Description
Cheese BTC Widget puts the latest Bitcoin price right on your home screen — nothing else, just a logo, a currency symbol, and the number.
When you add the widget you choose what to track: US Dollars, Euros, sats per USD, the constant 1 BTC, or the latest bitcoin block height. Each placed widget remembers its own choice, so you can have several side by side.
Data is fetched over HTTPS from price.cheeserobot.org/price/summary.json (the price data originates from CoinDesk). One round trip carries the current price, the 24-hour and 7-day history series, and the latest-block snapshot. The widget refreshes itself roughly every 30 minutes — Android's minimum update interval for app widgets — and you can tap it to refresh on demand.
Features
• Pick USD ($), EUR (€), sats per USD, 1 BTC, or the latest block height when adding the widget.
• Block-height mode shows the miner / pool name above the block number with a diagonal "stonks-go-up" line behind.
• Auto-sizing text fills the widget as large as it can.
• Optional faint chart background (24h or 7d window).
• Tap to refresh.
• Light/dark theme aware.
• If the network call fails, the widget shows "!" and posts a notification with the actual error reason (HTTP status, JSON shape, etc.) so you know what's wrong.
What this app is NOT
• No tracking. No ads. No analytics.
• No accounts, no signups, no Google services.
• Only one network host is contacted: price.cheeserobot.org. No third-party servers.
• No background services — only Android's normal widget update mechanism.
