Description
••• IF YOU EXPERIENCE ISSUES: please contact me via the Contact Developer form or via wim@vaw.be, I'm happy to help! I try to respond within 24 hours. ••• Rain is a lightweight widget that shows you a graph of the upcoming precipitation. It's way faster than other radar widgets that needs to load radar images onto your watch. USA / UK / Ireland: Precise graph of the expected rain for the next hour. Belgium / The Netherlands / Norway / Sweden / Finland / Denmark: Precise graph of the expected rain for the next 2 hours. Worldwide: Graph of the expected rain for the next 6 hours. Rain shows you a combination of rain intensity and probablity. This is expressed as PL: Precipitation Load. Features: ⭐️ Multiple (fixed) locations ⭐️ Full day period option ⭐️ Temperature ⭐️ Location name ⭐️ Tap the graph for precise insights ⭐️ Optionally select OpenWeatherMap as data source The app is also able to give you Rain Alerts and share its data with watchfaces, these features however require more load on my server and weather services, which requires me to request for subscriptions for these features. Subscriptions are only $0.59 / month or $4.99 / year. ⭐️ Rain Alerts ⭐️ Sharing data with watchfaces (Complications) * ⭐️ Optionally select AccuWeather as data source ⭐️ Free access to the Rain Datafield: https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/0fe95bad-3238-4d62-90bc-000fc35e6000 When you open up the widget for the first time, it will need a location fix. Remember this will be the fastest when you're outdoors. Afterwards it remembers your locations and tries to update it in the background when possible. But to get an updated location it will be faster to be outdoors as well. With the Pro Version (subscription) you can also share Rain data with external watchfaces like Goals V (and more). You can have the graph appear there, the current rain as a percentage or a textual hint on when it is expected to rain. * https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/6d011c6e-a74d-45bc-8cee-a199a990b41c If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask, I'm happy to help!
