Editor's Overview

Cheese BTC Widget is a market & price application developed by Abel Lykens, packaged as a single Android APK of version 5.0 weighing in at 153.39 KB. The package targets Android 4.1+ and above. Below you'll find the publisher's own description, a quick spec sheet, and a short buyer-beware checklist so you know exactly what you're installing before tapping download.

Install Checklist

Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
File size is a light 153.39 KB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
This build is signed by "Abel Lykens" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

About this app

Cheese BTC Widget puts the latest Bitcoin price right on your home screen — nothing else, just a logo, a currency symbol, and the number.

When you add the widget you choose what to track: US Dollars, Euros, sats per USD, the constant 1 BTC, or the latest bitcoin block height. Each placed widget remembers its own choice, so you can have several side by side.

Data is fetched over HTTPS from price.cheeserobot.org/price/summary.json (the price data originates from CoinDesk). One round trip carries the current price, the 24-hour and 7-day history series, and the latest-block snapshot. The widget refreshes itself roughly every 30 minutes — Android's minimum update interval for app widgets — and you can tap it to refresh on demand.

Features
* Pick USD ($), EUR (€), sats per USD, 1 BTC, or the latest block height when adding the widget.
* Block-height mode shows the miner / pool name above the block number with a diagonal "stonks-go-up" line behind.
* Auto-sizing text fills the widget as large as it can.
* Optional faint chart background (24h or 7d window).
* Tap to refresh.
* Light/dark theme aware.
* If the network call fails, the widget shows "!" and posts a notification with the actual error reason (HTTP status, JSON shape, etc.) so you know what's wrong.

What this app is NOT
* No tracking. No ads. No analytics.
* No accounts, no signups, no Google services.
* Only one network host is contacted: price.cheeserobot.org. No third-party servers.
* No background services — only Android's normal widget update mechanism.
