Hi All, I have the S6 and am loving it. Quick question though, on my home screen where I have just the basic 'normal' layout with the clock/weather widget on the top, then the Google widget, and then all my apps below, I am looking for a weather widget that will just show the 5 day forecast on a 4x1 layout...... does anyone have any particular weather apps that they find brilliant that don't crash, or that constantly refresh thus sucking battery life? Thanks in advance.
P.S. - Thanks to one thread in here, I have now deleted Clean Master and have to admit that the phone is running great; once in a while I use the phone provided Smart Manager, but all seems good (touch wood!)

Fancy Widgets - 4x2 Clock/Weather Widget - H7C Skin - Main Home Screen

eWeather HD - 12 Hour Hourly Weather Widget - Left Side Screen

i set both to only update/refresh data on phone unlock max every 15 minutes. so when phone is sleeping/off.unused - there is no update/refresh of data. so you get the most current weather data only when you need it without using any additional battery.

good luck.

For weather, I like to use WeatherBug Elite. Although it's not free, it is inexpensive and provides a number of different widgets including a 4x1 widget that provides a 4-day forecast.

1Weather. it's the best looking weather app IMO and they have the 5 day forecast widget, as well as 4 or 5 others ... 4x2 and 4x1 layouts
