Instead of showing the error only when user clicks the button, can we prevent showing the drawer item at all?
Maybe you can abstract the method to something like widgetAddingIsSupported() that uses the SDK check and uses the isRequestPinAppWidgetSupported and check for that before showing the UI.

I suggest instead of adding bunch of copy pastes, to use something like the initialMessages and filter it for the unread messages. Maybe filter the ones not from the current author?
val unreadMessages = initialMessages.filter { it.author != "me" }

If you don't have enough messages, you can add more (meaningful-ish) messages to the initialMessages

Try not to use direct colors, but use the tokens from the Theme

I'm not a fan of us not being able to format the text in any form. Showing the unformatted font looks unstyled :(

Thanks for your contribution! I've added my feedback, and +1 all of @mlykotom's points.

Are you expecting to add live data to the widget too, or only stick with static data?

title = LocalContext.current.getString(R.string.app_name_unreads),
)
}) {
val unreadMessage = unreadMessages

unreadMessages should be hoisted and passed into MessagesWidget from provideGlance.

Usually in a Glance Widget you will pass to your widget a repository and the widget can access flows in the composable function. Even though this is fakeData we should try to keep as much as possible to this pattern.

Column(modifier = GlanceModifier.clickable(actionStartActivity<NavActivity>()).fillMaxWidth()) {
Text(
text = message.author,
style = TextStyle(fontWeight = FontWeight.Bold)

add color = GlanceTheme.colors.onSurface to the TextStyle. This will make the colors update when you switch to dark mode.

You have a widget error layout but do not use it. Consider referencing it here with the errorUiLayout property or implementing onCompositionError
