+It seems that battery optimization against Termux:API is the problem. Disabling the **Settings** => **DuraSpeed** option for all the system solved the problem. Unfortunately at the moment there is not an option to disable DuraSpeed for Termux:API only.

+It turned out that installing the Termux:Widget app into the **external SD card** is the problem. From **Settings** => **Storage** => **SD Card** => **Apps** => **Termux:Widget** => **Storage used** => **Change** it is possible to move the app to the internal shared storage.

 After some time of usage the widget suddendly stops working. Pressing the reload icon does not longer show the "Termux shortucts reloaded" toast. Tapping anyone of the items does not start the relevant script. Sometimes the list of items resets itself, displaying the "No files in $HOME/.shortcuts/" .

+The problem is caused by battery optimization: disabling the **Settings** => **DuraSpeed** option solves the problem. Starting from Termux:Widget version 0.13.0 it is possibile to disable DuraSpeed for the app only, leaving it enabled for the other apps.

+Starting from Android 10 the **Termux:Widget** requires that Termux app gets the permission to **draw over other apps**, otherwise it cannot start a terminal session from the background. Unfortunately some Android versions deny to grant such permission to Termux... FIXME add the error message here.
