[Q] Good Weather Radar Widget? - Nook Color Themes and Apps

I want to find a weather radar widget that works nicely with the NC. Any advice?
Right now, I have Weatherbug Elite, but it's radar widget won't stretch very big, and when you click on it, it's just a little map that comes up, anyway. I want something that I can make into a larger widget or something.

Rainy Days. There's no temp or forecast, just fullscreen radar with pinch-to-zoom. It gets data from weather services all over the world so you can even watch it rain in China.
I just realized you're asking about a widget. This is an app. Oops! I mean, it's a really good app but it's not a widget. Sorry about the misunderstanding.

Might still be worth checking out. Thanks.

Id love a good widget too. Rainy days is the best I've found but no widget.

If you guys really like this app and would like an widget, simply send some comments to the developers. You would be surprise how responsive the Android developers are.

I mean, comments you send via email to the developer's email (you can find the email from market app detail screen). Because popular apps always have a lot of comments on review (listed on app detail screen), developers prefers email comment.

This...I actually had an email conversation with the man behind rainy days...great guy and was open to the widget idea. Send him feedback and I'm sure he will be all over it.
Edit...don't be mad at him if he releases it as a bonus in a paid version...programmers have to drink beer too......

Facebook kind of app optimized for Android tablet, here it is!

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.locomolabs.facebook
"Friend Me"
See if it does work on GT 10.1
nice find! it's not perfect, but it works better than the official facebook app(which is really embarrassing for facebook)
this looks great!
Not bad, But It would make sense for Facebook to add tablet support these days.
the ipad is just about to get one soon... so hopefully that means one for honeycomb as well

Can anyone post the apk? Thanks!
fb too busy for apps
facebook is too busy trying to sell users information and invade their privacy instead of developing apps for ipad and honeycomb
u can DL it from Andriod market for free
I really like it so far. I haven't tried the official facebook app yet but the layout of this one is really nice. Only gripe is that I can't seem to find the notifications.

I don't like how clicking on a friends name does not bring to to their profile. I don't wanna have to search for a friend that just posted on my wal
Agree deleted app
If this doesn't quite work for you, TweetDeck works fantastic for basic functions. No liking individual comments, and I'm not sure how it handles pictures, and there's no chat, but it scales nicely and the app is solid. Notifications too. You do need to make a Twitter account to use it, but it's a small inconvenience until Facebook gets their act together.

I get your drift, and I can see how something like that could be really popular. I know some folks are really addicted to these social games where they take turns and play with someone. Taking that idea into a romantic direction would work, I'd think. Something on the order of "Draw Something" or "Words With Friends" that was password protected and was on the order of "Truth or Dare" or something like that might find a huge market...particularly if you could attach audio or pictures. SMS just isn't a perfect substitute because it doesn't bring in the "game" aspect or provide the same kind of "rules" or "choices".

thank you for thinking outside the box to see the kind of app i'm looking for. we do the "texting" thing. i'm looking for something different. something that could promote new ideas and things to do. something that takes some of the control away.
App for Couples
There is a new app for couples out that could provide you with something of what you are looking for.
Search iLoveNote on Google Play for Android Devices. The App is awaiting release in the App store for IOS devices.
I was also looking for a similar app. I found an app so I want to make happy to my girlfriend with my performance.:

Hovernote: Floating notepad for Tablets!

Hey guys, just found a new app called Hovernote for $.99 in the playstore:
'It's simply a note app that hovers over whatever you're doing. In a world where it's necessary to launch a full-screen app on a ten inch device to jot down three words, Hovernote is a godsend. You can have multiple notes open, copy, paste and share from them, and even use the app on phones/tablets"
The more apps like these we get, the more I can appreciate what Android brings to the table!

Very cool. I can see how this would be massively helpful for studying and taking notes from e-books.
EDIT: Here's the Play link for those who are interested:

Hey, yeah its a great app. Will do!
Thank you mjlim for creating another floating app to add to my arsenal . I bought it instantly once coming across the android police article to show my support for more floating apps (hint: I buy all floating apps )
Woot! Another floating app bought.
Really useful app, and if they keep popping at those prices I'm gonna buy all of them ^^
Read the save locally feature is being worked on... the app is looking really neat. Great work

Is there also a free or trial version? I would like to try it first. Seems to be a nice app though!

Currently, no. I might do one in the future, but for now you can purchase the app and try it out for about 10 minutes; Google Play has a 15-minute return window in which if you don't like an app, you can have your purchase refunded (more accurately, never charged) via a button on the app's page.
great app..just purchased
It's funny how I and another person who commented on the Android Police post about the floating app library were just hoping for someone to make a floating note taking app and a day or 2 after, there we have it!
Too cool. Bought it in a heartbeat. Thanks dev!
Got this app and I love it. I works over everything, video, office, browser. Swiftkey is active on it so spellcheck is also available. Nice.
To the author;
New features that I'd love to see. A widget instead of status bar notification and direct text file save.
Thanks!

Hi!
Just so you know, I released an update yesterday that includes:
text file read/write
window transparency
an option to turn off the notification that appears after you close the last note
I'm not too sure about using a widget, since you can only access those from the homescreen... maybe I could display a list of recently opened files in a widget eventually, though.
I've gotten some feedback on there being too many notifications, so I'll see if I can come up with some alternative means (configurable, because I don't want to force it on people) to select individual notes.

Or yellow sticky notes that could display the notes
Really liking this app. Its nice being able to use this app and sending the notes to my regular note taking app. I'm liking the floating window apps that are starting to come out.

Love the app. There is a method to get it free out there but after 3-4 days (when I got paid), I bought it to support the dev.
One thing I would like to see is an option to set a default open/save location. I usually save mine to sdcard/notes/.

Thanks for buying it. I didn't include any of the licensing or antipiracy libraries because it would be inconvenient, and the app is open source anyway; I definitely appreciate your purchase!
In the last version hovernote now remembers the last folder you were in when you opened or saved a file, and that's the default next time you open the file picker.
Thanks for sharing this. Its exactly was I needed.
Great job to the developer.

Awesome Calendar App

Hey Guys,
Just wanted to let you know about the "Chronos Calendar" app. I think it's fantastic and much better than the stock app.
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/chronos-calendar/18aae83d-c70c-4ac1-8bf6-c6e726e031df
I can do without the Apple-esque chrome and be more Metro. Also miss some features but for a first effort, this is great.
And to top it off, it is a free app without ads.
PS: No relation to developer, just a happy user.
I'm another happy user. Yesterday I switched the default calendar tile to Chronos calendar.
I really hope there are more apps like this.
I really like it!!! Great app!
thanks for the heads up
Hi
Thanks for posting about Chronos. I have it on my 920 now instead of stock calendar.
thanks, like it alot and its cool to change color of tile to match theme.....
Update: This app now has a delayed start for free version but you can buy it to remove the delay. Still worth it in my opinion.

Agree bro.Friendcaster for facebook also.It was way best app ever I used for fb.Many settings and it had a bookmark option,so you didn't miss a single post.
Forgive me for my noobness... but there used to be a app called Clockr. Its still available to download or at least it is in my Google Play store. But it is made for like my Droid X. So it doesnt work on my s8+. Anyway, I am huge on what my phone looks like in the theme, apps and fun things I can add. I miss my Clockr.

A little bit off topic but what I would really want is to get back the old version of facebook. It was so simple and fun. Now it's just a network for affiliate marketing and ads. It used to be a real community site.
Also, bring back myspace and orkut plsss

I totally agree.I suggest in many forums from various devs to make either a fb magisk module,either a modded app,either to add option to their custom fb app to have option to see feeds ONLY photos from our friends.FB has became as you said an advertising place.Algorithm also has changed to a way that you don't see friends photos,just pages feeds.It has became so boring..
