JAMOHR001  I have used the trial version for 15 days although without fully using all of its features. I'm now debating whether I want to pay the $16 to keep it on my Mac. I also think it's steeply priced, though cool.

It's one of very few widgets I keep around, and seems more accurate than the weather widget, that yesterday told me it was raining as the sun poured in my window. (Which to believe, widget or window... widget or window...)

One thing I question is why it can only go back to 1932, and worse, goes no further than 2020. Aren't there available tables Veleclock could use that go much farther in both directions?

Yes, I know, the world ends in 2012 according to another popular calendar app, but I choose to live in denial, and I want my software to support me therein, more than 8 measly years past Doom.

PETERT  Like others here I have little use of (most) widgets. Velaclock is one of those that I have regular use for. It is a simple elegant widget that does what I need, it gives me the time in all the time zones my clients are in, and then just gets out of the way (as do all widgets.

IMO it is worth the money.

Have a Great day!

THUS.SPAKE.Z  I don't care for widgets either but I do like Velaclock Deluxe. What I'd like to see is VCD made into an app with the addition of a menu bar toggle to activate and quit it. I'd pay $16 for it then, but $16 for a widget? Never.

LORD THUNDERFART  While VCD is very nicely put together and works quite well, I don't think that it's worth $16. It's still just a widget and NO widget is worth that much, IMHO.

OK, I'll admit it, I just don't think much of the whole widget concept...in fact I detest widgets. True, I can use Amnesty Singles to turn a widget into a small app, as God intended, but I'm just not gonna pay $16 for VCD. So I just won't purchase it.

I feel the same way about the standard Velaclock which sells for $10.

CN_STEVE  What kind of 'backup' does one need for an opinion?

This widget is no worth the money. That's how I feel after purchasing it. Why? Well because it's just not that nice of a widget, I've found others that are comparable / better that are free.

Do you want me to list those here? Would that be appropriate?

VELADG  Hello Don,

If you have a problem to report, please contact us directly either with the "Send Feedback" button on the back of the widget or from our web site.

The built-in software update should work fine. We have not received problem reports from other users concerning that issue. Does it work for you in the latest version of VelaClock Deluxe? Please contact us directly.

Thank you,
