Hey, everyone! I just started rolling out an update for binoc that adds one big new feature: widgets for your Home Screen! The first one is the quote widget, which (you guessed it!) displays a quote from binoc. The second one is the intention widget, which displays the intention have set for yourself. Neat! I have started the rollout to production, which means this update will be available shortly on the Play Store. I hope you find these widgets useful and continue to enjoy binoc! As always, thanks for reading, and have a wonderful day! |

Regardless, I’ve been able to do lots of coding, video editing, and schoolwork on this computer, and it has generally worked pretty well. Granted, it can take a while...
