We are open to feature requests for the app. We can't guarantee we will add all of them, but definitely open to considering all suggestions!

The app works on Tablets, but does not scale overly well. It is targeted at phones.

Recent changes:
• Nowcast radar refreshes automatically when returning to the app, including from a home-screen widget.
• Radar keeps its current loop during updates and retries failed refreshes.
• Fixed clipped forecast temperatures in the 4×2 clock widget. Text and icons adapt to widget size and display/font settings.
• Location and “Feels” stay together. The widget refresh icon and tap area are larger.
