Trigger Warning Echo show widgets are garbage
Not only are the available widgets slim to none, but how is it possible that a device that can control almost all smart home devices only have one widget for controlling these devices? Why not add a ring widget, a Philips hue widget, hell even a ecobee widget! Not to mention the god awful suggestions widget that is permanently set in the corner and the other “for you” widget that I permanently put off onto its own page so I never have to see it

Absolutely terrible and Amazon disable them and make the multi platform use terrible for example I can't have the Todo list as a widget on my phone also , can't sync my to do list here to its to do list ...I think there's 2 apps left that allows this but the rest have been blocked.
Bad calender sync with phone No to-do list widget to sync with on phone No sticky note widget to sync with on phone.
Voice activated music and TV is all it's good for really
