About Wakeup Daydream

Would you like to use your tablet as a live billboard showing the current time as well as the RSS feed of your choice with large fonts that you could read from across the room ?

Please check the screenshots.

It is useful for:
a) Night watch
b) Glance at the screen from across the room when you prepare to leave to work.

One thing the app doesn't try to do is be another application that shows temperature, or integrate with aggregation services.

You have full control over most of the aspects of the application, here are some of the details:
a) whether to show the hour in bold or not
b) color for hour / minutes and 12/24 hours format
c) color and font size of the headlines
d) fade-in animation for the free version (2 more animations on the PRO version)
e) refresh interval
f) it does not integrate with Google / Facebook etc, you have to type in a valid RSS feed URL.

This uses the Daydream functionality added in Android 4.2.2 thus will not work if you have an older version of Android.
It does not install an Application icon, you have to go to Settings / Display, activate the Daydream functionality if it is currently disabled, then you will see a new entry - Wakeup Daydream. You can then configure it and set it as default.
I have set the Daydream to start when my tablet is connected to the charger.

Animations are nice to have, but they use a lot of the processor power. Please set the Animation to None if you want to minimize CPU usage.

For the PRO version, please go here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nativnux.daydream.unlocker

I would buy this app if I could click stories and it would take me to the page; option for expanded article per interval; adjust time per article interval; option to not show time.

I've been looking for a good daydream app that I could put on my wall mounted tablet to give me a information at a glance. I've tried a couple other ones that just barely aren't good enough. This app is a gem! Nice big clock and it takes RSS URL's. The only thing keeping it from being exactly what I want is weather. I'd also like to add more RSS feeds and lower the refresh interval to 5 minutes. Kudos to the dev though! The KISS philosophy is not lost on this one.
