Description
The main focus of the app consists in showing the meteogram on a small home screen widget (e.g. a 4X1 widget). Even while the widget does not occupy that much space on the home screen, it still manages showing the forecast in a clear way. Simply add a widget on your home screen, specify your location (or let the widget automatically determine your location) and the weather forecast appears on your home screen.
The meteogram shows the temperature and expected precipitation for the complete forecast period. Besides those weather elements, the wind speed, wind direction and air pressure can also be visualized on the meteogram. The user has all freedom to customize how the meteogram should look like.
Feature overview:
• Temperature, precipitation, wind and pressure
• Cloudiness / clearness indication
• Short-term forecast (next 24 or 48 hours)
• Short-term forecast for the next 5 days
• Lots of user settings: colors, weather elements, ...
Features exclusively available in this Donate version:
• Widget providing a long-term forecast (next 10 days)
• Show humidity percentage
• Show sunrise and sunset
• Show wind vane for wind direction
• Better (temperature) graph visualization (f.e. color the graph in blue when the temperature falls below freezing, custom line thickness and style, ...)
• Show moon phase
• Show wind chill
• Feature allowing you to save current settings as default settings
• Enable more weather providers (via in-app subscription)
• For the United States only: NOAA as weather provider
About the weather forecast data
All thanks to MET.NO (The Norwegian Meteorological Institute) for offering the weather forecast data (notice that for the long-term forecast period, one of the best weather models - ECMWF - is used by MET.NO).
For locations in the United States, NOAA is offered as short term weather provider.
NOTE: other weather providers can be enabled via in-app subscription.

5 ★ As former AIX weather user I can say this is even better. Good job. I hope more people will support your work.
5 ★ I installed the free version first, tested for a few days. It was so good I decided to donate! Very good job! I think I got more than what I looked for!
2 ★ I wish it could present the Day/Night as background shading (like AIX Weather) rather than just indicated at the bottom axis.
4 ★ Not so happy - seems that my donate version stopped to work properly and must needed to be reinstall - hard to understand main reason 🧐
5 ★ Great. Fixed the hole in my phone that was left when the AIX widget was abandoned.
1 ★ Thia update mesaes up scaling now on the widget the bottom row for next days forecast is truncated and is not readable . This is if you use enlarged screen. Previously it worked fine
5 ★ Very good application, and comprehensive information.
5 ★ A wonderful app. I love the graphics
4 ★ any option to change font size? i have very high dpi settings cause i like small fonts but playing with scaling doesn't do anything in terms of font size
4 ★ [older review] Widget is wonderful, although forecast is not always accurate. [updated review] On every update, widget stops refreshing data. App needs to be uninstalled, then installed again.
5 ★ This is the most-looked-at widget on my phone. Highly customizable. Pretty enough to be a feature of my home screen. So much info at a glance. A glitch in the last update broke the day/night indicator. I trust that will be fixed soon. EDIT: Dev contacted me about bug report immediately- same day. Reported bug was fixed and published within 24 hours. I'm impressed! App back to 100%. Thanks!
5 ★ This is a great replacement for Aix Weather. I'd used it for years, but it suddenly wouldn't update the data. It would only use Norwegian WX so the temperature was off, etc. This app is accurate as can be. You can set the meteogram up to extremes if you want, but I like wind speed and direction arrows, cloudiness, and some title items. I really like the day/night bar at the bottom. I played with the non-donate app (which has no ads) for 15 minutes, then paid the donation. Well worth it.
5 ★ Finally, a weather widget that tells me what I need to know without having to go into a weather app. With a quick glance I can see the temperature, cloud cover, and amount of rain for each hour for the next 24 hours (can be configured for 48 hours) and I can see a weather summary for 5 more days. Pressure, wind speed, wind direction, and humidity can also be added. You can choose the weather provider and both light and dark themes are supported. What would make this widget perfect would be to have options to remove the location from the title and the precipitation from the right y-axis for a cleaner look. These values don't change on my phone so they just clutter the screen.
5 ★ I used to have the AIX weather widget for years and loved it, but after Android Pie it just wouldn't work all the time, which was really frustrating. This is the perfect solution and is actually better than the AIX widget with more customisation options, including making the widget clickable for quick access to options and an expanded forecast. One of the very few apps that I have been happy to pay for. Well done.
5 ★ One of the best widget apps for weather forecasts. Well done Benny on a great app. Some suggestions / bugs: 1) On 7+ day forecast, the Min/Max badges should have an option to see what the Min/Max is for each day (not the whole week). 2) On 7+ day forecast, there seems to be a bug which means the graph doesn't start from "now", It is Thursday here, and it shoes Saturday as the first day (no label for some reason), and then Sunday onwards shows. I cant work out what is going on here. 3) In the title of any graph, would be good to have forecast "Min/Max temps" for the day in the title. 4) Can tides be added as an option? I'm picturing it to look similar to any of the other chart options, but instead tracks tides which are no doubt available via the weather service provider? Hopefully that's something to think about :). Great app though. Thanks - Tony
