QuickWeather Update! now compatible w/ OS7 devices!

**CheetahAce** · 09-10-2011, 03:26 PM

QuickWeather has been updated to version 1.5 (all devices)

* Available for OS 5, OS 6 and OS7 devices.

QuickWeather will display your current weather conditions anywhere on your homescreen.

New Features v.1.5:
* minor bug fixes
* ZIP CODE NO LONGER SUPPORTED. - USE CITY NAME
* Radar might work better for those who had issues. MIGHT

New Features v.1.4:
* Added 'Humidity' and 'Wind Speed' to displayable options

* App icon now displays current temperature

* Text can now be aligned center left or right within the QuickWeather widget itself

* When returning to homescreen from another app QuickWeather will fade into view instead of suddenly appearing

* City and Current Conditions display options are now separate entities

* QuickWeather menu option will now take you to QuickWeather Options screen if pressed while QuickWeather is active

Features:
* Save Multiple Locations
You can now save an unlimited amount of locations. When you add a location it will now be saved in the 'Previous Locations' list so you can easily select a location. Locations can also be deleted from the list.

* Animated Weather Radar (Currently U.S. locations only. Sorry)
View animated radar of your current location or a locations stored in the 'Previous Locations' list.

Choose from the following types of radar:
Base Reflectivity, Storm Relative Motion, Base Velocity, One-Hour Precipitation, Composite Reflectivity, Storm Total Precipitation

Choose the following Overlays:
Topo, County, Rivers, Highways, Cities, Warnings and Legend
There is a help screen for the radar types that briefly explains what each type is for etc

* 7 Day Text Forecast (Currently U.S. locations only)
View a detailed 7 day text forecast for your location

* Location Aware setting
[Cell Tower Location or GPS Location]
Enable this feature to have QW automatically determine your current location. GSM Devices will use cell tower location if available. If GSM cell tower information is not available or you have a non GSM device (ex: CDMA) QW will use GPS location if GPS service on your device is enabled.

* Temperature 'Feels Like' display
(heat index / wind chill factor value)

* New Location ID method
You can now enter your City Name, or Zip Code, province, municipality etc to set your location.
No more going to the Yahoo Weather page!!
Example: 'Tokyo' or 'New York, NY' or 'London, England or '92129' etc;

* Displays current temperature and hi/lo forecast
* Choose update frequency
* Change background color
* Change text color
* Set transparency level
* Set on-screen location
* Display weather conditions or city name
* Celsius or Fahrenheit
* 2 layout styles

* Also includes 5 day Graphical Forecast display (not a widget but a popup window) which displays temperature forecast, current temperature, current humidity level, wind speed and sunrise / sunset times

Unlike other weather apps, QuickWeather does not work by changing your wallpaper.

QW has a very small footprint, is not active when the backlight is off or your device is in bedtime mode and has no lag or battery drain effects on your device. A Quick and Simple glance at your weather!

Disclaimer: Animated Radar is sometimes flaky. This is due to the radar data being obtained from the National Weather Service and their servers are sometimes unreliable. I will try to find a better service for radar data in the future.

Price: Only $1.99!!

Should I take your silence as an indication that these features are not forthcoming?

you should take the silence as i'm busy atm and i didnt say the requested features would be in this release and they aren't indicated in the 1st post as new features. this release was just to get the app compatible with os7. dont wana throw in new features with a new os. first things first

**CheetahAce** · 09-11-2011, 11:58 PM

i'll let u know when im working on it tho

**Niikolai** · 09-12-2011, 06:33 AM

so i bought the quickweather app but when i got to set the home screen location for the widget, it does not allow me to...it just backs me out of the program..

this is the link i used to find out that quickweather is OS 7 supported:

QuickWeather Update! now compatible w/ OS7 devices!

what am i doing wrong? i have a bold 9900...

***EDIT*** i tried sending an email via the nikkisoft contact page on their website, but the email is pending...and has been for the last 45 minutes...apparently you can't even contact them now.

thanks in advance and for reading,

When on the homescreen hit the menu button and scroll to QuickWeather and click on it. You should now be activated. Then go to QuickWeather and set the homescreen location.

**Niikolai** · 09-12-2011, 07:18 AM

well then...that made it work..thanks, but now i have the same issue as frost power does...the widget stays ontop of the menu when i open it

**miz_pimp** · 09-12-2011, 09:38 AM

I've downloaded the Free Trial, to test it out before buying, but it's only giving me the Activate screen. I can't try it out at all. Any help, please?

**brown3636** · 09-12-2011, 11:38 AM

I also just downloaded the free trial and it is asking me for an activation code

any help?!

**CheetahAce** · 09-12-2011, 01:11 PM

There is no trial for QW. I have no idea why it's showing up on the store. I wrote mobihand support so they will take care of it. The app wont work unless it has been purchased.
