Question [Resolved] Weather App for P7
- Thread starter Skuddle
- Start date
You can put the Google Weather widget on your home screen which, when tapping, will take you to the web app, but it doesn't come with a separate weather app, per se. Plenty of weather apps in the Store though.
yes you can set up the "At A Glance" Home settings to display some weather information. Since you can't get rid of the Day and Date, you might as well add some stuff to the "At A Glance" part....
I know, but I think that person was looking for something other than the weather in At A Glance.
Sorry for the confusion...
I figured you knew...I only really quoted your post for continuity on what I meant to speak on/about -- the response was more for Skuddle...
Because I was speaking on adding it to At A Glance (which I wouldn't call a "separate app"), and the fact that we can't get rid of the Day & Date and with that weather part being baked in, I figured quoting your response was more on adding supplemental info/point of view (if anything, to bolster your take/advice) than it was to inform you on things you were already aware of....
Most weather apps have good enough working widgets that can be added to the home screen of varying shapes and sizes, depending on what you're looking for (@Skuddle), but I personally use Accuweather because it has (or at least attempts) to have minute-to-minute predictions rather than just by hour...
The widget can be set up to give you 3 day prediction or what is currently expected in the next hour, and it can be set up to follow your location.
But Accuweather hasn't really been "accurate" lately; then again, California has been having some crazy unpredictable rain this past winter.....
All I really want is for the temperature in Fahrenheit to appear in the middle of the Home screen.
But I'll take a look at "Accuweather" (now if that's not a contradiction in terminology I don't know what is) and see what it has to offer.
Thank you for your replies!

This website compares a large amount of weather providers by comparing ths actual weather to their predictions.
Weather Forecast and Weather Forecast Accuracy for Your City
5-day weather forecasts for the United States in a nice, easy to read format, AND the 1- to 3-day out accuracy of other weather forecasters (Accuweather, The Weather Channel, MyForecast.com, Intellicast, and the National Weather Service) including links to their forecasts.

If that's all you want, you really should just configure your "At A Glance" to display the weather...it basically does that -- not quite "the middle", but close enough and it is always going to be displayed....
I use weawow. They have a widget that just displays temp and you can set it in the middle. It also has more actuate location. My problem with at a glance weather is it only gives a generic result for my city instead of an accurate reading for where I am. It can be raining where I am and at a glace tells me it is sunny, because across town it is sunny.

What are your thoughts on this?
I am using web version via Yandex browser, which shows more detail forecasts and have professional gui design. This stand alone app is poor with details, there is no AQI, no wind / humidity / pressure / visibility reading clearly seen because graphical design is terrible, especially after recent graphical changes. Why would anyone install stand alone app then? Web version is way better.
