## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 2.0.1 — 2016-10-25

So much new stuff in this version that I decided to call it V2.0!
- Swipe left/right to change between different data views
- Main page now shows way more current information including a 3 day summary, wind direction and speed, cloud cover, humidity and barometric pressure as well as a super fancy visualization of the sunrise/sunset.
- New Chart view to show trends in temperature and precipitation amounts. Can change between one, three and five days.
- Updated original 5day/3hour view to group into days for better readability.
- Added settings view with ability to turn the changing background off and use a plain greyscale one.
- BUG FIX: Precipitation display was in % but should have actually been in mm/in
- Other various improvements/bug fixes.

With all these new features, there is the potential for bugs, so if you find any be sure to contact me and let me know so I can fix them ASAP!
Enjoy the awesome update!
