Don't want to call it a "request", because I'm not sure if this is already out of scope - but it would be amazing (and something that would fit very well for the minimalistic approach of this launcher).
General idea
I noticed that I use different widgets at different times of the day. E.g. in the morning I want to know the weather and maybe some traffic information for my commute. During office hours I need more work-focused widgets and in the evening I might need my shopping list or a fitness widget for my training routine. Currently this would lead to a very long list of widgets to scroll through. So I was wondering: What if I could define "widget sets" together with some condition which set should be displayed. So I would create a "morning set" which is displayed from 6 to 10 and after that my "work set" is displayed.
How could this work?
Defining those "sets" could work in the same way like you currently edit widgets. But instead of just editing one set of widgets you'd have the option to start new blank sets and save them.
Than you'd have the option to attach some "conditions" to each set. One could start small with just time and day of the week, but also other conditions would be thinkable: Show widget-sets depending on location, show a special widget set while your headphones or your smartwatch are connected,... There are some apps out there that have such condition-systems that work quite well. Smartspacer or Tasker come to mind - those aren't launcher but the systems could work in a similar way.
When swiping up on the home screen the launcher would go through those sets in order and show the first set where all the conditions are met.
I know this is nothing you hack together in an afternoon, but I think this could greatly improve Kvaestso - and it is something I haven't seen in any other launcher so far.
And come to think of it: If building such a condition-system is too much, an alternative might be to just have the different widget-sets and let tasker or a similar app handle the conditions and trigger the set-change.
That's actually a pretty cool idea. I don't have the time to build this right now, but I will put it on my "maybe someday" list and I'll keep it in mind when I touch the widgets in the future.
