# Widgets (app)
Widgets are pre-designed pieces of Graphic User Interface. Each widget performs a specific input/output function when communicating with your hardware or end-user.
Widgets can be found in the **Widget Box.** While in dev mode scroll the list and tap on the Widget you need to add it to the Grid. Tap the Widget to set it up.
There are 5 major types of widgets:
* **Header widgets** – UI elements that can be added to the header of your device dashboard.
* **Controllers** – UI elements used to send data to hardware. For example: buttons, switches, sliders, joysticks, etc.
* **Displays** – UI elements used to visualize the incoming data. LEDs, Charts, Gauges. etc.
* **Interface** – Elements to build user-friendly UI. Tabs, Drop-down menus, various inputs, etc.
* **Other** – special widgets that don't belong to any category.
Widgets availability is based on the plans and corresponding limits.
