FAQ

How do I change my location?

Easy. You can change your location in the Location menu. To access the menu, you just need to tap into the upper left corner of the clock. You can see a detailed illustration of the tap areas in controls description.

Why is there no flip effect? This is boring.

I’m sorry to disappoint you. I didn’t include a flip effect, because I’d have to make custom graphics and coded effects all by myself. Unfortunately, I don’t have that much time on my hand on a feature which doesn’t add to the functionality of the program. Additionally, it’d probably blow the widget’s resource usage out of proportion. Nevertheless, I hope you still enjoy MeteorClock.

After the change of Daylight Saving Time (DST), the clock shows the wrong time.

Try to close and restart MeteorClock. At this point I’m not wholly sure where the reasons of this issue lie, but am investigating and plan to update as it is a pesky bug to reappear every half a year…
