Android Widget for Mach-E [Less Complex]

[kodiakng]

I'd thought about making the widget update every minute, Independent of the update interval, but didn't know if that would impact battery life.

i wouldn't think it would since (i think) it would only be the last refresh time value being updated without a server refresh - i have a couple other widgets that update pretty frequently that don't draw a lot of battery.

however, i may be a corner case with my use of the elapsed/relative time setting instead of absolute time.

On second thought, updating every minute would only be useful when the location is set like you have it. Nothing else would be changing until there was new info from the servers.

Just want to give my appreciation for the widget and show how accurate and easy data it displays as the widget. First pic is car scanner pro showing charging rate.

Second is widget. Spot on. Nice.

Thank you for the work on this.

Uploaded version 2024.04.07-09 to GitHub and Play Store. This adds support for Polish, Norwegian, Spanish, and Portuguese, plus add per-app language selection inside "Setting" for Android 9 an up. Thanks to @miken for the majority of the Polish translation; I used Google Translate to fill in the HTML pages until he's completed those.

Anyone noting weird things in the widgets due to text being too long, create an issue on GitHub or DM me here.

I wanted to add for anyone who tries the Norwegian locale: please let me know if it doesn't work right since it's not clear which locale I need to use (I code the app for "nb-NO", but Google Play only recognizes "no-NO").

Uploaded version 2024.04.16-18 to GitHub only. This fixes some issues with the UpdateActivity (a GitHub only module) that I noticed related to aborting/cancelling an update.

In addition, it adds code to prepare for locale-specific entries in the change log. Those will not be apparent until the next update.

Not sure what you're requesting. Are you asking to make the widget to work on Android Wear devices? If so, that's been an open request for two years (the first request on GitHub), but I haven't looked into it for a number of reasons.

I'm trying to use the app in Belgium but cannot log into the fordpass login.
The error is "Unable to login to server"...
Does the app work in Belgium? Other Belgian users that've tried this?

I don't know if there are any user from Belgium. Google's Playstore isn't indicating any. Can you enable logging, try to log in, and attach the logfile to a new issue on GitHub?

Someone posted a new issue on GitHub about login issues, and it appears Ford is using different URLs now for authentication. This doesn't seem to affect getting refresh tokens, so if things are working for you just don't try to log in.

I just pushed new versions out which replace the login with a pop-up dialog explaining it doesn't work right now. ? Folks in the FordPass Home Automation are looking for a solution (which I use since I have issues figuring this out myself) so once they come up with something I'll replicate it.

i keep wondering when my token will expire but it's held on for now. unfortunately, my home assistant add-on wasn't so lucky. ?
