I was going through app wigets tutorials from android official site.It says App widgets are

App Widgets are miniature application views that can be embedded in 
other  applications (such as the Home screen) and receive updates.

It defines it as views than can be embedded in other "applications" such as homescreen.It doesn't say just homescreen but applications such as homescreen.So i just want to know are there any other places where we can add app widget other than homescreen. Like adding other app widget to my application.

Any app can choose to use `AppWidgetHost` and related classes to support app widgets. Few apps outside of home screens do. – CommonsWare Nov 15 '16 at 19:43
are there any realtime apps which shows this feature. – Rajesh Gosemath Nov 15 '16 at 20:21
I have no idea what "realtime apps" are. While most likely there are non-home screen apps that host app widgets, I cannot name any off the top of my head. – CommonsWare Nov 15 '16 at 20:41
