[Swati4star]

We already have checklist utility in our application. Create a widget for the same.

Any UI idea on it?

[Swati4star]

Similar to google keep. You can check this issue #300

[Swati4star]

Are you working on it @santoshhiremani ?

[santoshhiremani]

Yes, I'm working on it....

[santoshhiremani]

What need to show on widget...?

[Swati4star]

Make it something like that in the screenshot. On clicking any item, just open the app & then checklist.
Instead of Pinned, show Travel Mate. Ignore the +` icon

AppWidgetProvider doesn't support checkbox, I could able to create listview here. Also there is difficulty to read Room persistence from detached fragments, Can i use shared preference to keep a copy of selected items

[Swati4star]

Sure. You can use these. Just show a listview for the time being, we will see about adding the checkboxes later. @santoshhiremani
