This app is easily one of the best apps I have tried, it's just too bad that since version 5.0 I cannot use it on my phone (Nexus 4, CRDroid, Android 7.1.2), due to it crashing all the time.
I had already created an issue report on GitHub, before I had realized that you had created a forum thread on XDA.

Sorry about being in two places at once, I had just tested it out and I can confirm that the bug is squashed, at the expense of 3 minor bugs being introduced, two of which are not easily reproduced without prior knowledge of them (I had found it out by accident).
Where would you prefer that I post about them, here, or on GitHub?

Those of you who don't mind, please leave a small comment in the Android Market, along with a rating that you find appropriate (but please avoid bad reviews and low ratings, if you have a problem with the app, ask first). If you do not have the patience to leave a comment, use the phone's Market app to simply rate my app (I believe you can't just rate online, you are obliged to comment, but I'm not sure).
And if you don't mind sharing the Market application link in all your social networks (or only the ones you prefer), I'll be forever grateful.
Thanks in advance to everyone for their support.

Nice app. I like the clean UI.
Nice app, has a lot of potential!
Keep Going!
Good work, keep going
Tried a few similar apps like this one in the past... Definitely like this one the most. However, one feature that I wish was added is the ability to add our own, custom icons. Will that feature ever be included in the feature?

I missed this post, sorry for a late reply...
Well, I appreciate your help but right now I'm not thinking about translations. It would probably help me and more people would probably use it...
But...
I have lots of features planned and lots of releases will come in the near future, it would be a pain to maintain translations done by other people. I would have to wait for them to finish their translation before being able to release a new version.
For now, I want to avoid that. When the app reaches a more mature state, I'll think about adding a couple more languages.
Again, thanks for your help anyway.
Is there any updates for this app?

[App][12.11.2012][V2.3.2 Release] AmberHome Weather

AmberHome Weather is a weather app that will show weather forecast data from the yr.no weather feed.
Release version now available in PlayStoreAmberHome Weather Free
Pro Version: AmberHome Weather Plus
Additional Iconsets: AmberHome Weather IconSets
I would be glad if you can test this app and tell me how you like it.
If you want to help to translate the app please register at GetLocalization.com and then go to this URL: AHWeather at GetLocalization
Translating the app should be very easy with this great community web tool. Thanks for your help.
If you like you can visit the AmberHome blog where I will add some news from time to time and follow me on Google+ if you like.
Unlike other weather apps AHWeather does not depend on cities. Every location in the world can be used, just search for it. The location search is the standard Android geolocation search and it is very powerful. You can edit some data for a location like name and country name. Additionally there is a field for the altitude of the location. Normally you can leave this to 0 which means the weather site will choose the altitude itself. Maybe this field will be removed for the release version since for most cases it is not needed.
About the weather data:
The weather data comes from yr.no, delivered by the Norwegian Meteorological Institute and the NRK. Yr.no is one of the last weather sites that provide weather data for free even for commercial use. Unlike some other weather feeds yr.no only has forecast data and no current condition! This means that everywhere in the app where current conditions are displayed (like in the widget) this is calculated from forecast data and may be several hours old. Most time this is not as accurate as in other apps which request weather data from nearby weather stations.
The weather forecast is very accurate in Europe but I have no idea how good it is in other regions of the world. Some tests I have made like requesting weather data in israel etc. looks quite good. Please tell me how accurate the weather forecast is in your region.
In some locations (mainly northern europe) there is hourly forcast data for the next 48 hours. In all other regions of the world there is 3 hour forecast instead.
Planned features for later versions:
tablet layouts
more widgets
weather chart
location based weather
...
Known bugs:
If you permanently rotate the screen, after some time (about 25 rotations on my device) the app will FC with an out of memory error. I think this is a general Android problem and can't be fixed easily.
On some devices if you rotate your home screen, the widget will not update immediately. This is because I hit a Android widget limitation with bitmaps. I hope to fix this in the next release.

Great start, but the layout seem quite of somehow. I doesn't like the background color and I would like to have it more simple a less cluttered. Like the choice of weather service, the Norwegians knows the weather in Sweden better than we do our self .

Normally it should work. Try to search for "<cityname> usa" or something. It should even find small villages with a few houses.
Location based weather is planned for a later release.
I live in the Boonies and it finds me just fine. My town doesn't have stop lights.
The barometer could be in inches though. That's the only gripe I have.

Added Beta 4 version to the first post.
This version adds german translations to the app. If you want to help me translate this app to other languages, please contact me.
I think this one is close to a release candidate.
Thank you all for testing.
Great app, thank you. Will test it.
Very good app! running fine on CM9
Added 2.0 Beta5 to first post.
This version has a complete redesign of the widget. It is still not perfect but should scale better on different resolutions and should work better on ICS and up.
Couple feature suggestion
1. Re-sizable widget for touchwiz (or 5x1 widget )
2. Transparent widget
Works pretty fast on galaxy note,
1st version released to play store
The first version is now released to play store.
Additionally I added the release version to the first post.
Thanks to all testers and stay tuned. If new beta versions are available I will post them here.
Very nice. Only suggestion I have is to offer different weather icons.
Net me try the apps

Swipe down to refresh is already in the "features to be added" list. Next release will have this done. Also photo uploading will be available in next release. There will not be much options in the Lite version (this) but there will be some nice customizations options in the pro version. BTW, I removed the apk from download section by mistake. Coming back online soon. Don't know why xda says: Missing or incorrect project info....

LoL. There's nothing in the app . Avast make me laugh. Avast has been blamed some time ago for spying users using adware... try with other antivirus app. I just scanned my whole system and AVG Pro says nothing found... The app uses simple WebView to display 3 tabs only. Nothing else. I'm available if any moderator wants to get my project and check the code. And BTW this project is going on github soon...
EDIT: I just installed Avast antivirus and it says my Wi-Fi (home router) can be dangerous just because it wanted to scan the Wi-Fi connection. Maybe that's what it wanted to say... You should click on that notification and let it scan...
EDIT 2: I attached a screenshot. Please check it. These are the results from Avast scan. It says that there are two issue in my Settings. 1- Debug USB is active 2- App installation from unknown sources is enabled. LoL try to scan...
Updated to v1.2 with some important changes. Check the first reserved post for changelog.
Hello everybody,
I'm really excited about this app. I want to thank you all who gave it a try . The number of users has increased significantly beginning from the first day, 27/05/2016 at 4:51 PM Europe time. Today it's 30/05/2016 13:31 Europe time and we are counting 210 users. That's awesome. 210 users in three days on my first app is really satisfying . A big thank you to all of you guys. You are awesome :*
Important update coming in next days (hopefully in the next 2 days)
Which new features will be added?
※ Dark theme should be added
※ Some settings stuff should be available
※ Some none used lines of codes should be removed to reduce app side
※ Some performance tweaks
※ Some webview popup tweaks
Stay tuned

Sounds useful, I'll give it a go if I have the time....

I hope it won't take a lot of time to implement all these functions. Next week I will clean up everything and try to send the update before next weekend. Mean while I will send a minor update to introduce Drak Mode, G+ and Tumblr in the PRO version and Dark Mode in the Lite version...

Well, combining Lite and Pro and introducing in-app purchase to unlock features sounds something really hard to me (by hard I mean these requires a lot of work) which means I'm not sure if I will make that available.
I think it's better for me to keep both versions separate. And it's better for those who already bought the PRO. If I remove the PRO version and create just one with in-app purchases than it will be a hard process to move these users to the new version with all features unlocked and the process will be hard. Frankly, I don't even know how I will deal with that process... So now, betraying my own words, I think you should go ahead and buy the PRO version now.
The PRO version will receive significant updates and will be improved better. And yeah next major release (probably before next weekend) will have the tabs rearrangement but I'm not really sure to make it work before next weekend.
Hopefully on this Sunday I will release a minor update of the PRO version with G+, Tumblr, Dark Theme.
It's up to you to decide when you will buy it...

Sapphyx Launcher- A launcher built for you in mind

This is simply the sequel to my last launcher project, Sapphire Launcher. I started this project last August and began the beta in June of this year. So, Instead of boring you with a story of how I started and what an android launcher is, I will start with what is important to know before you post any comments.
Sapphyx Launcher is not intended to be another Pixel based Launcher. I provide the settings needed to transform the launcher from the "Pixel" interface back to the original launcherinterface. I am not a code junky, this is a learning project for me to learn how to properly use Google Services, Firebase, Analytics, Communicate properly with the user base and community on Google Plus, learn android from within the launcher application and provide cool customization options to your android device. Sapphyx is for Android 6.0 and above because of the code structure I use and the performance I promise.
Sapphyx Launcher is my vision of what I would call an original launcher. Its the kind of experience that slaps you in the face alittle bit to get you thinking why havn't other developers taken up such originality in their homescreen replacement projects. Like my old custom roms (Bionx Roms), i promise a unique experience and a very good customer feedback appreciation program. The launcher, like many other custom launchers, offer customization to pretty much everything. Label text size and color, grid options, toggling views and menus, unique navigation from point A to point B, material user interface, Context Pages, Gestures, Notification bubbles and more! Sapphyx Launcher has been called the ADW of its time as it brings back memories of my current users of the original ADW launcher from gingerbread with the amount of options that are offered. In Sapphyx Launcher, I offer a unique and exclusive feature called Context Pages (Now available in the latest beta) which are my replacement of a swipe to left add on. These pages offer different tools, features and shortcuts to daily tasked completed by the user. Sapphyx Launcher is a premium application and requires a license to use some of the advanced options. I also offer free license to users on certain occasions. Sapphyx Launcher is fully optimized for 64bit environment and Snapdragon chipsets.
MAIN FEATURES (Based on latest beta release)
-Transitional Themeing
-Notification Bubbles
-Homescreen Customization
-Dock Preferences
-Folder Preferences
-Unique Launcher Drawer with toolbar
-Context Pages (With Chooser)
-Unique Wallpaper manager
-Powerful Launcher Settings
-Google Services and Firebase
-Fabric Error Reporting
And more...
If a Licensed is missing, its because I am still testing the code and determining if its reliable for my project. I have no intentions to add Google Now or Oreo features. I may create my own implementation of something similar going forward if requested.
I urge you to join the Google Plus Group as that is my home and where I will be posting majority of what I am working on and previews and also you can sign up from for beta build releases.

Rollouts/Updates
Sapphyx Launcher will be distributed in 3 ways. On Google Play, users have a choice of the stable channel and beta channel. The stable channel will distribute builds that are dependable, less buggy and user friendly. Beta builds will have experimental settings, have relatively new features readying for the stable channel and is open.
Xda Labs will feature dev preview builds in the Alpha Channel, mirrored beta versions and stable versions.
The Google Play Rating system for beta builds point users to this forum.
Ratings
I take the rating system seriously. If you abuse the system you will be pointed out or ignored. If you call out a user or developer, i will call you out publicly. Rate the application based on its performance, its features and reliability. Not what you think it should be or what you want it to be. Do not demand features.
License
I may not include license to a 3rd party resource if i am testing it or its relatively new. A license will be included if its solid and dependable and plan to be kept in the project.
#first!! Excellent launcher bro!!
Hoping to have the final beta update out before the end of August. After that, the next update after that will begin locking features and settings and users will be required to purchase either my premium or onyx license key (no difference except value and support). A handful of features will stay unlocked like icon editing and icon pack support.

I am currently working on a way to lock it out for users who don't like the intentions of it. Its based on a Drawer layout thus the launcher layout is placed inside of it so its not something i can just disable with a view toggle. I have to find a way to lock the drawer from being accessed. Right now, its i provided an enforced lock toggle. Yes, this is a priority im working on.
This actually looks really good, seems to fix the handful of things that bother me about the pixel launcher.ill give it a shot for a few days and see how it does on my s8(TouchWiz is ehh), I'll be sure to post any bugs I find to the g+ group

Very much appreciated. I like to tell users they don't have to keep Sapphyx installed, i care more about what they noticed or found that could be wrong.
Pushed out an update today to the following apps in regards to Sapphyx Launcher.
GSD Premium license now adds a Time Page module for Static Pages (Simple Widget, may add more to it later).
Sapphyx SideDrawer now listens to Drawer Background Color and Column Count shared preferences.
Getting ready to release the API for devs to mess around with as well as adding Shared Preferences inside Sapphyx Launcher settings they will have access to. For example: Static Pages background color.
Happy weekend everyone.
Update 1.00.25 available on playstore, xda labs coming soon.

I already have plans to develop a page similar to Shelf. If I don't get to it, another dev will be able to soon as I will be releasing the API soon todo so. Im just not their yet to be satisfied with public usage.
I felt the same while developing this launcher, i wanted the same concept just another package or feature.

great work man!
I started working on publishing the Sapphyx Launcher API on github. Repository is live but the tutorial and setup isn't finished yet, been busy.
If you have any interest in it, feel free to star it. Github account can be accessed in the launcher about information. Il have some things documented above in OP when everything on github is finalized.
API is live on my github. I will be publishing some of my pages on my Github for examples.
The next update will be official release anf as a reminder will be locking all premium settings and requiring a key to unlock.
As apart of the update, Im compiling on Android Oreo which has broken a few things and improved performance so Im in the middle of a massive rework right now. The Extended homescreen is more aggressive now, making it feel more like a drawer than a extra page on your homescreen. This makes it less visible for users to notice if you do not want to use it vs users who will be using it. A large number of Force Closes have been patched. Ive gone through the launcher settings and moved a few things around while revamping a few views (Like the Avatar bottom menu).
Il be focusing on more user requests near release so keep the logs and requests and feedback coming.
A new feature im currently working on for Sapphyx Launcher. Kinda like a mock of the One plus Shelf.

looks lit man !
cant wait
Another look at the redesigned Left and Right Panes in Sapphyx Launcher's new update currently in development.
Static Pages now have an indicator to indicate which page you are on and how far left you are. Above the container is now a Google Now search widget which solves the delima of Now on left as clicking on it opens Google Now in that view. (I could add the Companion code from lawnchair but i really don't want to copy from them)
The Smart Pane has pretty much a final design. Just lacking its features at the moment. Currently looking at some options users could benefit from if they choose to use this feature for a cleaner homescreen setup.
This new update is planned for the end of September or beginning of October. I have a few things i want to touch up as far as existing tweaks, revamp the UX for the launcher settings, fix a few straggling bugs in a few tweaks and finalize the new Smart Pane and lock all premium settings.
A project update for xda followers.
I plan on doing a dev preview as an alpha build on xda labs soon. This build would be labled as an Alpha build and be a preview of the fall update. I hope to have this live next week. If you use this build, I expect feeeback. I will announce when it goes live.
I recently just switched to the newest Android Studio 3 beta and updated the launcher to compile on Oreo. The result was a massive amount of broken activities and actions because of new behavior and deprecated code and rules in Oreo. I have been working hard to fix everything and patch anything in need and remove anything that was completely broken. The result was a faster launcher but their is some weird behavior still and we're trying to locate the bugs and fix them (For example the drawer hangs or gets stuck as you swipe up from the dock)
I have been finishing up what I need to for a few new features, one of them being Sleeve. Sleeve is my representation of the One Plus Shelf feature. Altho it isn't 100% complete yet, I want users to get to try it and here from them what All could go in this hidden home screen. This screen is summoned via a gesture or launcher action.
A great amount of the launcher and interface has been rewritten to be more user friendly and easier to use as well as make that first impressions on many. The launcher settings has been re organized, a new long click listener was added to the carrot indicator. A few fixes to icon pack helper for Oreo and patches to pre existing tweaks so they behave correctly.
Be sure to follow the google plus group for more info and previews and to share your feedback and requests easier.
Dev preview builds are available on xda labs. Please select Alpha channel.

For me, a calendar widget is valuable when/if it shows the weather.

Do you mean current weather or weather forecast for upcoming days?
1. Today's weather
2. Current weather
3. Upcoming days
I can't see the logic in having a calendar + weather all-in-one widget. I'd rather have separate widgets for those, so I can choose the best for each, and the widgets don't become bloated with functionality I don't need.
Hi.
I'm still getting a problem with widget updates on my Huawei Mate 10 Pro. If I charge the phone overnight, the next time I unlock it the Calendar Widget Agenda has all entries replaced with the text 'Loading...', and it stays like that unless I open the settings, then close them, after which the widget updates properly.

Sorry for delayed reply. Unfortunately, the workaround I'm applied does not fixes the issue completely. But at least you can refresh agenda by open/closing settings (it wasn't updated before I applied workaround). Why Huawei still not fixed the issue?

No problem, just thought it's worth letting you know. I must admit, I'm tempted to try and put a Project Treble ROM on this thing!
