This thing is supposed to flip, right? Like the old one used to?

I added another city but it won't flip?!?! I have to click: weather, select new city and exit out again.
I usually don't wind up keeping the Moto widget there but wanted to try it. Thought maybe it was a Nova issue, but went back to "Launcher3" and same thing.

Spin? The circle part? So you can see other cities weather or Zap.

The question is really rhetorical. I know it is supposed to spin.

Lack of replies here mean = no one uses it???

I reinstalled mine to check this, and it does not spin.

Really? OMFG... UNINSTALL... Clearly says in the Moto Manual that it is a shortcut to getting to ZAP so I assumed it would spin like the Circles Widget on the last Gen Moto's.

Thank you, Ava...

The clock is supposed to "flip" like a coin when you drag your finger down from the top or up from the bottom across it. The Zap shortcut along with a shortcut for wireless video are on the flip side.

This pic is not the widget that I had on my Turbo. This is the one that was on my Maxx. And yes, it did flip.

Oh. My bad. The one on the Turbo does not flip.

What it does do is open up wings on either side when you tap on the tiny dots to the left and right side.

It also gives a vibration like you're opening a zipper.

As FoxKat said the current Turbo Command widget is kinda of boring compared to the one that flips so you can flip one of the wings to see other cities. The Turbo widget does change color over the temp display as the temp. gets hotter o_O and as the Batt. goes down the green bar gets smaller aren't we lucky!! LOL

I agree, I actually like the old phone clock better than the new one. I'm going to look to see if it can be ported over and use it instead. The nice thing about the new clock from what I understand is that it can be installed on other phones, sort of the way this trend happens to be going. It would be nice to know that the old clock could be used on other phones as well, but it only works with Motorola launchers.

Off-topic, but does Moto still have the facebook and twitter widgets, or did that go away when they started toning down Blur?

That was the best way imo to view recent posts and I loved that it only loaded up the ones that I hadn't already seen on the widget. I could scroll through and catch up, like, and comment and didn't have to worry about missing anything the way I do now that Facebook buried the Recent Posts option in favor of the top stories garbage.

Gone.

The big difference with the new Widget is that it works on 3rd party launchers. "Circles" did not.
