Better than Kairosoft, that's a big call. Might just have to get this.

You could also say I'm 2-thirds pissed :p

Happy new year ARSEholes.

Bought it and have be playing it for a few hours. Can't say I'd rate it up there with the likes of Game Dev Story etc

It's good, but doesn't have the Kairosoft charm.

I gave it a whirl too. It lacked options though. No popup or anything like that from memory. There was another reason I ventured from it, but I can't remember what it was. I tried it with my Galaxy Nexus though, not the Nexus 5. Does it do Emoji etc?

did you try it before the new update yesterday? Apparently it had a few annoying features that people complained about and they sorted out. I have only tried it for the last 2 days and it's been quite nice. The only thing i miss from Textra is the custom notifications, i had different colors for different people. I've never used the pop ups so i don't miss that, but from what the devs were saying on reddit that will be coming in the near future along with some other stuff.

Thats the forecasts, you can turn them off in the settings when you place the widget.

Hmm.. how can we make that clearer.. Unfortunately you don't get told what size the widget is in the code so we cant hide it automatically.

From memory, lock screen widgets are only possible if you have no unlock security on you phone.
If you have no lock settings, you swipe left or right of the lock screen widget and you should see a big + icon. Click him and you should be presented with the same widget list as if you were trying to add one to your home screen.
