The ads don't worry me, I was more laughing at the fact that of all the ads to take a screenshot of and post online, it's one of hot babes. Out of curiosity I'll try it again later with GPS on. Thanks for such a great widget.

wintersm:
I will have a look sometime in the next couple of days to include some of the above, maybe I show the 39 minutes in the large number.

I think also if there is broadband zone data and no national data, then the zone data total will show? or maybe I add options to which data points are shown.. that might work..

Anyone up for a "paid" version without adverts - maybe $2 USD its a thought.. just trying to make some pocket money from my creative hobby.

i think you should add options what to display in the widget. for me, i would love to see the national data balance instead of talk time as this was limited to 50MB only for my plan. knowing when to buy more pack is very important (until 2degrees could offer something useful)

if you want to make a paid version, please use the android market.

I was thinking about providing options for what to show, Looks like i know all the items that show up now.

Android market is a problem for me at the moment, being the $25 USD fee to join up, the one I am using at the moment is free, and if I put up a paid app i get all the $ (via paypal) instead of just some..

Will see how I go on downloads for free for the time being until the app stabilises on features.

:)

Keep an eye open for updates.

Just posted an update..

Adds Update After Wifi Connected.
Adds Ability to specifiy what is displayed on the widget.
Improve error reporting where needed.

That should help a few people..

It may need an un-install before re-install, not sure there, might be something to do with the change in permissions.

On the main app screen, the year of expiry dates of all services became '201' not 2011.

Thanks again though, just pointing out possible bug.

Excellent widget!!!! This is flawless for pay monthly plan. I suggest you change the title for this thread as this can be used for all 2degrees users (pay monthly or prepay). I still think you should put this on the market. Maybe 2degrees team can help you?

Its very nice - only issue being sometimes when I come back to the phone and wake it up, and hit the widget to see the details, its blank. Have to update again. Is that intended?
