  • Thanks . Tried it out but the widget I Wowz 'Current 2' does not display the barometric reading when I place on home screen.

    Only displays two of 4 meausurements on that particular widget.

    The measurements I would like displayed on my weather widget are

    1. Barometric Pressure
    2. Relative Humidity
    3. Dew Point
    4. UV Index
    5. Air Quality
    6. Basic measurements like temp, wind speed, etc.
    7. Severe weather alert indicator

    Bonus would be precipitation chance percentage. When Ilookeed through WEOWOW options didn't see one where I could customize to get my list of wants on one or twowidgets setup.

    I am willing to pay as in one time payment for this weather widget.

    How to successfully find a weather related community on Lemmy?

    Am I doing something wrong? I search communities with key word weather and find no communities with over a few to maybe a dozen subscribers.

    I want to ask for advice on a good Android weather widget. 'Ask Android' is a community I will place a question on but naturally the best place would be 'Android Apps' which is a ghost town and weather communities are also like ghost towns.

    Are there communities out there that I'm not seeing somehow? Please help?!

    I don't want to use Reddit but may have to on some of these niche communities due to sparse activity.

  • KISS launcher

    Especially when pairing it with the Panels App

    KISS has a small footprint is very fast and really makes my smartphone experience super efficient. I toggle minimalistic on, change search engine to Brave/DuckDuckGo, set my six most used apps as favorites which then show as icons at home screen bottom, assign tags to shortcuts such as favorite websites or tools such as compass, barometer, speed meter, distance calculator, etc.

    You can have a tag category show up as a window from the bottom right settings menu.

    Kiss also has a very effective search component. Literally the only scrolling needed will be doom scrolling on ones favorite social media app.

    Widget functionality could be better but can be supplemented by said Panels app.

    I have used hundreds of Android Apps since my first smartphone around 10 years ago and KISS is my most favorite of all (open source or regular) due to how its impacted how I use my phone.

  • Start at the very top press and hold both fingers and follow through all the way to the bottom.

    Basically follow through the motion all way to bottom OR swipe with both to at least mid screen and then flick downward with momentum. Can't see why it wouldn't work for your phone 🤔

  • Permanently Deleted

  • I stumbled upon a useful website but come to find out its also a web app?!

    The domain is .app. So what is cool is I was able to create its own entry in my phones app list by clicking the add to Home Screen button on Firefox.

    My question is where can I find a website with lists of these with categories even

    I didn't have much success with search engine queries. Thanks!.

  • Samsung phones have so many quality of life improvements over the default Android experience that I don't think I can get away from them just from software alone (why do you have to scroll down twice to change the brightness on normal Android it's the most important function in the quick menu)>

    Only have to scroll down once but using two fingers. I am using Android 12 Motorola UX. I assume that stock Android would be similar.

  • I've had several Samsung phones over the years and do not like how bloated their apps have become like Samsung Notes, Samsung Health, and such. I liked their software experience when S5 was released much better. Remember Milk Music? 🙂

    The only reason to buy a Samsung these days is their top shelf hardware but primarily in. their flagships. Also had hardware issue with last Samsung flagship device I owned and then awful tech support from Samsung to boot.

    Moto has really upped their game especially in their Moto G 2023 5G models.(U.S. here) I'll be sticking with Moto mid-range going forward.

  • Holy +$@#$%-!! I was floating in the Pacific Ocean for weeks 🥶 after the ship sank. A kind Samaritan pulled me aboard and I'm now safe and sound 🤗💯 in the BoostforLemmy community.

    Also am very much looking forward to the impending app release!

  • Maybe some are waiting for Boost or other 3rd party apps but there will likely not be a super big number coming over. Apparently doom scrolling is preferred for a large swath of Gen Zers

    Need to focus on improving these communities and being active/creative especially in building niche communities on Lemmy.

    I see so many communities created with just a link or two posted weekly by community creator. That kind of activity gives Lemmy a bad look.

    Best Coupon Apps or Websites?

    With continually rising prices I've squeezed about everywhere that could be. Am looking to the community for help. Things like groceries, car service, haircuts, cleaning supplies . Thanks

    Movies and TV Shows @lemmy.film

    The Dukes of Hazard (CBS) 1979 -1985 was a good family show? Yes or No and Why?

    Yes it was. The red herring in the room is the Confederate Flag on the General Lee. But watching the show itself it was about helping out your family and your neighbors. Car chases, dealing with the corrupt and inept sherrif department of Hazard County and about GOOD country music.

    No curse words and no excessive sexual innuendo like Two and a Half Men did. Nor was their racism although it was an all white main cast and there weren't many minority minor characters Sherriff Little comes to mind as one.

    I believe they should still show the Dukes on Me-TV and other outlets but just present at beginning of the show a disclaimer about the Confederate Flag and note the reason for the valid condemnation from those who have personally been adversely affected by its history of being.

    The cancel culture of Bud Light is wrong just as it is with the Black Listing of what is essentially a good family television show.

    Smartphone Apps - Should apps not be downloaded from any countries? If so, which ones?

    I had read that some countries governments have access to app users shared data despite what it says under app details in Google Play Store.

    I have some really good apps that I think I'll probably have to shed. Please advise. Thanks.

    Moto Stylus 5G 2022

    Anyone else with this phone? It is my favorite phone I've ever had. Missing 4K recording but has pretty much everything else one would need. Even though only a mono speaker the sound is really good.

    Plus takes significantly better photos (OIS on main lenses) then my old Moto G Power 2020 did.
