Description

BetterWeather is an extension for DashClock Widget.

** This extension is not recommended for use with third-party DashClock clones, I only test using the official widget and I am not responsible if things break. Please do not report issues using a third-party app. **

NEW: OpenWeatherMap API! Easily change API from the settings!

If you like this extension you can support my work and donate right from the app, thanks!

BetterWeather is now open source! You can clone the repo to add features and translations! I'll be happy to take your pull request! See the repo here: https://github.com/MarcDufresne/BetterWeather

It is based on the weather extension included with DashClock and allows you to set your own location, instead of relying on your network location.

It also contains more weather status icons than the original extension (Thunderstorms, Mostly Cloudy, Hail, etc.) and multiple icon themes.

Full feature list includes:
- Manual or automatic location;
- Refresh on touch;
- Custom shortcut on touch;
- Forecasts;
- Wind speed and wind chill;
- Humidity level;
- Lots of icons!
- High and low temperatures;
- Pebble smartwatch integration;
- and Custom refresh interval.

This extension uses OpenWeatherMap to get its data.

If you have feature suggestions or if you encounter any problem feel free to contact me through Google Play.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
