[android-developers] Re: create app that comes with a widget and the program

Thanks Mark for your answer, maybe I didn't make myself very clear,
the widget is the application, when added to home screen it launches a
configuration activity to let the user set his/her preferences, after
that's done it will run a service updating the widget. If you click
the widget you will go to the actual app and do stuff with it...
The thing is that I also want the user to be able to choose between
adding having the widget feature on the home screen(by menu/add/
widgets/theAppAsWidget... ) or just the static app(by menu/add/
shortcut/program/theApp... ), maybe they have enough services running
on the backgroung and do not want another as it will use more battery.
I have seen this used on many apps and I thing is good to implemented
as battery life on these phones is not great.

Thanks again
Alberto

PD: By the way I have read your book(the advance) and is really good,
are you publishing a new one soon? :-)
