A minimalist wallpaper can be an excellent option for your home screen setup as it offers a simple backdrop for your widgets and icons to shine.

Locate the kwgt widget by scrolling down and move it to the desired location. To launch the kwgt widget maker app, tap on the empty kwgt widget. Once opened, select "widget - AT 033", "widget - AT 069", and "widget - AT 023". After selecting the widgets, place them on the Home Screen as demonstrated in the Thumbnail.
