The issue you discovered with the unresponsive button os a bug, thanks for finding it. You can still switch, if you click the checks on the right, I just forgot to attach the text to the click. That will be updated this week.
I want to add a widget at some point, so keep an eye out for it in the future.
The free API basically is just less information. Shorter forecast, 5 vs 8 days, 3 hours vs 48, etc. the details are mostly the same, just essentially looking through a smaller window.
Yeah, NordVPN does that now if you have notifications turned off. I turned them off because I would get notifications that were basically ads. Now, I have to dismiss their “please turn notifications on” screen every time I open it up. This will be my last subscription with them.
That’s a great question. I’m using the API from Open Weather. It’s free for the first 1000 requests, then like fifteen cents per 100 after that. They also have a free version of their API.
Eventually, if enough people start using it, I’ll switch to the free, limited version. So I don’t share this app with others much.
What am I getting out of it? I built it because I was tired of other weather apps and also wanted something to add to my portfolio since I’m trying to switch from SDET to Android developer.
