Hello again, sorry to be a burden , but I have some suggestions
First, I suggest moving the moderate risk and fair to the right because there is dead space there and it helps saving space

Screenshot_20240830_144153_WeatherMaster.jpg

Then you could use some of the shapes of the new Google Weather app for the visibility, humidity, wind and pressure

That's it , hope you understand my design choices!😀

Yeah, sure! I was thinking of changing the UI to look more like the new Pixel weather app. I'll include these changes in the next version. If you have any other suggestions, feel free to open an issue. Thanks for the feedback!

Well , I was thinking of replacing the radar with the open weather map one. It's not useful for viewing the past precipitation.

Yeah, I'm looking for a better radar that can provide future forecasts. Are you talking about the OpenWeatherMap radar from
openweathermap.org/weathermap

ak47m91 commented Aug 30, 2024

Yes , this one, I think it is quite reliable , and if you can , maybe you could keep them both

Actually , after further examination, open weather map has like the same algorithms like rain viewer for global precipitation. You can only see in the past

ak47m91 commented Aug 30, 2024

But still, I think it has more features than the standard rain viewer, but best If you can keep them both

"Yeah, but the OpenWeather API doesn't provide any timestamps, so it's just a fixed-time radar image

Okay, I have one more suggestion, or two.
First one would be that you maybe should the clothes recommendation above the hourly forecast because it is a hidden gemScreenshot_20240830_164823_WeatherMaster.jpg

And you could add all the frog pictures, and maybe design a widget like thisScreenshot_20240830_164928_WeatherMaster.jpg

ak47m91 commented Aug 30, 2024

Okay , some more suggestions...
So, you could center the summary of the day , and when it exceeds the row , you can return to the left alligment Screenshot_20240830_231228_WeatherMaster.jpg

Then you could add accuweather or weather api as weather provider

@PranshulGG
Copy link
Owner

Adding other weather providers doesn't add much value since the app already has OpenWeather, Open-Meteo, and Visual Crossing. Adding AccuWeather or WeatherAPI.com wouldn't provide significantly new data, as the app already covers most of it.

You added open meteo? Thats great , but I was saying to add them because sometimes they arent very accurate

@PranshulGG you should've kept WeatherMaster
Now I can't update it

Hm, yeah, I also have to change the widgets on the forecast page, just like the ones on the home page. Also, I was wondering, how do the animations look? There’s none for clear skies during the day because I’m not sure what to make for that.

@ak47m91

ak47m91 commented Oct 6, 2024

The animations are extremely good. For the clear sky you could just make a sun shining with rays

Yeah, that’s the issue—I can’t replicate it. I tried, but the canvas just doesn’t draw it that way. Maybe I’ll have to try something else, like birds flying or a wind animation with leaves.

Hello Pranshul, hope you're having a great day,
I got some suggestions for the next update
Firstly, you said that the rounded ui is coming to the next update, so I suggest you removing the day lenght and placing in in the sun tabScreenshot_20241006_194005_Weather Master.jpg

As for the ai weather report, i suggest you adapting the new design google introduced with the language the app has, and having a brief one displaying and when expanding showing a more detailed report.What do you say?

@PranshulGG

Yeah, I can consider doing that, but I think putting the day length in the insights container would be better as well.

@ak47m91

ak47m91 commented Oct 6, 2024

Yeah, better this way. One question, what size does the app have with all the froggy images?

@PranshulGG
Copy link
Owner

Yeah, better this way. One question, what size does the app have with all the froggy images?

There are too many; it’s about 56MB, but I haven’t checked the total package size. It’ll probably be more. I’m not going to add all of them—just three for each condition. I don't wanna make the app slow.

@PranshulGG
Copy link
Owner

Yeah, it's better this way, but you made me curios, what features does the debug have that the release doesn't?

It doesn’t have anything extra. What I do is maintain two different codebases: one for debugging, where I make changes, and then I apply those changes to the release version, which is more organized and optimized. So yeah, they’re the same in terms of functionality.

@ak47m91 Just wanted to show the weather report. It now calculates both hourly and full-day data to generate this. What do you think?

Screenshot_20241013-192216.png

The only problem is that it’s too long; maybe I can make it scrollable.

ak47m91 commented Oct 13, 2024

Looks good, yeah, you can make it scrollable. And maybe you could add one for the 14 day forecast that should calculate based on the details and the full day forecast

And this is what I did with the day length.

Nice, looks really good, what abt the froggy images, you could add 5 for every condition, it shouldn't take more than 50 mb

@PranshulGG
Copy link
Owner

There are 23 conditions, and if we make 5 for each, it would be 115 images.

ak47m91 commented Oct 14, 2024

Is it good or bad

@PranshulGG

It’s pretty bad—each image is at least 1-2MB, so the total app size would be around 123MB to 127MB.

Great to see all the suggestions and progress so far. Especially looking forward to the widget implementation.

Related to all of these, I would suggest including settings to toggle on/off some of the various sections, and perhaps allow reordering them if possible. Here's a screenshot from another app, Kvaesitso, that might inspire some design ideas:
Screenshot_20241016-105621_Kvaesitso

Also, I have one small question. Does this app provide severe weather notifications? I've seen discussion on notifications in general, but was unsure if that is included.
