Use Rich Text widgets to add text to an app Home page. You can use a Rich Text widget to add information such as announcements, include instructions or reminders, or present images such as a company logo.

## Create a Rich Text widget

To add a Rich Text widget, [edit the app Home page](/v1/docs/customize-the-app-home-page). Drag the Rich Text widget from the Widget Gallery to the position you want.

## Enter content in the Rich Text widget

When you place the Rich Text widget on the page, the editing toolbar will automatically open, and it will open any time you attempt to edit the text in the widget.
