So far so good. No sudden crashes and all. I think a "dark theme" would be nice as well.

Dark theme would be nice indeed, where is the sensor location on the phone ?

Temperature and humidity sensor is just next to the large physical home button in galaxy s4. I will sure implement dark theme in coming week.

Off to a great start!!!

The idea is superb!
So far the app looks simple enough, haven't had any problems/bugs, so far.
What I really like, is that the app actually shows the ambient humidity, haven't seen that in any other apps so far!!

Are there any settings to be found? Am I just blind or there really isn't none?
Would be nice to choose what to show on graphs and what values to show at all.
Also: I'm seeing three temperatures, one in Celsius, on in Farenheit and another one in Celsius. The bigger (font) Celsius (on the left) seems to correspond to my room temperature, but the other one is ~8-9 degrees lower and doesn't seem to fixed with the room temperature. What is the other Celsius supposed to show? It's too low for battery and I don't have any other ideas.

A dark theme is definitely on the top end of my list, as I'm in love with the gorgeous amoled of our S4's!
What I'd like at some point is a way to send data to tasker, especially if you plan to get all the sensors working, then a plugin with tasker would make the userbase of the app even bigger, as tasker doesn't show anything special from S4 yet (I saw from tasker's homepage that the temperature variable is coming in an update, but that's all for now), no barometer, hygrometer and so on info.
A widget would be nice too, but I would like the tasker plugin more, as I like to create my widgets with UCCW.

Anyways, you're off to a great start! I'm going to be checking in on this thread regularly!
Thanks for your great idea and app,
Taavo

installed app is perfect for me, i travel a lot and i dont trust weather sites or channels played with it a lot, havent seen any issues. Got a question though, is it possible to get wind reading or need a special tool for it? tnx
P.S. Wind direction, elevation with medium font for easy to see, i used your app to get quick measurements to shoot ))))))))))))

 

[sanris]

Wind measurement is not possible using build in sensors of s4. i hope it will be available soon.

Implementation is possible, but it needs gps and readings taken from 3rd party site. anyhow i will check it out when i am free.


* working items
settings page to customize most of things
Centigrade value for due point
Freeze button to stop changing readings for few seconds (in future, i plan to use this button add the freeze values into database and you can export it to excel or something...)

you can expect next update on monday.

 

[kendragon]

for due point do you mean dew point?

Works great, thanks.
But I didn't find how to change the main temperature to °C (to choose between °F and °C would be better).
And a 3 digit precision in temperature decimals is illusory : even professional thermometers have a 1-digit precision only.

yes, its dew point. sorry for that.

 

[mrachni]

Looking and working nice.
+1 for dark theme
And i think it will be better if you can choose betwen F and C.
Thanks.

Hm, any info about battery drain? I think that app use media services and drain is huge. After uninstall app media services stop working in deep sleep. With battery stats i see sensors-media services. Strange

i used only Sensor.TYPE_AMBIENT_TEMPERATURE in previous versions. so its not related to media services.

so far there is only two problems i think,

1 problem may be related to multiple running of instances. i will implement a previous instance check when launching app and auto kill or popup previous instance instead of starting another instance .

2 problem may related to the scheduled timer. i will try some other battery efficient way.

use exit button to completely close the application instead of android sleep.

if any other users feel battery drain, pls let me know.

inmeanwhile i uploaded next version with AirView support & C & F switching

Nice app! I would like to see an option that shows only Celsius or Fahrenheit in the graph. Furthermore, a dark theme would be really appreciated (I guess I'm not the only one who likes to have that). And the last thing: make the exit pop-up dialog (and maybe button too) more holo-ish. You've done a very good job with this app.

 

[zarulizham]

nice!
