Intro It's not possible to include custom views in app widgets. According to documentation only small predefined

So I decided to switch to just one TextView an use Spannables instead which should be generally a better solution in all circumstances. That means I needed to remove the single line property from my TextView -> in order to be able to wrap the line before starting
