Wall Mirror for Android
I like the app but can only get time and holidays to work. Set up on three Samsung tablets, a nexus tablet and my droid turbo phone. All devices display time and holidays only. I loaded the darknet API into an appery.i o project and it's working there so I'm guessing this an issue within the app.
So far so good. Ive noticed that depending on time of day google calnder text comes and goes. Also I have never seen the weather part work. Ive tripled checked the weather ref #. The fault is probably mine though. Not sure what will happen after first power outage.
The time and the day seems to work just fine. The weather portion doesn't seem to work even after getting a new API key. It worked briefly, then it stopped. Nexus 2012.
This is awesome. Good work, Nick! Great being able to customise it and the brightness controls on a timer is smart. My biggest request would be some way of giving it an RSS feed (News or a Subreddit) to replace the quotes. I looked for anywhere which might have an API to do the same as the quotes site but with news headlines, but no luck. Thanks!
Works flawlessly, all modules fully functional, very easy to use, saved me a lot of time coding a new app as this is exactly what I am looking for. However, I'd just like to find out if there is any info about the default page being the config menu? Thanks!
Hi Nick, Thank you for creating this app. I've just bought a cheap 7" tablet to make my daughter a smart mirror as a present. The app works great so far and the weather api is a nice touch. I look forward to seeing where you take this project.Nice work. John
Would be perfect with some more weather info like if it's going to rain etc. Great work.
Great! Is there a way to install BBC news feed?
Great app for my smart mirror project. However, the weather and stock ticker modules worked once or twice and then stopped working (similar Blake Holmes' issue). Copy/pasted API key to make sure there are no typos. Reinstalled app. Deactivated and reactivated modules. Not sure what happened. They DID work for a time and then stopped with seemingly no reason. Running on Nexus 7 2012 with Android 5.1.1.
Awesome app saves me coding a pi. Any chance you can make the app not start in config mode ? Maybe after a minute of no activity it displays the information. Cheers
So it is a bit out there trying to get it to birthday messages don't come up but is there a way to make the web content show quotes of the day or bible versus or something at all???? Otherwise awesome app
Could you add a daily bible verse? My wife would love that!
It won't display any thing other then the time.
Please add voice control "ok Google" function
It's does not work
Thanks Nick
Good
Hi, I really like this, but I am having some trouble with the app. I got the temperature to work following your steps, but only once, after closing the app, i couldn't get it to work again despite checking the code over and over. Also, I have a lot of problems with the save button not actually saving some things, this is most obvious on setting the brightness, it always reverts to 0.5. The save also fails when I tried to make a fake holiday just to test it. Any help would be great.
Thanks for saving me a ton of time. Allowed me to focus on the construction part of the project. I think keeping the app simple is the way to go. I only want to see the time, weather, and calendar. If I want to read the news or listen to music, that's what my phone is for.
Thank you for this amazing app. Looks wonderful on my newly built mirror. May I request a feature though? A scrolling RSS feed would look great, just for the headlines in the mornings. Might be worth you adding a link to donate too. I'm sure some of use would, given how specialised this app is :-)
Only requests are for moveable modules, personalized birthday messages, and font and color options. Thanks for the wonderful app! Would love to donate to support future features!
Awesome! Can make my own cheap smart mirror.
Could you add a daily bible verse? My wife would love that!
Appointments in Google calendar show up but reminders do not. If I set a reminder in Google Keep I can view it in the Google calendar app, but it does not appear on my Magic Mirror. Also weather icons would be cool, subtle animations would be extra cool. I would pay $5 for this app, great job
This is great, please keep developing new features. Voice control would be great.
Thanks! Can I request a way to rotate to landscape?
An effective app. A development I would find really useful would be a screen timeout setting, with the proximity sensor waking the device. I'd also echo people asking for Google now integration.
Really nice app, will try and contribute to the project!
Good app.
Best app for this application. I was looking for a way to do this with an old tablet I had laying around and I happened across an imgur post that linked here. It would be nice if there was an option to change the layout of the modules. Other than that this app is pretty awesome.
Please add voice control "ok Google" function
Thanks this saves me a lot of time. Your mirror looks great!
Planning to make it this weekend.
It should have more weather options, maybe a quote of the day. Great app! Nice work!
App looks great, a feature I'd love to see added asap would be the ability to change the font and perhaps font color. Great app though!
a few things that could be changed to make this a more globally accepted app: -temperature selection (c/f) -birthday reminder date selector/name text field (separated from each other) -mass transit module to accept scheduled times (ex. school bus - 8am) -reduce temperature API ping intervals, "live" feed is not needed, perhaps every 15 mins, but no more than that. other than those, it's a fine app for this purpose!
Thanks for taking the time to make this!

Needs a really nice looking forecast not just the day with numbers. Also kind of need to know if it's raining or sunshine. Maybe an option to add colors to the text. Got to admit the raspberry pi version has much more.
