Description
Wouldn't it be cool if the alarm clock shortcut on your homescreen wasn't just a static image, but a moving, live clock? Well, that's exactly what this is :-)!
HOW-TO: 1. Long-press on a free area of your homescreen 2. Select "Add Widget" 3. Find the "Live Clock Shortcut"-entry in the list and drag it to a free area on your homescreen 4. Configure it to your liking (Design, Label on/off) and tap on "Save"
You can then remove your old, static alarm clock icon. Tapping on the new icon will launch your stock alarm app.
The widget uses a standard Android system component and therefore has zero impact on your battery life.
PLEASE NOTE: This is not an app, meaning that you won't find a new entry in your app drawer once you've installed it. It is a *widget* that can be added to your homescreen as described above
Recent changes: v1.1: - Ability to select a custom shortcut (e.g. to a different clock app) - Ability to set the label font to "bold" - Set Google Experience Launcher font as standard

Wonderful dynamic clock icon replacement! After installing Nova Launcher onto my Pixel 2 XL, the default dynamic clock icon went static. This icon widget brings the functionality back! Connects to the stock Clock application - this is plumbing, not an application. And it's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks, developer - this filled the gap perfectly. Bravo.

Good but can be improved Concerning the seconds: The developer's reply confirmed my thoughts about animated seconds being too cpu-intensive. I would then simply remove the second hand as it serves no function. Thanks for the reply. The font still does look different to the one used by GEL. It has no shadow, is thicker and higher in size. This results in the widget looking different to the normal icons as it is a bit bigger.
