Widgets on Android work a bit differently than a normal application. Unlike regular programs they don't just install themselves in the application tray so you have to add them manually. They will not open or launch.
Here's how to add a widget on your Android home screen.
STEPS HOW TO ADD A WIDGET
==========================
1.On your Android home screen, tap any blank or “empty” area with size 4x2 and hold down your finger.
2.An “Add to Home screen” window will pop up. From that window, tap “Widgets”.
3.You’ll be presented with a list of all the installed Widgets on your Android device.
4.Select the "3D Digital Weather Clock” to add to your home screen by tapping it.
Notes
=====
"Time frozen/not updating"-> taskiller killed the clock(exclude it from taskillers)
When phone starts, clock starts in less than a min too.
ROM users-> make sure the clock is NOT moved on SD card.
Widgets are not supposed to be on SD card. Move it back to the phone storage.
Weather hint: For world destinations with two words in the name, type in the box the words with a plus sign.
For example "Buenos Aires" type "Buenos+Aires",remember the "+" sign -no spaces, don't include the quotes.

This is the best weather app out of the 6 I tried. It looks the best. Doesn't provide all the info I could use, but the way this widget is customized makes all the difference. You can add 2 short cuts to the clock. I use on to link to the Accu Weather App. that provides a map and all the weather details you want. The minutes are also a link you can choose to use as you wish. The temp links to the widget detailed weather which is kind of basic and doesn't have a map. The only problem after 4 months was it took a day to update to the latest Android 5 update. Of course that wasn't the only app to loose contact for a while. Andriod 5 -- whata gonna do?
LG L3 with root and ROM. Worked great until about a week ago, when it reported me being in London and displays Celsius although it is configured for Fahrenheit. Have deleted and rebuilt the widget with same results. Even uninstalled and reinstalled... Still in London! Will leave installed for a few more days in hopes that the developer will see our Cry's for help and resolve the issue. I'll change my rating as soon the issue is fixed. But so long as it is at 1 star, it is still broke.
I've used this app for a long time over the course of 3 smart phones. The weather location has always had a default of GB but now it's permenent stuck there. As soon as it's fixed this app is great and Def worth 5 stars. It provides a lot of information plus hides a couple buttons.
Wonderful widget - when it works. Since the most recent update, it usually stays stuck on London weather no matter what I do. When it DOES switch to the city I set it to, it's temp is about 15 to 30 Fahrenheit degrees too HIGH. It's freezing here, literally 32-34 degrees, but temp says that it is 50-60 degrees. Please fix! I loved it till now!
It's a nice concept. But, it's glitchy & inaccurate. It took way too long to detect my location (Toledo, Ohio) then upon opening the app from the widget it said I was in Ottawa Hills (right outside of Toledo.) I'm uninstalling. Very disappointing to someone who wants something different on their home screen.
I have always preferred this weather clock over all others. Now I am not so sure. I have uninstalled then reinstalled. Still stuck on London! I have redone the zip code several times. In the edit mode the city is correct. When I go back to screen it still shows London. Please fix! This has gone on long enough!
For months now, this app has been stuck on London UK. Periodically, my location would show correctly but the weather was for some other location. Then back to London UK. I have written emails to author like others here to no avail, and the app is broken. Would not recommend to anybody
8/27/15-!!UNINSTALLED!!! 6/21/15-Still broke.Not updating ondemand.Shows previous day's forecast.Cleared cache,etc. 5/28/15-Still not updating ondemand.Ads still working fine though! 4/17/15-Still unable to update on demand.Randomly updates,but not at the interval I have set.Ads still working fine though! 3/17/15-Will not update ondemand, just hangs there trying.Cleared cache&data,uninstalled,reinstalled,etc.At least the ads still update properly... 10/1/14-Update seems to have fixed 9/7/14 update's issues!
Does not want me to set it I have a Samsung s4.. Not allowing me to choose colour for clock and not allowing me to set my country.. Actually looking for a nice weather app were it shows on ur home screen if it rains (raining on the screen) or when the sun shines on the screen.. Had a Samsung s2 and I had that awesome app where it shows the weather if it rains the screen has drops of rain running down.. Can u suggest a app like
I like the widget, looks great on my new Samsung Galaxy S6. Love all the options to make it work the way I want it. However... It doesn't seem to support weather info for current location, just one pre-set location. Maybe I'm missing something...
New update "HAD" fixed city location. Liked this app though, its my favorite weather widget. I'm using a Galaxy Note 3/(android 4.3). But now once again the weather location is NOT working. Will NOT show list or city when zip code is entered. I give up :( Back 2 sense flip clock & weather.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled this app a few times. Please fix the glitch so that I can get my weather updates with the matching location. I don't really care what is happening in London, weatherwise right now.
This WAS my favorite weather/clock, but it no longer uses the city I have chosen. I guess if I ever travel to London I will use it because that's the only city I can get the weather for... Please fix?
Loved this app!! It worked great for about 3 months. Then the app arbitrarily changed my location. I live in Texas! I've rebooted, uninstalled and reinstalled resetting location ... that's how much I like it. However, I am not interested in the weather in London ... permanently uninstalling.
This app used to work very well. But now when I enter the location, the app doesn't change to that location. It status frozen in London. And the weather isn't even up to date for there! Besides having the clock function, having the weather was what I wanted this app for. Now it's useless to me. I'm uninstalling it. Let me know if you get it fixed. It was a pretty good app.
Just said it is clear while I can hear rain hitting the deck. Needless to say, not very accurate and not much detail is available. Finally uninstalled when it kept defaulting to London.
Thank you for all the good times but something has changed. The weather isn't the same. I know I can't change you, only you can change if you're willing. Are you? Get back to me soon, I don't know how much longer I can wait. Yours truly, User not abuser.
I am uninstalling this. Very pretty to look at on my Android tablet but it has spent more time telling me London (England) weather, assuming it is always 20-25 degrees there, and occasionally London time to boot. I live in the US.
Despite using just the country as a location the app still says London. The app is clearly defective. Fix this and I can finish my evaluation. For now the broken app gets deleted.
App won't let me find my location. Stuck on London. Doesn't recognize my zip code anymore. Edit: did recent update, recognized my zip, but weather is still not showing up.
Had this app for some time now and it has always previously worked fine. But just changed my phone and now whatever UK location I enter it always reverts to London, UK. Obviously a common problem now looking at other reviews.
Edit: I give up. Love this app over all others BUT only when it works. This location bug should have been fixed a long long time ago. London weather just doesn't do it for me here in Washington, DC. Hate that they are not getting this bug gone! Can't live without this app. Have had on 3 phones and is first app i install on new phone. Compared & tried over 12 other apps and none match this one on all fronts.
Recently upgraded firmware on my Samsung S4 and weather defaulted back to London. Tried resetting widget but no luck. I eventually Powered Off and Restarted phone. All good now. Great app - love it!
Tried to set up the location and all i get is a blank "suggestion" box. I live in the capital city of Edmonton Alberta in Canada. Uninstalled - Im sure there are better widgets
I used the app for a couple years without a glitch. Now with new Android update, I cannot select a location. There is no scroll screen to select after I search. Devo needs to look into the problem.
It took me a very long time to actually find my city by guessing and tying to write it in all different ways. I suggest you work on it and make it find my loxation through location services. The weather also is inaccurate. Even the week munber on the clock is wrong. This app needs a lot of work.
APP USED TO WORK! NOW IT DOES NOT WORK UP UNTIL A COUPLE MONTHS AGO! I DONT LIVE IN PARIS, FRANCE. APP WILL NOT UPDATE TO MY CURRENT LOCATION AND TO WHERE I SET IT TO. THE CLOCK WILL NO UPDATE. USED TO WORK PERFECT NOW IT JUST SUCKS. HORRIBLE. UNINSTALLING AND WILL NEVER USE IT AGAIN.
Weather stuck on London for a week now, even when reinstalled. Will have to switch apps if 0 change. Will change review if fixed.

Everything else works fine but the weather says it's been 99 in my area forever now. Please please fix this. While this widget looks cool it will make one look dumb when it's storming outside and one's phone says it's mostly sunny.
Weather won't come off London no matter what I do... will be switching apps

Used to like this widget very much. But this widget seems to periodically lose the ability of specifying which location you want weather for. It gets stuck on London, UK, even though you've specified a correct location. This has been a recurring problem with this widget. Recommend you don't bother installing this until developer gets location problem fixed -- for good! Just too frustrating.

On HTC One M8 - says London, UK and temperature in Celsius and though I've changed settings properly, that does not change. So sad because I think the look and hidden launch buttons are really great.
Wouldn't save my location, despite resetting it multiple times. Very attractive widget, but overall useless.
Update: Won't show up on home screen, after setting up widget. (@07/05/14) Awesome idea, especially since I recently imagined a very. similar weather widget myself, so I wished to find one and... Behold! My wish was granted! The only issue is that it's blury- on my GS5's full HD screen.
Maybe it's the change to Lollipop, but my very favorite weather widget gives only London weather in Celsius. This has happened to many others, & there has now been plenty of time to work out the kinks in the program. Please, please make the program accept the location save and not switch to London after entering individual configurations & returning to the widget.
Got stuck on 11:40am for 25mins until 12:05pm so i am going to uninstall it. Not waiting to see if/when it corrects itself. I need something that is RELIABLE! Beautiful display though!

Works great!! It seems as if London is the default setting. Within 7 seconds or so my personal settings kick in automatically. If I restart my phone for any reasons it always go back to my original setting within 6 or 7 seconds. Simply because it has to locate me. Make sure that 3D digital is not moved to your SD card, it will not work. Must stay on your internal memory. If you can get it to work you will love this app!!!
