About Chronus: Information Widgets

Welcome to Chronus, a set of elegant Home & Lock screen Clock, Weather, News feed, Google Tasks, Stocks and Calendar widgets.

As a flexible "Information" widget, Chronus is highly optimized in terms of CPU and data usage with the potential of replacing several other info widgets. Multiple Chronus widgets on the same device share the same back-end services and updates are batched. This makes the system use less battery while still providing the user with rich information. You can choose to use one or all of the features, those not used are completely disabled, using no CPU, data or battery.

Please note:
1) Details on the Permissions we use are available at http://goo.gl/EbMLmm
2) If you use the Xposed framework to bypass Android Widget API's, things will break!
3) Lock screen widgets are only supported on Android 4.x and with 3rd party lock screen apps on Android 5+

- Fully functional Flex, Flex (Analog), Clock+, Clock+ (Dash), Dash, News, Google Tasks, Pixel+ and Weather Widgets

I just wish the calendar widget would include Google Reminders. It's very much needed. :(

Edit: Still Fab!! Earliest purchase. Developer won't rest on his laurels!

Q70%
by Q####:

Paid for the pro features, but it won't show up on my LG G watch.

C70%
by C####:

After purchase, AccuWeather source missing from weather source options, unlike during trial. Other source (yr.no) totally not accurate.

H70%
by H####:

I purchased in app before updating and after updating it ask for purchasing again what the hell

Y70%
by Y####:

I wish that was a settings/edit button on the widget, it would save a lot of time customizing

U70%

Latest version do not refresh weather.

Fantastic. One of my essentials. Useful. Very much.

Awesome widgets. Luv it

Great App for what I am looking for. I already understand the Yahoo bug is out of your control. I'm getting another bug, though very minor, and I just want to know if you're aware of it or if it's just me. Occasionally the widget will "disappear". To bring it back I have to hold the screen as if repositioning the widget, then it instantly appears. Any ideas?

D70%
by D####:

I came across this app through a friend. I gave it a shot and downloaded, one of my biggest concerns from downloading such apps is the battery drainage and this app is very light and won't kill your battery. I love it, I told other friends about it and they love it as well.

by U####:

Great widgets, I love the simplistic design. Pair this with Muzei and you've got a dream team. I do have some suggestions though: • Google Keep widget. The Task one is great, but Google Tasks is outdated and obsolete. Who knows when Google will totally pull the plug on it? • More customization, especially for the forecast widget. I don't need sunset/sunrise, or the "Data provided by..." thing. An option to disable those would be welcome.

D70%
by D####:

Useless unless you buy the pro version because of extension limit. Only worthwhile thing compared to others that I see is selecting update intervals, but that isn't worth $2. Uninstalled, going back to Dashclock, which is a tenth of the size and free. Edit: dashclock can't handle multiple weather providers and is being useless for weather, so forced to buy this. Text size at max size is still too small, and there is no way to set margins to utilize space properly. Still not worth the money I spent on this. Other than the lack of weather, I would still rather use dashclock even if it wasn't free.

Y70%
by Y####:

Elegant design but I couldn't figure out where to get the built in Gmail, missed calls and text alert extensions. Am I missing something here?

U70%
by U####:

Only thing that would make this better: text shading so I don't need to change font colour when I change background. Other than that, it's functional and beautiful.

My go to weather clock widget . Used to be a Fancy Widgets supporter for years till the app was abandoned . Had to find another app . Glad I stumbled on this one . Paid for is worth it . Support the Dev it's good work .

F70%
by F####:

Hey! Nice job with the weather widget. I love the nougat one. But could you please make the pill square shaped on the left side, to resemble the Google one even more? Thx

U70%
by U####:

yr.no as a weather feed provider can't resolve my location. So I end up without any weather data at all... :(

R70%
by R####:

Would love you see updates on the pixel widget like location instead of just date below the weather etc. But still it's a great app..

U70%
by U####:

Best of the bunch, many options with few if any bugs

Great widget app, enhanced by its great minimal watch face!

Best.

by G####:

thank you for removing Yahoo weather! Everytime I have to refresh it to see the weather and it's not working properly

U70%
by U####:

Just all you need!

O70%
by O####:

Don't know why you have a problem with yahoo? I have tried every single provider and yahoo is infact the most accurate. Seriousely the other providers suck except accuweather but you say it won't work for the watch face so scratch that. Yahoo is fine. Weather Underground keeps locating me in the city next to where I live.

F70%
by F####:

When yahoo works its a great app... in the past 3 weeks I get the following error msg in my widget "invalid data received from yahoo". Unfortunately yahoo is the only option that works because the other weather services ask for an api key. Chronus team, you are working hard for this app and thats why I bought the app a long time ago. I wish you can find an other way to provide the weather data in your app because without the yahoo weather data I cant use the widget anymore. :( ------- thank you for your reply. I don't want to keep pressing "refresh" , that's what I did -for days- before my comment. Also, yr.no doesn't work for my country (Greece) because most of the time there is no weather feedback and its worst than yahoo.

This is what I wanted, thanks Dev for amazing app. Tiny bug, when I press refresh button, it rotates with square background. Maybe you should replace it with circle. Update: After recent updates, I have started not liking this app.

U70%

Yahoo weather is the only option I can get to work for weather.. Which sucks because its never correct!

U70%
by U####:

I like the new pill widget. customizing the colors for the background and logo would be a nice addition. option to disable text for weather would be super sweet. reading pictures is way funner than having a bunch of unnecessary letters cluttering up my home screen.

B70%
by B####:

I find this app very useful and it works very well.In case of any problem the developer responds very fast and fixes the error. I had tried other clock and weather widgets but I find this the best . The new Pixel widget is excellent and realistic

U70%
by U####:

The app no longer finds my calendars. Galaxy S7 edge Android 6.0.1. Is this a global problem. App is right now useless for me. I have been very satisfied with it up untill today.

U70%
by U####:

Android wear support in the pro version is horrible. Setting it to show weather notifications on my watch just shows a cloud with a question mark over it, or sometimes nothing at all. Uninstalling and moving on.

U70%
by U####:

Great widget which I use everyday. Just one suggestion: Could you add an option to add world clocks to Chronus Daydream? Thank you!

U70%
by U####:

Would give full 5 stars if it gave me the option to sync My Tasks from S Planner, current option is for Google Tasks only. This should be an easy addition as you have already in place for the calendar widget. Please add this functionality and will update rating.

U70%
by U####:

I have been using this clock/weather widget since the old CM9/ICS days. It had always been reliable and dam good looking... The pro version is worth the extra widgets and customizations... Cheers to the developer, great work! keep it coming

U70%
by U####:

I don't have Google app installed but I should still be able to have the pill widget and open another app or no app at all on click.

H70%
by H####:

It's great, except when Allow Upscaling randomly gets unchecked and my widget looks terrible.
