How to add a widget to the Android home screen from my app?

Question

I\'m writing an application which should be able to add widgets (just text boxes) to the home screen of the user\'s phone when the user instructs my app to do so. How can I

Answer 1

AFAIK default launcher app does not support this. The reason is that user should place everything on the home screen himself. Allowing to place widgets from an application would open doors for apps to "spam" user's home with their "useful" widgets.
