Air Quality

[RageGamerBoi]

Air quality is starting to feel like a very important metric for anyone in the US right now...

(it's not that bad where I am, and the worst is over, but it's still there)

It would be very nice to have it in the app to check, similar to the UV index metric.
Thanks :)

[Saijin-Naib]

Yeah, this would be invaluable

[farfromrefug]

yes I plan on adding it. open météo has an api for this.
the question is also how to integrate this ux wise.
any idea is welcome.

[Saijin-Naib]

The US EPA AirNow app handles it like this.

@Saijin-Naib nice. But in this app we need a clean way to add it within the current UX. The thing is how do you add more and more data (pressure, air quality...) without cluttering and within the available space

[azertylr]

Yes it would be nice, as open-meteo API can provide this information!
Maybe as a new page, to avoid adding too much data on the main page?

@azertylr @Saijin-Naib @RageGamerBoi is that design ok with you?

[RageGamerBoi]

Looks good but feels out of place, like it's too big compared to the other icons.
I think it should be very slightly scaled down, but otherwise it’s great 👍

[farfromrefug]

@RageGamerBoi thanks foe the insight! Will test further. Might also test a new design based on an icon like other weather data

@RageGamerBoi here is another design:

I like that. The leaf could be rotated a little bit counter-clockwise, but otherwise it's good 👍

it looks very nice! Great job :) I would write AQI in upper case.
Is it possible to have the details of the air quality index if we click on the leaf?

[farfromrefug]

@azertylr tried aqi in uppercase but it looked weird compared to "other" infos. Will try again.
As details yes i ll add it in the future. But not in the first iteration.

[farfromrefug]

@azertylr @Saijin-Naib @RageGamerBoi new version out with basic AQI support. Will add more in the future

@azertylr @Saijin-Naib @RageGamerBoi i have added pollutants and pollens on daily view. I will close this now.
Still one thing i would want is alternative sources
