Could you also consider adding an alternate large version of the widget for use while driving? an "Xiialive - Main (Large)" widget? The current Next/Previous buttons are pretty small targets to tap with just a brief look when you're keeping your eyes on the road. It works better for changing stations than separate shortcuts to a lot of favorites, but I still frequently miss.
Hopefully it wouldn't take much extra coding, maybe just use a larger image resource with the current widget's code.
It seems the Android Home screen has an 8 rows x 4 columns grid for widgets (at least on my phone) and your "Main" widget occupies 2 rows x 4 columns. What if you also had a larger 4x4 version, with LARGE Previous/Next buttons in the 2 bottom rows (2 rows x 2 columns each) that would be easy to tap without looking closely? The top row could have the Play/Stop button (and maybe also a Tag button), with the Station/Song info in the 2nd row as a buffer zone for slightly off target taps.
