Inconsistent sizes when you make your own icons. For example, I wanted everything in verdana, size 45 (not bold). For weekdays, if you select the third option from the left on the top row, every day of the week will be pretty much identical except Friday, which is a lot bigger, like 30% bigger. Same thing with months -- July is huge. The "make set" option doesn't let you select the size/position, so to get everything to look the way I want, I have to make each one individually, which can be a real slog -- 31 days, 12 months, 7 weekdays = 50 icons, one at a time. If the developer could fix these two issues, I'd give it 5 stars.

When using the create set option you can select the font and color you want, create the set, then just play with the size bar, select and save group of icons that fits.

Very simple app that does what I want it to do, and no ads make it even better! My only issue so far is that day, month and date are all different sized fonts, which makes it a little difficult to read and there are very few colors available. A bolder Sans-serif font would help readability immensely as well! The version I have installed doesn't show the manage icons button!? Having the option to show a 2 or 4 digit year would also be helpful! This should have been built into Android long ago!

GOOD) This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Nice, simple program, lets users put the date/day into the status bar. BAD) For some reason, it shows 3 notification bars (when swiping down to see notifications), that stay there permanently. The only way to remove them is to hide the notifications for the app, and then the hides the entire date/day in the status bar, making it pointless. So if you really want the day/date, prepare to have 3 permanent notifications. If it didn't have those, it'd be 100% perfect. 3 stars because it does.
