another feature request for the nice Halo remote:
A nice looking full screen clock that greets me when Iโm approaching the remote and it activates the screen. With color and design options to choose from.
I think about that everytime Iโm walking past a Halo remote and the display comes to live.
Oh, and the option to active/deactive Alarms on the supported products with a simple on/off option.
I think that would be the opposite of what the user experience of the halo is intended to be. ย If you have a clock taking over the screen when you approach then you would have to have a user interaction to dismiss the clock. Even if that is a tap or a swipe itโs the same as having a dedicated iPad or phone at that point. ย The great thing about the halo is the motion detector so it essentially saves you the step of a unlock or activation.
This is one of the only 2 advantages the halo has over the alternatives.
Iโm clearly aware of the intended usage, yes, but the personal usage in our home shows this as a viable and elegant option. Of course the user can (and should) decide whether to have full screen clock displayed when approaching it or not.
