I don't think @Quinman16 was talking about this type of widget. I think he was referring to the disposable widgets on the phone's home screen.

While App Inventor has certainly evolved a lot since 2020, I don't think it's mature enough to reach this level of development. However, I think it would be more the role of extensions than native components to display widgets...
