The next update will have us switching back to the main app :)

Hi All,
Our 1.5 update should be hitting the app store in the next 12-24 hours.
Something important to note ... the main screen mentions the app being 'subscription only' - please ignore. It will become subscription only eventually for all new users, but not yet. Anyone who has the app will not be asked to take out a subscription.
What's new or changed?

Hi All,
Just a quick update to say that 1.5.1 should be on the App Store shortly.
The main changes are:
1. Voiceover will announce the sunrise and sunset times in the weather wheel in addition to the smart weather conditions
2. Follow me should be working now, however, you might need to go into settings and set the location permission to 'always'
3. We removed the message at startup about the app being a subscription only service.
We've also squashed a few internal bugs.

Hi All,
Another update should be hitting the App Store shortly - sorry for the flurry of updates, we are trying to have more smaller updates and more often. It makes our testing easier.
The updates for 1.5.2 are as follows:
1. iPhone X: hopefully everything will now run fine when people get them on Friday. We've taken Apple's advice and avoided the new touch areas (safe areas Apple calls them). I'm hoping voiceover works just as normal.

Hi All,
Release 1.5.3 should be hitting the App Store shortly.
There are a few significant changes for voiceover:
1. Daily summaries for day / night are now available for each of the day menu buttons. As you swipe along the day menu, voiceover will announce a summary.
2. Enhanced summaries for widget, notifications and Apple Watch. Voiceover should now speak the summary in a more natural way, expanding cardinal points and temperatures. Please let us know if you find anything that isn't quite working.

Hi All,
Just a quick update to say that Weather Gods 1.6 has been released.
This has been a big update for us in terms of the internals of the app and the user interface. A lot has changed. We have also added Norwegian and I would like to say a massive thank you to Cliff Isaksen who carried out the translation and ensured that all the voiceover translations were spot on.
The changes are:

Hi All,
We've got another release just hitting the App Store about now.
Although only a point release, it does have some good stuff (I hope) :)

Hi All,
No, I didn't expect to be back quite so soon either :)
Unfortunately the last release introduced a very nasty random bug which would cause the weather wheel to crash. It affected about 2-3% of our user base, but I wasn't happy to leave it. Hopefully this one has now been squashed, although I was never able to reproduce it with my testing.
I also took the opportunity to fix a couple of other annoying bugs:

Hi All,
Just a quick note to say that Weather Gods 1.7 should be hitting the App Store.
The biggest update is for the Apple Watch, where we have greatly increased the range of complications for each watch face.
There is also a dedicated voiceover complication for each face that mimics the weather wheel, prioritising the weather conditions for each hour.
Other changes to the watch:

Hi All,
This release should be hitting the store shortly and hopefully fixes the notification problem.
Important: this is the first update from our new company Weather Gods Ltd. We've had many issues trying to get the update to the store. I'll try and describe the process and then the problem we have had.

Hi Everybody,
Release 1.7.2 should be hitting the App Store about now.
Despite being only a point release, it turned out actually to be quite large.
Where to start?

Hi Everybody,
I know we just got an update at the weekend but there were some really bad problems for the Apple Watch users, for which I can only apologize.
This update should fix the startup hang but also I had some other bug fixes scheduled for this release, which came sooner than I intended!
The other fixes:

Hi All,
Just a small update appearing on the app store shortly ...
1. We have improved the location tracking of the watch complication when running a GPS location. As a result of the tweaking, you should find the follow me notifications a little more reliable as well.
2. The weather not updating when resuming the app has been fixed.
3. Finally, the GPS location in the app will also update when the app is resumed.
Just a quick reminder ... to enable the watch complication in GPS mode:

Hi Everybody!
Our 1.8 release should be hitting the store by now.
It's taken longer than we expected, Siri proved challenging with Voiceover for us, but I think we got there in the end with the help of our iOS12 beta testers.

Hi All,
Our latest update should be hitting the App Store shortly.
The main change for this update was to improve the weather description in the notifications for rain, snow and thunderstorms. Previously you would receive "Light Rain" even if it was just a few showers or drizzle. Hopefully more useful.

Hi All,
Weather Gods 2.0 has been approved by Apple and should be hitting the various stores soon.
There is a lot that has gone into 2.0.
- Severe weather alerts for the USA, Canada, UK, Germany, France, Spain, Greece, Norway and Italy. I may add other European countries depending on demand. Canadians can choose English or French for the alert text.
- There are two new Siri shortcuts. You can ask Siri if there are any weather alerts for your current location, and ask Siri for the current weather conditions.
