Get Your UCCW Fix with a Google Now Theme

Courtesy of iTechTriad

I’ve had a lot going on this past couple of weeks, some good, some bad.  However, in the course of it all, I was blessed with a chance to play with, evaluate, and review a cool ass UCCW theme called Google Now.  The talented developer of this in depth, very well done theme has put together a great pack of widgets, 36 in all (Daaaaaaammmmmmmnnnnnnn) with more coming.  Wondering what this laundry list of widgets consists of?  Well, wonder no more, here ya go:

– Clock/Date/Battery
– Clock/DayOfWeek
– Battery Charge Level Bar
– Current Temp and Condition and Hi/Lo
– Current Temp and Condition and Day
– Tomorrow’s Forecast
– Contacts
– Phone
– Chrome
– Google Play
– Camera
– Google+
– Gmail
– Google Search/Now
– Google Keep
– Google Maps
– Google Play Music
– Messaging
– Ingress
– Hangouts
– Calculator
– Google Drive
– YouTube
– Twitter
– Facebook
– Instagram
– Spotify
– ES File Explorer
– People
– Gallery
– Beach Buggy Blitz
– Minecraft
– Riptide GP
– Words With Friends
– Blank Template Widget

And you thought I was pulling your chain.  Nope.  🙂  I tried to go through and set up home screens with ALL of the widgets, I failed, after having 12 pages in my launcher (Miui Home Launcher) and still not having used them all, I had to call it quits, I was defeated…but in a good way.  In light of all of that, I’ve come up with a few screenies that I enjoyed, that I felt really felt carried through a great and honest feel (really just the tip of the Google Now iceberg)

After playing with it for a while, and really seeing where I wanted it all to go and how it moved across my screen, this is where I’ve decided to stay, right on the bubble of a happy median.  There has been a tremendous amount of work poured into this theme.  After putting the widgets into “hotspot” mode whatever you have loaded up takes you to your destination with the tap of a digit, nice and smooth, just like you would expect Android to be.  Each widget, when resized (and not), looked perfect, every time, makes it easy to stagger, stack, mix, and match your way to UCCW bliss.

So, now that you’ve all had the chance to see what this extensive widget collection is comprised of, what it looks like, and your imaginations have run rampant with the cool stuff you could create on your own home screens…GO AND GET YOUR OWN COPY.  You won’t regret it.  Oh and did I mention, it’s on sale for less than a buck for the next week, what more of an excuse do you need, get to the play store and handle that.  DO IT 🙂

I don’t know about y’all, but I’m one really happy camper, this has been a great experience and one that will stick with my phone for a long time to come.  Thanks again Ben, I’ve had a great time fiddling with the Google Now UCCW experience, I cannot wait to see what  you come up with in the past.
