2.0.27.1 | Appy Weather

Small change in the bump to 2.0.27.1: for new users, you can now skip the onboarding tour from the first screen, bypassing the paywall in the process. The [Skip] button that shows when you do the tour is also more prominent throughout, especially on the paywall.

New

When you pull up the drawer, you’ll now be able to select the precipitation amount data point — most useful when viewed on the Daily screen. Really sorry to all concerned for taking as long as it has to restore this popular data point. It may not be perfect across every surface, but I’ll look to polish its appearance across the UI in coming updates. Any issues you see or feedback you have about this, such as additional spots it can be added to, please let me know.
- This is now also a data point you can select as a condition for a smart subscription.

Improvements

When you change the app’s data point, Daily’s list rows will show the same weather icons as the default temperature view, and should feel better overall as there’s more consistency between switches.
Summary strings when rain occurs but is not prevalent should read more concisely.

Fixes

As part of the work to add the new precipitation amount data point, a full sweep of all other existing selectable points were done: This has resulted in their visibility/accuracy to be improved/corrected, especially on the Daily screen.
Correct sunrise/sunset times should always show, regardless of weather provider.
Summary strings for a period of days should not mistakenly indicate the weather at the start of the period is stable when it’s not.
