Be		 Reliably places the day of the week and date at top of screen in status bar ~ ~ ~ ♦EDIT 17 August '24---Sooooo it doesn't work on Android 12? Just got a new phone and after installing updates 'Date in Status Bar' no longer shows 😕. ALSO the latest version has full volume, screaming, unskippable ads, that DON'T RESPOND TO CLICKING THE 'X' TO GET RID OF THEM WHEN THEY'RE DONE! Well, it was good while it lasted.

Ravi Agarwal		 1. Date (number) and day (alphabets) only. I need month too. 2. There should be 2 types of arrangements. Vertical and horizontal. Vertical arrangement is difficult to see because font size is microscopic.

Tiana Sweet		 I have to manually add it multiple times a day which defeats g purpose. I kno its important that I go in for add exposure but once every 3 days was tolerable. Anything more is not. It's gotten way too frequent at this point. Deleted it

Rob Dexter		 Works well although only white works. Update: No change there after 4 years! Can't get rid of notification in drop down notifications which annoys me so uninstalled! 😂

Rachel Hawley		 Great idea if it worked. The dumb thing keeps turning off so you have to open it again, turn it off then back on to get it to reappear. Then do it over and over again the entire time you have this app. It's way more headache than it's worth for sure.

King Cobra		 Works great on Galaxy s23 Ultra!!! Easy. Simple. Functional. Been using this app on all my previous Galaxy phones. You would imagine in 2023 Samsung would make this a default setting or acquire this app. Overall, it just works. Get it.

DeAnna Cardona		 Any app from Wagwan!! So freaking frustrating!! 👎🏼 I have been using this app for years. I recently tried several others only to find out it's the same app with different names and logos! None of them last. They all disappear. I have to reopen the app remove the date and hit display again. Like every other day. I wish there would be one that would work consistently!!! Or if Android would just give us this feature on our phones! 👎🏼

Rod Ferdinands		 Cannot get the actual date. Is there purpose or reason for this? Surely when the app is opened, an explanation how to adjust the date would be usefuk. Like 99% of computer programs, much obvious things normal people would require, is to be left out.

Ronald Kelley		 Please please give us the year as well as month, and day and day date. Please! Be exemplary! Be different! Be better! Update: I'm amazed that no one except myself seems to believe the lack of the year is of no consequence. Certainly this app maker doesn't

Linda M		 This used to be a good app, now the date disappears all the time, but worse yet, is that 3x a day it sends a notification. So unless I want to turn off the notification (which turns off the date) or turn the sound off on all my notifications, it's useless to me One of the notifications is at midnight, every night. I just uninstalled it. WTH??
