for more details.
This version is still an experimental one, with a significant rewrite of the refresh process core, especially on current locations. Weather data for all locations will be reset due to a major technical change in the database. A simple refresh will bring it back.
Removed features
Mean daytime/nighttime temperatures as threshold lines. Use a normals source instead
[Met Office UK] Removed address lookup feature
Pressure unit - Kilogram force per square centimeter
Improvements and fixes
Main screen - Allow to move small blocks by drag & drop
Main screen - The number of items displayed at once in daily/hourly forecast now depends on display size and font scale (previously always 5 in portrait, and 7 in landscape)
Main screen - Show “Negligible” inside Pollen block if there is no pollen today instead of an empty block
Main screen - Allow up to 5 blocks on a row depending on width display size and font scale
Main screen - Move refresh time out of app bar when scrolling
Main screen - Fix settings not applying immediately
Main screen - Fix shooting stars getting stuck in the corner in landscape
Details - Add a bottom margin at the end of each page, so that it doesn’t overlap with the floating button
Details - Don’t animate charts when “Other element animations” is disabled
Details - Air quality - Add individual charts for each pollutant
Details - Humidity/Dewpoint/Cloud cover - Show min/max of the day
Details - Pressure/Visibility - Fix sometimes wrong daily value
Details - Fallback to current value on Today screen when daily value is missing
Details - Add visibility and cloud cover scales
Details - Fix top X-axis sometimes showing “-” for some sources
Details - Charts are now slightly wider following the removal of start and end paddings by removing midnight labels
Alerts - Add “Translate” and “Share” to text select actions
Nowcasting chart/Precipitation notification - Fix slightly wrong ending time of precipitation report
Settings - Improve the location-based dark mode preference to make it easier to understand
Sources - Add a “Recommended” section to the Source selection screen
Refresh - Fix a rare crash when Android fails to send us the current location
Refresh - Add an error when air quality forecast times don’t match hourly forecast times (observed in India, for example)
Refresh - Ensure range of (almost) all values provided by sources, so you no longer have to freak out when seeing -999° with PirateWeather or 1015° with Meteo AM
Data sharing - Fix crash when sending too many locations (will now retry with less locations)
Widgets - Improve UX of custom subtitle documentation (
@codewithdipesh
)
Widgets - Improve line height on many widgets
Widgets - Weekly - Spread day/night temperatures on 2 lines if necessary
Widgets - Minor fixes
Wallpaper - Due to some people running outdated versions of Breezy Weather just to see some gimmicks on their wallpaper, we bring back wallpaper animations behind a dangerous disabled-by-default option. We STRONGLY advise against enabling them.

Translations

Translation is done externally

on Weblate

. Please read carefully project instructions if you want to help.

English (and regional variants) and French translations are maintained by repo maintainers, but they are open to proofreading/improvements. You will need to make a pull request, as we didn’t find a way to make these languages in suggestion-only mode in Weblate (let us know if you find anything).

For unit formatting, we use

Unicode data

as much as possible. If you believe there is an error, please

open a discussion

with evidences that the changes you suggest is the recommendation for your language.

If you are not comfortable writing a GitHub discussion/issue in English, you can ask on the channel if someone can help you in your language.

We also have a dedicated help channel in French:
