It's funny how these things always follow the same pattern: iMessage gets the feature first, and then Google Messages finally catches up years later. Better late than never, I suppose!

I'm glad you brought that up. Are you referring to the half-baked Google widgets that Google essentially abandoned, only bothering to revive and overhaul them once Apple released their own polished versions?
Yes, that is exactly what happened. Google heavily revived and overhauled its own widgets after Apple introduced its redesigned, highly polished widgets in iOS 14 back in 2020.
While Android technically pioneered home screen widgets all the way back in 2008, Google had largely neglected them for years. They were frequently inconsistent, unpolished, and ignored by developers. When Apple introduced uniform, highly aesthetic, and carefully structured widgets to the iPhone, it triggered a massive cultural trend of home screen customization.
Conveniently leaving out actual history, aren't we Tuga? Apple didn't 'pioneer' or 'polish' a new concept—they literally spent a decade catching up to what Android had natively since the G1 days, right down to finally adopting a grid system. Apple fangirls, that's you btw, love to rewrite the timeline, acting like delayed adoption equals "innovation" just because it finally got wrapped in iOS marketing. Android built the entire ecosystem foundation that Cupertino spent years quietly taking notes on. Copied, pasted, and late to the party—as usual. 😏
This is what I mean with people like you and Android users. Even with facts from Google and everywhere else, you guys still deny it. That’s another level of ignorance. I’m sorry, dude, it’s a fact google could care less about widgets until apple released theirs.
Once again ill remind you Android Users = FANGIRLS. Thats name is in your head for sure now.

Sort of like how Apple FINALLY got widgets after Android has had them for decades?

Once again FACTS are FACTS.
