Description
"Ridiculous amount of customization. Works awesomely! I have a transparent status bar and I love being able to customize completely how the date looks."
"Clever Dev, no doubt. I have a custom time and date on my status bar, always visible, in the position where the stock time would be. Common sense to me :)"
Display the time and date in any format. Show the current battery, cellular, or WiFi numeric percentages near the time or anywhere on your screen. Add local weather info such as the outdoor temperature. Unlike similar apps, nothing is required in the slide down notification menu, which keeps things looking clean and great. TimeBar is not a status bar replacement, yet rich customization options allow it to blend in seamlessly while using stock status bar icons.
Android™ enforces a few limits on this revolutionary floating window app:
1.) TimeBar can not move out of the way automatically to make room for icons in your status bar.
2.) In some cases, TimeBar can not cover the existing status bar clock.
3.) On most devices, TimeBar will not hide automatically in a full screen app, however there are many options to hide it manually. Or display the time and date on top of full screen apps.

5 ★ Rather amazing app - it doesn't seem to drain the batt, one of my ongoing concerns
5 ★ It's a bit hard to figure out how it works at first, but when figure it out, it does the job. All I want is to display date on the status bar. Thank you.
5 ★ Date and temp nice to see
5 ★ Great
4 ★ Its decent but some improvements would make it great. If root is used it may be possible to replace the status bar clock instead of covering it maybe? The clock is visible when you pull down the notification bar too. It means 2 clocks at the same time. There is delay in showing clock when the device is unlocked. There should be an option to show it in one line instead of 2 along with the necessary adjustments for font size for the same.
4 ★ I have a problem in that newly downloaded programs throw up the 'screen overlay running' error. This forces me into screen settings to turn off timebar so that I can set up the new program, then I have to go and turn Timebar back on. Very irritating and there must be a way around this?
5 ★ After playing with it for a while, I figured out that it wouldn't work to replace my clock but I could use it to add the date to my status bar. The only issue I see is, it blinks when changing screens (from lock screen to home screen...). This is a great app.
5 ★ Great potential for a "rootless" customization app. One suggestion though; Rather than making each floating window with "top" and "bottom" lines; can you make an option to just have one line? Aligning the text with two lines becomes impossible. Note4-Android 5.0.1 Btw fonts are going in negative numbers for size. You might want to add a negative restraint on those. Can you please provide video tutorial somewhere? Definitely an app to look forward to. Best luck
4 ★ TimeBar enabled me to configure a centered clock with the day of the week, month, date, year and time of day including a.m/p.m. I was even able to put my name underneath! The interface might be a bit confusing initially and the myriad of options is a plus/ minus depending on the user's skill or interest level. After configuring it is automatic and your settings can be backed up or restored with one click.... a thoughtful feature. No conflicts or glitches and it is free!!
5 ★ Ideal for me when watching a film during my breaks at work. Now I don't need to pull the notification bar to see the time, or the date, or the weather, or the battery... Anyway there is loads of settings to fiddle with and, if something doesn't work, the developer is quick to answer any questions one may have.
4 ★ Very confusing to set up, but once you get the idea, you can customise everything. Its quite powerful, like adding a "always show clock in status bar on lockscreen"
4 ★ Bit glitchy, only one in app store like this I could find with time and date with yr, small in corner. Please update it and bring it to life more. It is necessary for me to have one like this and much needed. :)
5 ★ The best app ever for the purpose. I'm at the moment displaying date and temperature as follows: 20 Sep,17 | 23° Excellent. Saves my home screen from intrusive widgets.
5 ★ A bit confusing in the beginning but more that worth it! I've tried so many apps, some very good, but this is the best at this job. Looking eagerly for more from you guys!
3 ★ Does what I need it to do: display full date on the notification bar. However, the algorithm it uses to update its info is bad. It is not synced with the phone's time. Need to open the app, or lock-unlock the phone to resync. With the seconds displayed, they're not being updated. Most of the time, it seems to fall behind around a minute for every 2-3 minutes iteration on the phone's clock. Sometimes it goes ahead.. Haven't been using it for more than 24hrs yet so I can't say what other weirdness is there. Appreciate that it has no annoying ads tho.
