I am developing an app widget with compose. I have a problem with getting string from resources. If I give text as a string like text = "Label", it is working properly. But if I give with stringResource, text is not shown, and I see this problem. Is there anyone who has faced this issue? Thank you

stringResource is part of Compose UI, so you can't use it in Glance. Glance's Text only takes resolved strings, you can retrieve it using LocalContext.current.

To change your example, this should work:

Text(text = LocalContext.current.getString(R.string.app_name))

Also, ensure that you're importing the Glance Text (androidx.glance.text.Text) and not the one from Material Compose UI (androidx.compose.material.Text)
