Btw, we very strongly avoid looking at widgets as "mini applications" which is where people often are coming from when they ask these questions. That is not what they are for. If you want to do something highly interactive with the user, you should be doing it in your own activity. You could have a widget for a low-fidelity summary on the home screen that the user can tap to enter your high-fidelity activity. You can put your activity on the wallpaper to have a very clean transition from the home screen to the activity (very much feeling like they are part of the same thing).
