Is the app worth buying, as it supports themes that look really cool But how long is the delay before it kicks in? because that is what would most annoy me
Thanks for any information.
Yes it is worth it, I get no delays, you will get delays on sense roms.
I brought it and its fine would you recommend any themes for out size display?

META WIDGET
Meta is a unique app that can turn virtually any online content into dynamic, interactive widgets.
Simply browse to a website, pick a column of text, link or image and enjoy this information right on your home screen!
Why is this cool you ask? Because almost anything can be parsed out of a website - images, blogrolls, RSS feeds or entire windows.
Any widget created through Meta can be customized and automatically updated, or updated on user interaction.
Features
★ Create widgets from almost any website element
★ Parse graphs and images
★ Extract statistics and information from authorized sites
★ Configure widgets (background, alignment, etc.)
★ Automatic updates
★ User defined click actions
★ Lots of other cool stuff
Status
The app is currently quite stable, but we still prefer to call it a beta. So please, do write to us with suggestions or bug reports!
Play Store
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.metawidget
The free app has everything but automatic updates. Please buy the Key - that would help us a lot

The widget is stretchable on HC and ICS, predefined sizes are only available on GB.
Man how is that confusing?
Awesome App, thanks for posting.
Testing it out now, will report back if I have any issues.

im new to ics... i didnt know that it would be strechable, and look good streched from a 1x1...
i will have to try to strech it, im using go launcher and have not figured out how to resize widgets.
thanks for the repley... i do like it and it works well on my phone.
Edit/Add***
Thank you for clarifying about the stretching ... works great! ... Thanks!
I'm surprised you would use go on I cs, the stock 4.0 launcher is excellent. But if you need more, you should go with nova or apex, they are great.

I will end up buying the app soon.
Interesting, ill check that out myself i think

Anything of interest i should know before i embark on a new build? Issues perhaps? Suggestions?
Nope working perfectly here.
Awesome, thank you!
I emailed Dev from play store link. And have yet to see a reply. About 3 weeks now.
But if anyone could Help, would be awesome.
I want to make a Meta widget. Of the threads in development section on home screen. So I can see if any roms have been updated without going into browser.
I still don't no if this is possible, if so... how?
Hey guys! My question is about the themes on the MyColorScreen website. I've noticed that not all of them can be used on the Themer app. The one I want to use in particular is called Pink Chrome. I tried putting it in the export folder and it didn't work when I applied it with the Themer app.
Would it be possible for someone to show me how to convert this theme so it will work with Themer?
And if the Themer team is reading, please make it possible to make the themes on MyColorScreen.com work with Themer? I realize that there's 50,000 themes on the site, but those are great themes and it's frustrating when those themes don't work with the app. Thanks.

same here and there are some much better themes on MCS's website.
I'm pretty sure that MCS's website is where folks would upload home screens they made on their own to show off what they'd created. If you click on an image, you often get an explanation as to what apps were used to create these homescreens. The Themer app was just created by MCS and what you see at the main MCS site aren't themes for the app. I wouldn't doubt if some of these screens are used for inspiration for developing themes in the future though.
I'm not 100% on this, but this is what I gathered.

There should at least be an option to use those themes, though. I was disappointed to not be able to use Pink Chrome.

not trying to come off as a jerk but give it some time. the app just came out. and its beta at that.. they cant be expected to get all 50,00 themes to be compatible for the app this early. it doesnt quite work like that (dragging random files from said theme into a folder for themer. the theme creator has to make sure to use the apps that Themer the app is compatible with and then export it). im confident that in time, a lot of themes will be added, and possibly Pink Chrome will be too. a lot of users also give instructions under their MyColorscreen theme to set up manually which is an option if it has not been added to the Themer app yet. maybe the same goes for Pink Chrome. things will start to fall into place as soon as more themers get on board with the app. its understandable that people are frustrated with this beta app but its not a magic tool. there are behind the scenes processes, and configuring that needs to be done so you, the end user can just click once and enjoy any theme they have listed on your specific model device (there are many to test and make it compatible with). like the widgets that are used for one. a lot of the themes on the MCS website use many different widget apps that Themer just simply dont support yet. the app is free and their team is small. Patience is key
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46261711&postcount=1
Well the themes on the website have been made by the users, I don't think Themer can just pick them up and covert them for Themer without the permission of the people who've created them
Yes as has been said above it's going to take time. Right now we have a very small team and taking a theme from MCS, working with a designer to rebuild it in Themer using our tools, then implementing the theme to work on many screen resolutions takes a lot of time. We are trying to grow and hire more people so this doesn't take as long.
Also another issue is that many themes on MCS cannot be reproduced in Themer because certain third party widgets were used that aren't available with Themer. However, we announced today that Zooper widget will soon be in Themer, so the number of themes that we can recreate from MCS will skyrocket.

I wasn't saying the option to use themes on the site needs to be implemented *today*. I was just saying they should implement it *someday*. I know this is a beta. I know it's not a magic tool. I'm not delusional or anything.

im sure they are very open to suggestions.
its just that they have had a bad rap so far for no reason, and if you look at their reviews in the play store, a lot are bad only because the code fiasco. and when their servers couldnt keep up with the high amount of user wanting to try it out. thats why they wanted to stagger out the codes.. so they can build upon what they have now. im sorry if i came off defending these guys a little harshly. i create screens for MCS so i understand the work that is put into it. and i know their team is small as of right now. but rest assured, this app will only get bigger and better in time. now with Zooper support, its a giant leap ahead now. again patience is key and please enjoy themer. its really a five star app and effort

Well, this sure is an awesome app so far! And seeing all those screens on the site floored me!
I know about the ratings in the Play Store. It's really not fair because people don't understand what beta means, and why the codes were necessary, so they gave an unfair vote. I remember when Gmail was beta. It was the same way, with codes. And that's a Google product!
But yeah, I don't blame you for being defensive. It can be hard, anyway, to decipher what people mean when you read a post on the internet. It's not like you can hear their voice, or see their body language. It's all good! And I love Themer! It's great! And the existing themes are more flexible than people realize.

how can I know what new themes are availale in THEMER without reachning my ph
I know Im deviating a little bit from the topic here but I find that is related.... and didnt want to create a new thread just for that.
The concern I've been strugling the most lately is that majority of themes I would like to try out are not in THEMERAPP already and Im willing to give them time since I know is hard and long process for a BETA stage and I dont wanna be demanding, but how can I know or tell what new themes are availale in THEMER without reachning my phone or going into that app itself, I would like to know that because I'd like to analyze a theme in my PC before I try it in the actual phone.
Thanks in advance.
it would be nice that themer could change the framework such as dialer messaging app etc...
maybe in the future ....just a thought.

To do this you would have to download the original file then strip completely.
Then using the original wallpapers re build the theme in themer.
by setting the wallpaper in themer options. Then adding the widgets required when this is all done export the theme and it will be saved.
I've done this myself with the themer theme HUD so I could mod to my liking and make a matching lock screen.
Hope this helped

Dear Community,
I'm happy to have found Themer and would like to fully replace all Go Products. I don't trust that chinese crap with its adware and random lockups any longer.
Questions I'd love to see answered:
1. How to enable animations like in Go Locker?
2. Advantages over all other Launchers?
3. Which is the best replacement for Go SMS?
4. Security advantages over Go Products (pretty self-explanatory given the fact that Go Products come from China)
Even though not everything might fit this forum, I'd like to have your experiences as detailed as possible.
Thumps up will be given. Trust me.
Update: Themer looks cool, but doesn't seem to be the right option. I want 3D and I would like to place my app icons on my home screen like I used to. Any other Launchers you can recommend? C'mon, don't be shy!
PLEASE ANSWER. Thank you.

Hi SecUpwN, let's see:
1. We've just started, lock screen integration will arrive in the future once we are more stable.
2. The biggest advantage is that we offer the only one-click theming experience. Other launchers do allow you to add themes, but then you'll always need other 3rd party apps. With Themer, everything is included.
3. Hard to say, that's personal preference, but there are many great alternatives out there.
4. Well Themer is being developed in Irvine, CA. We can assure you that we only release quality, non-risky features and updates. The only push notification we use is one to "show off" your theme, which helps spread awareness for Themer and also helps keep it free. It can also be turned off.
Hope this has helped answer all your questions, feel free to ask more if you need
Thanks for answering, @ThemerSupport! How can I have a cool theme by Themer and place my own apps onto the home screen? I'm REALLY looking forward for that lockscreen feature! Having it, I could use Themer as an ultra-stylish locker and have a fresh home screen with my own apps on it. Aww man, maybe next year..
You can still add your own app shortcuts by longpressing the app in the drawer, then dragging it where you want on the home screen.
Same thing with any widget.
Of course, this likely ruins the aesthetic of the theme.
You can go to Menu > Advanced Settings > Unlock Widgets
And move things around to accommodate your additions.
Furthermore, you can just add an extra home screen and have your way with it!

I decided to ditch Themer as long as it doesn't provide basic features like NOVA launcher. It's sad, but without beging able to add icons to the desktop without destroying the theme, I don't want it. I'm using NOVA now - and it works just awesome.

Hey, just figured this out. If you click the theme image it takes you to a page with a button marked theme setup. Click that and you'll find the option for it in there.

Hi,
sadly, this only works for the default theme (like you mentioned), it doesn't seem to work for the other, downloaded ones. At least it doesn't seem to work for the one I'm using.
If it really can't be changed, that would be quite a poor decision from the developers not to allow swapping temperature types for other than the default theme... Even if it's a free app and a free theme..
When choosing the theme in the bottom left side you will find a button named theme set click on it and this where you can change to C °
