Hi All,

Just dropping by to say that Weather Gods has been updated with some improvements for accessibility:

- New settings item so that you can hear the individual weather sounds and understand what each sound represents
- Fixed the units label speaking the wrong value in voiceover
- Added local time to current location label so when you load weather for places in different time zones, you get the local time for that place
- Add a hint to setting header indicating tap to close
- Fixed voiceover saying current now temperature on day views, when it shouldn't
- Added a hint to tap twice with two fingers to hear the weather for the current hour in the weather wheel
- Voiceover speaks the notification name when entering the settings page for each notification
- Voiceover indicates if you have paused notifications when landing on the notification button for each place

Please keep feeding back bugs and suggestions for improvements, all very welcome.

Can I ask a massive favour please, if you like the app, would you mind leaving a review on the App Store. The reviews determine our place in the search rankings and the better we do the more we can drive sales, and therefore the more we can invest back into the app.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us by purchasing the app and all those brilliant beta testers who have helped make the app what it is.

Thanks Toonhead and taichung

I'm still looking at ways to not have to keep the app in the switched. Apps such as Facebook, Snapchat etc are classified as 'voice apps' or 'message apps' and they don't have the force quit problem.

Picked up some great reviews, really appreciate it, thanks!

Nice job on making all that weather data easy to parse. Have fun adding new things. :) Your data is more accurate and complete than the stock Apple weather app. I didn't buy any other weather things, so I can't comment on those other than that it looks like I don't need to bother looking for those now. Thank you for making it worth the price.

Hi.

I truly love this weather app its for me one of the best I've ever used.

I do have problems telling the sunny sound and the partly sunny sounds as they sound almost the same.

Would it be possible to have maybe a louder sound for sunny etc.

I would love to see barometric pressure put in at some point I like to see what the pressure is in millibars for my area gives me a good idea if bad weather is coming.

Once again a fantastic app and I truly love it.

hi Snowyowl,

Thanks for the feedback on Weather Gods.

We've had a few requests for barometric pressure and I have added it to our future feature list.

We are also re-working the sound mixing so I will make sure the sunny sound and partly sunny sound is brought to the attention of our sound guy

Not much of a weather geek but added this superb app to my collection out of curiosity.
