Chapter
Utilities: Clock,
Calculator, and Weather
The DROID is useful for a great number of tasks, and it comes preloaded with several
powerful and interesting utilities. One of the nice aspects about having a DROID is that
many of its simplest and easiest-to-use apps and abilities are things that you will find
yourself using quite frequently.
In this chapter, we will walk you through how to use several such apps and features,
including your clock, the built-in
Calculator
app, and the
Weather
app. Specifically, we
will show you how to set the clock’s alarms, including how to use the snooze feature
and dismiss alarms. We will also show you how to use both the
Basic and Advanced
modes of the built-in calculator. Finally, we will show you, not only how to configure the
built-in
Weather app, but also how to download other free weather apps you might want
to add to your DROID. We will also show you how to add a Weather and Clock widget
to your
Home
screen for easy viewing.
Your DROID can replace your wristwatch and even your
alarm clock. You can use it to set multiple alarms – even
a different alarm for every day of the week. Finally, you
can set up a widget for the clock right on your
Home
screen. You can do all this in the Clock app on the
DROID and in the Alarm and Timer app on the DROID 2
and DROID X.
Another extremely useful application is your DROID’s
built-in
Calculator
app. You can use this app to
determine the tip for your meal or to perform other simple
calculations. For example, you might use it to determine
how much 120 licenses of the Made Simple Learning
video tutorials would cost a company.
