Remarks

A class that describes a view hierarchy that can be displayed in another process. The hierarchy is inflated from a layout resource file, and this class provides some basic operations for modifying the content of the inflated hierarchy.

RemoteViews is limited to support for the following layouts:

<ul> <li>android.widget.AdapterViewFlipper</li> <li>android.widget.FrameLayout</li> <li>android.widget.GridLayout</li> <li>android.widget.GridView</li> <li>android.widget.LinearLayout</li> <li>android.widget.ListView</li> <li>android.widget.RelativeLayout</li> <li>android.widget.StackView</li> <li>android.widget.ViewFlipper</li> </ul>

And the following widgets:

<ul> <li>android.widget.AnalogClock</li> <li>android.widget.Button</li> <li>android.widget.Chronometer</li> <li>android.widget.ImageButton</li> <li>android.widget.ImageView</li> <li>android.widget.ProgressBar</li> <li>android.widget.TextClock</li> <li>android.widget.TextView</li> </ul>

As of API 31, the following widgets and layouts may also be used:

<ul> <li>android.widget.CheckBox</li> <li>android.widget.RadioButton</li> <li>android.widget.RadioGroup</li> <li>android.widget.Switch</li> </ul>

Descendants of these classes are not supported.
