Ratings and reviews

I like the app, however, the most recent update where it no longer shows the temperature in the notifs bar is annoying. It shows the weather, not the temp, now. I can look outside and see its cloudy or raining. Id prefer to still see the temp on my notifs bar without having to open my phone. The toggle option in settings also still says that it will display the temp, not a weather icon, so if it is to continue a weather icon, this setting needs updated.

I have the app installed as a widget on my home screen. It's supposed to show the current weather where ever I am but it doesn't. It is supposed to update the temperature/forcast every hour but it does not. In fact, the weather doesn't even show unless I open the app itself. It used to work great, but it hasn't done what it's supposed to do in months.

I've been using this local app for YEARS, and have loved it! However, the newest update is bad. Instead of showing the temperature in the notification tray, it shows a sun, and then you have to pull down to see the temperature. Previously, it showed the temperature in the notification icon.
