HTTP Request Widget - One Click HTTP(S) Requests

"HTTP Request Widget" is an Android app that allows users to create home screen widgets that send HTTP and HTTPS requests with a single tap. The app operates without a permanently running background process, handling requests only when initiated by the user. It supports both POST and GET requests, and since version 1.10, users can customize HTTP headers. For any bug reports or suggestions, users can easily reach out via email.

Attention: Widgets are, as usual, created from your home screen, not in this app!

This app allows you to create widgets which can make http(s) requests in the background.

It doesn't use a permanently running background process. You request is done in background, but only if you made one.

HTTP post and get requests are supported, since version 1.10 you can change HTTP-Header as well.

For any bug reports or suggestions please get in touch with me via email!

I like it, but sometimes the widget dissappear from the screen, and you have to setup them again, no matter that they can be found in the app.

Working as expected. But I'm having some trouble adding more than 1 widget for different requests. Any solution on that? Edit:- I'm using realme U1(RMX 1831) running Android 9. And the realme OS is restricting apps to add more than 1 widget
