# Widgets
|
|
|
|
Your sidebar is comprised of customizable widgets which allow you to preview and navigate your Objects.
|
|
|
|
By default, your sidebar only includes the space widget. You can find the Search button there, and if your space is a shared one, you will also find a button that will lead you to a list of all of your space members above it.

|
|
|
### Add New Widgets
|
|
|
|
In general, _any_ object you've created using Anytype's editor can be used as a widget and formatted using link or tree view. Queries and Collections - Objects in and of themselves - can be used as widgets with a list of objects contained therein.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Additionally, Anytype provides several options for _non-object_ widgets which you can add or remove from your sidebar, including:
|
|
|
|
* Favorites: All objects which you've starred as a favorite, regardless of object type
|
|
* [anytype-library.md](anytype-library.md "mention"): A place to quickly find all of your objects
|
|
* Recently edited: Your recently edited objects (globally synced across devices)
|
|
* Recently opened: Your recently opened objects (device-specific)
|
|
* [finding-your-objects.md](../../advanced/data-and-security/data-storage-and-deletion/finding-your-objects.md "mention"): All of your archived objects
|
|

|
|
|
|
You are also able to add any Type as a widget by navigating to the Suggested sub-menu when adding widgets:

|
|

|
### Customize your Sidebar Widgets
|
|
|
|
At the bottom of your sidebar you'll find an "Edit" button, which upon clicking will reveal options to add or remove widgets from your sidebar.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Clicking "Add" will give you the choice to choose your widget source. Again, a widget source can be any object you've previously created or the list of widget options above.
|
|
|
|
On desktop, you can also drag & drop objects directly into the sidebar.
|
|
|
|
### Adjust your Widget Appearance
|
|
|
|
Depending on the widget source, you can choose from a variety of layouts.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
It is possible to view widgets sourced from a single Object created in the editor (Pages, Notes, etc.) as a 'link' or a 'tree'. A link widget displays only the object name, whereas a tree widget displays all of objects connected to the source object by first and second-degree connections.
|
|
|
|
<figure><img src="../../.gitbook/assets/Screenshot 2023-08-18 at 09.01.31.png" alt="" width="563"><figcaption><p>Above, 'the 'Self' widget is displayed using tree view whereas the 'Home' widget is displayed using link view.</p></figcaption></figure>
|
|
|
|
When creating widgets from queries and collections on the other hands, you'll see the view options of 'List' or 'Compact list'. Both render a preview of objects contained within the given query/collection, with differences in line spacing and description previews.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
You can also simply choose Object view in the widget view settings for your widget to follow the query view layout.

### Mobile Widgets
|
|
|
|
#### Organizing your widgets
|
|
|
|
When you open your space on your mobile device you will see your current **Widgets** along with 3 navigation options at the bottom.
|
|
|
|
Your **Widgets** are customizable in the same way they are in the sidebar of your desktop application.
|
|
|
|
To edit and move your widgets around: scroll to the bottom of the list, where you'll find "Edit".
|
|
|
|
When you click the button, you'll see a small grey minus sign on the corner of each block. Now you can delete, add, or rearrange your widgets.
|
|
|
|
#### Using Widgets
|
|
|
|
The best way to customize and optimize your mobile usage of Anytype, widgets are your best friend.
|
|
|
|
Setting up your widgets for mobile allows you to create quick access and manage your preferred objects to visit.
|
|
|
|
Add specific Objects to the top for quick access.
|
|
|
|
Add Queries to your widgets, like task managers for a quick view of what's next to do.
