Where Does KWGT Store Widgets and Backups?
KWGT keeps widgets, wallpapers, and fonts in a Kustom folder on shared storage as portable .kwgt files.
Last updated
KWGT stores everything as files in a Kustom folder on shared storage. Widgets live as .kwgt presets under widgets, wallpapers under wallpapers, with fonts and icon packs beside them. Copy the folder and your whole setup travels.
Each preset is self contained, which makes single widget sharing trivial: hand over one .kwgt file. The app's own settings stay in private storage, so a migrated Kustom folder restores designs but not preferences. Export anything precious before uninstalling, since private data goes with the app.
Where KWGT stores this, by platform
Internal storage/Kustom/widgets (*.kwgt)
Widget presets, one .kwgt file each. Wallpapers sit in Kustom/wallpapers, fonts in Kustom/fonts. Back up the whole Kustom folder to a PC before wiping. KLWP uses the same parent folder with its own subfolders.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move KWGT widgets to a new phone?
Copy the entire Kustom folder to the same storage on the new phone and reinstall KWGT. Presets appear ready to place. Re-grant storage permission first or the app will not see the folder.
How do I share one KWGT widget?
Send its .kwgt file from Kustom/widgets. The recipient drops it into their own widgets folder and loads it. Fonts used by the widget may need sharing separately if they are custom.
