Needs to be PERSISTENT... Sometimes it disappears ... and horizontal placement keeps shifting on its own. I already paid for all options. Please fix, and you'll earn 5***** Thank you

Exactly what I wanted - to see the FULL date including the year, which competitions like Time Bar simply can't do. Love how much you can tweak the size and color of the text. One idea to aid visibility would be an 'invert window color' for the text. So e.g. if on white bg, the text turns black. If on red bg, text is inverted to light blue, etc., so then it will always be visible. Other than that, love this!

When you switch it from dd/mm/yyyy to mm/dd/yyyy for example on April 20, 2021, in the mm/dd/yyyy format it gives the reading 22/20/2021 instead of 02/20/2021, and it doesn't put it in the status bar. Doesn't work very well. Thank you for the reply. That worked. The only issue now is that it's ont in the status bar it is just below it and I can't seem to get it to move any further up and if I do, it will cover other things in the status bar. Any solution to this?

★★☆☆☆
Can't put date on status bar unfortunately
★★☆☆☆
It turns off every night. I have to goto the app every day and activate it. Very annoying.
