Nice work!

How do you get to the screen page? Seems like it sometimes open and sometimes not.
I think that the ATTENTION message is not really needed. You should instead save the new settings. This is the standard behavior.

 

[satomware]

You have to double tap on the widget to access settings.

A message box explaining this should appear when the installation finished! I don't know why you didn't see it!

Maybe it's better to write it in the description...

Regarding the ATTENTION message (I think you are talking about the one that appears when you press the back button), I thought it could be useful to exit without saving the adjustments done.

Thank you Erel!

Hi everybody!

I implemented weather forecast into my widget...

Please take a look and post your comments!

Thank you!

Looks really nice.

How have you done the free positioning of elements in your widget? Do you use one ImageView where you draw on?

What weather service are you using?

 

[satomware]

Many thanks! It's a honour to hear such words from you!

Yes, I used some ImageViews.

Now I'm using weather data from MSN Weather, but I'm going to test yr.no like you did. Their weather data seems really more accurate and detailed.

I must admit that I've taken inspiration from your work to realize my widget... I hope you don't feel angry about this with me!

Of course not. I'm always glad if someone can use or improve the things I do.

The feeds from yr.no are not the best choice for clock widgets with weather because they don't have current condition data, only forecast. It's really hard to find a feed that is free for commercial use and has good weather data.

Yes, you're right... Also Google Weather API project was recently dismissed...

Maybe I'll try to use both providers, one for current conditions and the other for forecasts.

However my widget is not based on weather forecast, so I think that there is enough space on Goolge Play for both our creations!

Hey weather frogs,
Give this a consideration:

Free Local Weather API Overview | XML Weather | JSON | CSV | Worldwide Weather | WorldWeatherOnline.com

All you need is an API key and you're done.
As far as I can see, the provided data is quite accurate.
