Overview:
Welcome to Chronus, an elegant Home & Lock screen Clock, Weather, News feed and Calendar widget.
Functionally similar to its older brother the CyanogenMod cLock widget and brought to you by the same developers, this independently released, stand-alone widget takes back its original name – Chronus – and brings the same elegant look and feel, enhanced with many new features and improvements, to the broader Android community.
Please note:
1) Lock screen widgets are only supported on Android 4.2+. This is a limitation of Android itself, not Chronus
2) On some devices you may have to reboot your device after installing for the widget to show up in the widget picker
3) WidgetLocker is not supported
