Good evening (or morning depending on your location) everyone! So I've rearranged my homescreen again. Quick rundown.......... I kept the same icon pack (Cobalt Icon Pack in the Google Play store) that were in the pic a couple of post up from this one. The Cobalt icons are free. The biggest change(s) is I removed the clock/weather widget (Beautiful Widgets) & replaced it with "quick keys" to access important contacts, as well as the ICE app so it's easy to find just in case. Under them I added a digital clock widget and still using an agenda widget from Business Calendar (free version).

Also, because I know someone will eventually ask the two icons on the status bar to left are for 2 apps I leave running in the background. The circle with green cross is for 360 Security, and the "squiggly" line means the phone is connected to my Metawatch Strata smartwatch (pics of it included). No the Metawatch isn't as fancy as a Galaxy Gear. But it's rugged and waterproof and I can glance at the watch and see my notifications and determine if I need to answer right then or if it can wait. It also vibrates so you can put your phone on silent and still know if you get a notification. Hopefully it's ok to post a few pics of it with the screen shot. I've had several people ask to see pics. Mod's please accept my apologies if I'm in the wrong. Hope you guys like and have a great day!!!

**** I've searched all over the boards and can't find anything where you can leave product reviews. Do any of you guys or girls know if we have a page for that?****

Try Wearable Android Tech, or the new sister site - Connectedly.
I like the watch, not too big!

Thanks Madd!!! I didn't realize we had a site that was part of the Mobile Nations family on wearable's. Thanks for the suggestion and I'm going to check it out right now! I also appreciate the compliment on the watch. I've been wanting one (a smartwatch) for a while, but I enjoy doing things outdoors and needed something durable, and I wanted a watch I didn't have to worry about taking off every time I'm working in the yard, or even if I go swimming. My luck if I bought a Galaxy Gear it wouldn't last a week.

A lot of people have turned their nose up on my watch because it's not the latest and greatest but it works for me. All I was looking for was something that I could glance at if driving, in a meeting, church, or church, etc. Plus if I want to take pics then I'll use my phone for that LOL.

Thanks again !!

It seems to have all I need in a watch. Reminds me of digital Casio's I used to have (don't take offence!).
I have slim wrists as well.

Connectedly opened to great fanfare here about 3 months ago. I hope you find it useful.

Ever changing........ Here's the latest design. I don't think I'll ever quit changing my homescreen and its everyone's fault in this thread LMAO. Everytime I think I've got a setup I like someone posts something and I see a new widget, icons, etc and then wind up changing things all over again........ So here's the latest :)

Here's the same layout but with a different wallpaper......... I think I like the black wallpaper over the midnight blue one in my post above this one. What say you my fellow board members?

Nothing special. Same as my neon setup, but thought that was best for night. Here I'm using Dab icons and wallpaper for daytime action (folder background and app drawer are still from neon icons pack)
