✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Lightweight and simple—does exactly what it says without bloat
- Solid community trust with 188 endorsements and 15k downloads
- Recently updated (May 2026), so likely compatible with current game versions
⚠️ Cons

For players who want real-world time, date, and temperature at a glance without alt-tabbing. Great for immersion or streamers who need to track time. Skip if you want a feature-rich clock with alarms or custom styling—this is a bare-bones widget.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check if your game has a built-in clock or HUD element that might conflict—disable it if needed.
- If you use a mod manager, install via that for easy removal; otherwise, drop the files into your mods folder.
- Test in a menu or pause screen first to see if the widget overlaps with important UI elements.
