Haven't really built widgets before, but I need to build my first one and I want to use compose. Can anyone confirm or deny the ability to make have text input field in a widget?

Essentially I want my todo list app to have a widget for quick todo item entry without having to open up the app.

android.widget.RemoteViews doesn't support android.widget.EditText, not much Glance can do about it

Thanks for short-cicruiting me!

Just echoing what @ephemient said, I think apps just launch an activity where they can have text input fields, see for example the widget for Google Tasks
