Hi, I really like this app.
ReplyDeleteI would like to report that the widget's clock update speed is still too low (on low end devices) even if you change advanced settings and put update speed to 100.
I also have a request: is it possible to add hourly forecasts in the weather page (where you can see the 4 days forecast)?
Other than that... Good job!!
And many thanks for creating this free app!
The speed of the widget depends on the speed of your device. There are also times that a very high speed setting produces the opposite result, ie, animation looks broken. Try decreasing the animation speed value and see if it is better.
DeleteRegarding the weather forecast, I am looking for another weather server that could provide more detailed weather forecast.
I would like to ask what is the weather provider for this application.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes

Thanks for your answer. I will check the settings and let you know.
ReplyDeleteFor the provider this is free, precise, reliable and detailed (48 hours hourly forecast!)
http://www.yr.no
Yes, www.yr.no provides precise weather forecast. But, sometimes, the provider delays with providing the current temperature. Maybe it is the case since the forecast given in www.yr.no is given at intervals of 3 hours, instead at 1 hour. Maybe, you can consider giving possibility to users to choose between more than one weather provider. The free provider www.weather2umbrella.com also gives very accurate (hourly) forecast.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I tried a lot of similar applications, and I can say (and recommend) that this is one of the best clock&weather application, very stylish and realiable.
Thank you for the information. The weather provider needs to provide an API to developers (i.e. a way to programmatically access their data). The server you mention does not seem to do that. Nevertheless, I am working on implementing a different weather server that will be reliable, accurate and provide detailed weather forecast; it will not be free but it will be a good solution for the future.
DeleteI have Motorola Droid Maxx. Can't figure out how to enlarge the widget on my home screen.
ReplyDeletePlease check the information on this link and email me if you have any more problems.
DeleteHello, I use v.0.37 and I give rating 5/5 stars.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations and thanks for this excellent application. Almost identical to the original htc application, but offers much more customization.
I’m a fan of htc sense and my previous phone was Htc Wildfire S.
Now I use this great application on Prestigio 4055 (OS 4.1.1, Dual-core 1.2 GHz, 512MB RAM), more than 3 months and it works great. This phone has mostly native Google widgets without of too much customization choices available, but thanks to you my favorite clock with weather is again on my home screen.
Actually I have noticed only one small bug: if I do manual update with touching the temperature or location and then open the page with the detailed weather conditions, after that if I remove from the list of recent apps, the weather data returns to previous update. On automatic update everything's fine.
This small bug is no big deal and I no complaints, I would like to report only to know. Also when I remove from the list of recent apps, RAM memory usage descends from 30-40 MB to 5-6 MB.
Also I tested the application “Transparent clock & weather”. It works well on this phone, but unlike “Sense V2 Flip Clock & Weather” consumes more memory (about 11-25MB, sometimes up to 40MB with Enableed optimizations.
One suggestion: Think about upgrading which could flip background clock numbers, could change to dark gray color and the numbers of the clock in red or blue. Just like HTC Desire 200.
Thanks. I will check the problem with manual updating and try adding new skins with the colors you mention in a future update.
DeleteHello Droid27, this is the best clock and weather widget
DeleteI am pleased that you have reviewed my suggestion (dark flip background with red numbers), and I’m grateful that you will try to add it as a new skin.
Today I updated in version 0.49 and the small bug on manual update which I reported, now is disappear. I noticed a difference in log files folder on SD Card. Now is missing a one old log file, and is create new one "locations.tmp".
On the additional option “Animate on unlock” not see the difference on the way of working on flip animation, only see the possibility to ON or OFF flip animation after unlock the screen.
I noticed a new bug on Weather forecast layout when is in portrait position.
On the text below the 4 days weather icons missing second word (for ex. instead of standing “Partly cloudy” stands only “Partly”). In earlier version (0.37) I could scrolling and see the second word “cloudy” which was below “Partly”. Now Weather forecast layout is fixed, no possibility for scrolling and on weather icons is missing second word. On landscape position is no problem, two words are in one line.
Best Regards,
Don't forget, for me still this is the best clock and weather widget!
I highly recommend.
Thanks for reporting again.
DeleteThe weather forecast screen problem will be fixed in the next update (I am already aware of it).
Regarding the animate on unlock option, that is useful for phones that have specific custom lock screens - if animate on unlock is checked on these type of phones, time does not update (the custom lock screen does not send the Unlock signal).
I am using Lenovo K5 note and animate on unlock is not working through the option to animate on unlock is checked. Please suggest
ReplyDeleteThank you for the feedback.
DeleteThis could be due to how your device handles the user present/ unlock process. We will check and see if there is something that can be done to correct this. Make sure you receive all future updates and let us know if you have any more problems.
