Grab Moto Z Circle Clock Widget on Android (no Root Required)
Motorola has managed to surprise us all with the release of the all new Moto G4 Plus, and Moto Z, a new device series by Motorola and Lenovo. I am not only talking about the major hardware changes, but there are also plenty of new software features worthy of your full attention even if you don’t intend to be the owner of any of these devices in the near future.
While the modular software features are only available for the Moto Z lineup, there are also some amazingly good looking widgets that you might be interested about for your own Android handset. For example, the new Motorola Circle Clock Widget is great and if before you could only have it on any Moto device which is rooted, unlocked, as well as backed up by the TWRP recovery (thanks to gourabpa, an XDA-Senior Developer), you can now easily port the amazing Circle Clock widget by Motorola to any Android device you might currently have in your pocket.
And I must tell you from the start that this is an ordinary APK that you can install despite of the fact that your handset might not be rooted. After all, this is a matter of choice, so if you are pleased by things as they are, no one is forcing you to take another decision. However, in order to succeed, verify that the phone has the Marshmallow-based stock or custom ROM on it or you are simply wasting your time as the procedure won’t work.
