the Icon for the alarm clock keeps time! - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Maybe this has been an android thing or a while but i had not see it before and very cool...
So i put the icon for the alarm clock on my desktop ...the Icon itself is a stylized analog clock face
I just noticed that the two hands on the clock icon actually move and keep the correct time !

it's been there on samsung devices atleast for a while. I saw this first on my note 5

Yes, i found this out sometime last year. People thought i was crazy until they understood what i was saying.
The calendar app says the date and clock says the time.

That explains why hadn't seen before just upgraded from a Note 4
The Clock and Calendar icons being like that is just a really nice touch

yeah. that was cool. and I like all other icons on s8+ but I like note 5 clock and calender icons more.

Clock similar to Beautiful Widgets with NO weather

I am looking for a clock widget that may be similar to beautiful widgets however I do not need the weather part. I just need a quality clock widget.
Any ideas?
[edit] the overall lack of quality clock widgets for android is bizarre
you can hide the weather on beautiful widgets

No Weather Skin for Beautiful Widgets
Look for the "None" skin under "menu, skins, download skins"
'Retro clock' on the market.
with the new update you can hide the weather. see attached
Looking for this as well. A clock widget that looks like Beautiful Widgets without any weather info (not just invisible icons)
I have Digital Clock widget from Maizehttp://www.appbrain.com/app/com.maize.digitalClock
Which would be GREAT if I could change the font to the same as the nexus lock screen clock.

Agreed. I use the digital clock widget mentioned above. No changing of the font though.
I prefer to use weatherbug elite's widget and don't need two homescreen weather icons/info.

Is there an option to change the am/pm position to the right? In all screenshots I've seen, it's on the left of the time..
I can't even get it to display AM/PM
Of course as soon as I say that I get it to work.

I'd like to just have the clock without the weather nor the date either, but not sure if there is anything out there.

Not yet give it a little bit and I'm sure there will be quite a few out there at least six different styles
Maybe this will fit

Android Clock Widget!

Can someone please make a widget of the Android Clock? The font that it uses looks awesome. The widget should simply show the time and date in the same font (exactly as it looks in the actual clock app) so we can put it on our homescreen. It looks better, IMO, than the HTC widget.
Additionally, maybe there should be 2 options so we can choose if it should show the weather with the time and date (as it does in the actual app) or just show the time and date.
I can't believe that there isn't already such a widget. I'll even pay $1.00 for it.
Thanks in advance.
Bump. Please someone make this.
can u provide a shot of that font and clock i have no idea wat ur talking about lol
lol Sorry about that. Image attached.
That looks like Beautiful Widgets Home clock & weather. If it is not it is very very similar.

CHT widget B&L_Group Alarm Widget v.2

CHT widget B&L_Group Alarm Widget v.2​
Description: The new widget Alarms. Works with alarms Windows, Klaxon (at the level of alarm clocks Windows), SPBTime, G-Alarm. Displayed on the screen 3 alarm (number of windows), while if more than 3 SPBTime alarms will be displayed last (otherwise do not work). Each alarm has 2 tap zones:
- Bell - takes you into the program alarms (Windows or SPBTime) depending on what you have set the widget
- Switch - on and off the appropriate alarm
and long-term depression at any place the widget updates on all the alarm clocks Old
If the second or third alarm will not name it then automatically they will be hidden from the screen as missing. The first one will always hang, even if in all the alarm will not name (just because then the widget does not make sense).
Days of the week when the alarm is displayed, depending on what days of his work plus the Saturday and Sunday highlighted in blue in red, inactive days are gray.
There is an opportunity to move, resize, and dock.
Compatible with other widgets.
Any alarm of any program should have a title (description).

Your awesome <3
Thanks for your works =')
Thnkyou MoonNah for this great widget. Unfortunately i am getting some problems. I use WM, but does not show properly. Will upload some screens.
When i tap only switch on the 2nd alarm (8:55) and when tap again nothing change. The switch in the widget never shows on. When i put on the 3 alarms in WM nothing change in the widget.
My device in Leo, WM6.5.5, Spanish rom with manila 2.5.2016
EDIT: AFTER ADD DESCRIPTIONS THE WIDGET WORKS FINE. THANK AGAIN
Yesterday I was sad because you said GAlarm would not be there. Today I AM HAPPY
Another great widget. Just two questions - how do you get the time to next alarm showing in the widget? And what are the image names for the alarm on/alarm off png's?

Values for the alarms I'm taking out the registry keys related programs.
All images are in the widget folder Program Files\BL_Group_Alarm
Moonah, just to say thanks again for this. Works brilliantly with GAlarm (I'm using 2.6). I did have a little odd behaviour when toggling alarms on/off the very first time where I toggled the third alarm off and both 1 and 3 switched off. Since then though all has been working great.
So easy to skin as well without having to mess around with CFCGUI
I might edit the mode9 slightly to move the alarm time and name up slightly (away from the days of the week) and reduce the text size for them very slightly.
BIGTHX ....again great work
I changed a little for me
thank you so much for this.......
Hi MoonNah,
will analyze and test it in the evening. I knew it
UPDATE:
very good work MoonNah, but one question.
Why you use morscript? Because i don't have a folder named \Program Files\TitaniumWeather\MortScript.exe. In dutch it is \Programmabestanden, and i don't have TitaniumWeather installed, because i don't use the weather widget . Or is this left from the weather widget an it is only an acident? Sometimes this happens to me too.

just forgot to remove the registry keys from the cab The alarm clock mortskript not used, there I wrote an application in C #
Began work on a widget birthdays, and started testing a new widget for mortskript weather, such as 500 error no longer shows. For one, will spend two days testing and lay out a new version of the weather widget.

Does anybody know the name of this clock-widget?

Hi,
I really thought I was up-to-date with all theming related widgets and apps..but today I saw this picture of a clock widget with reflections and customizable colors plus customizable shades!!!
My dream of a clock widget! As far as I know even the great chronotopia clock widget can "just" rotate, but not do reflections....
Does anybody know what widget this is?
thanks!
Notice the IPhone maybe? But it looks like a lwp not just a clock. Try out wp clock

yes- maybe it is just an iphone app... but it is definitely not an lwp.
Because its from an blog for phone styles and the wall is free to download without any widget...
I guess its a themed widget of an iphone app...

Just now saw this. I think you can do this with Chronotopia. Granted I haven't tried it but this is how I would go about it. Duplicate the clock, rotate it so it's upside down. Then in the gradient make it so the alpha blend is 0 at the bottom (or top since it is rotated). That should do the trick, you can also adjust the x position of the gradient to make it fade out faster or slower. Hit me up if you need more help or let me know if it works.

yep its an absolutely an AMAZING piece of apps. love it except for the fact the weather doesnt update correctly or on time. even though i set it update every hour
yesterday it was p***ing it down in brum, but it says it was 23c and clear
the forecast weather doesnt change in the morning, it takes up to two hours to change. if i want it to change i have to enter my location again
if it have an refresh button or something it would be perfect
