Anyone prefer the stock weather widget over others?

**asr10 user** · 08-23-2012, 06:35 PM

Just wondering if anyone likes the regular weather widget like I do. I havent found a good replacement yet, I like how it shows actual location and can refresh the weather quickly.

I like it and use it!

Although the stock weather.com app is good, especially for free... I prefer and really recommend BeWeather.

I keep going back to the weather.com app. I like its 4x1 widget and how it shows a couple days out and severe weather alerts.

I like the beweather as well. I have it so the background isn't visible and it works great. love the weather radar.

I like the stock one, but I wish it was transparent. A couple times for some reason mine went transparent and it looked really cool.

I've since switched to SimiClock with Weather as I like the simplicity of it and it always gets my location correct unlike the stock widget. I'll probably try aWeather from the play store next.

Iv been using I havnt finished tweaking it but apparently you can assign apps to launch when tapping certain areas (hour and min on the clock) of the widget. Which I kind of find nifty since I am not giving up all of that real estate to something that is visual only.

I don't know if this will be my permanent choice, but I like it so far.

I love beautiful widgets and use one on there. Love it!

I prefer the stock weather app as a widget and use WeatherEye as a secondary weather app.

I prefer beautiful widgets, its seems to be more accurate.

I like and use the stock weather app.

I use the stock one as well, only thing is the occasional lag when switching screens which I hope is fixed on the next update or Jelly Bean which ever comes first.

I agree. Whenever you go to your home screen, the widget flips and causes the screen to temporarily lag. No biggie to me but I can see that being annoying and/or nuisance to others.

I use the Go Weather EX widget. I don't like most weather widgets and don't use the stock widget because it takes up 8 spaces, go weather has a nice 4x1 that I use and gives me weather conditions, temperature and clock.

off topic but i love the Go Calender widget with transparency theme

I've been using HD Widgets. There are several I like, but I think HD Widgets gives a better data rundown when you tap the widget.

**jlrogersTN** · 08-27-2012, 08:52 PM

I was using the stock weather widget until I noticed the current weather conditions displayed were WAY off from actual temps. I deleted the widget and replaced it with National Weather Service widget. It works MUCH better!

I tried Animated Weather widget because it worked with Nova, but I recently switched bak to TW again (at least for now) and I forgot how much I really like the stock weather widget. I also tried Weather Channel's widget and liked it, but not as much as stock.

**funkylogik** · 08-28-2012, 12:17 AM

ive discovered Weather HD. its not a widget but its beautiful

**NikOnJava** · 12-04-2012, 03:36 PM

If I change the stock weather widget, will I lose it? It does not appear in Apps->Widgets.

I changed the stock home wallpaper and do not see it listed in Wallpapers. and so wanted to check before changing the weather widget. I wish it were transparent.
