Of course, you already knew that.
But whatkindof a computer is it, exactly?
Elixir has both an app and a widget component, and we’ll be looking at both.
Let’s start with the app first:
That’s what you see when you first launch Elixir.
It’s basically along(two screen-lengths) list of equipment specs and stats.
But Elixir isn’t even getting warmed up yet.
Let’s try tapping the top-most entry:
Turns out Acer is dubbed the Liquid E “Salsa”.
Quite an interesting moniker for such a humble smartphone.
Oh, and yes, I’ve got a Liquid E, and now everybody knows.
Or file a very specific bug report that makes it clear you really know what you’re talking about.
This app really cuts no corners.
Let’s move onto the the sensors tab:
Wow, that’s a lot of sensors.
They all update in real-time.
Note that the other properties (Version, Resolution etc.)
are not provided by the sensor.
Next, the “running” tab:
This is divided into three sub-tabs.
Before looking at the widget, let’s see what configs this comprehensive app offers.
But then it gets interesting:
Turns out Elixir can show constant system information right on your status bar.
it’s possible for you to either see the information in vertical bar or circle style.
Elixir also offers prefs to let you tweak exactly what each icon in the app does.
What happens when you tap the battery icon, and what happens when you tap and hold it.
The same goes for each and every icon in the whole app.
you’re able to literally spend hours configuring this beast.
But we’re not going to do that!
Instead, we’ll be moving onto the the widget:
This is Go Launcher’s Add Widget dialog.
As you might see, Elixir dominates the list.
By default,allwidget types are enabled, and Elixir takes up 19 lines (!)
of the available widget list.
That’s seven buttons that fit in what would normally contain just four buttons.
It’s literallypackedwith functionality.
I think that’s due to a conflict with No Lock.
