A full-screen weather app designed to be an always on wall mounted tablet There's a million weather apps out there, but I wanted one that was designed for a wall-mounted tablet. I had some requirements and a wish list: • It has to be full screen - take full advantage of the screen with no system status bar • It needs to keep the screen on all day and go dark at night • It needs to be simple to use and readable from a distance • And most importantly it needs to look great - this is a wall mounted tablet after all BASIC FEATURES • Beautiful Backgrounds: full-screen photography that changes with the current weather conditions • Large Current Temp: in collapsed view you just get the background and a large temperature - simple, and it looks great on a wall • Hourly Forecast: a full day of hourly temperatures with chance of precipitation • Daily Forecast: up to 10 days of lows/highs and chance of precipitation • Future Radar: animated radar showing the next 3 hours for your location • Full Screen Radar: a full screen map you can pan and zoom, with play/pause and a slider to scrub through the next few hours • Pollen Forecast: the next 5 days of pollen levels • Weather Details: additional details about the current weather • °F or °C: one switch in Settings; wind, pressure and visibility follow it • Refresh: automatically on a schedule you pick (10 minutes by default) or manual refresh ADVANCED FEATURES • Multiple Locations(*): add your current location or search by city, then swipe between them • Full Screen: use the entire screen - no system status bars taking up space • Dashboard Mode(*): option to keep the screen ON during the day and turn it OFF at night or a screensaver with wake on motion - essential for a wall mounted tablet • Multiple Weather Icon Sets: select from 4 sets of weather icons to find the one you like best • Configurable Weather Source: Open-Meteo (the default - no API key needed), Visual Crossing (API key) or OpenWeatherMap (API key) • Configurable Pollen Source: pollen.com, Open-Meteo, or an optional worldwide source (API key) • Reorder Sections: re-order the various weather sections to fit your needs • My Photos: add your own photos to the weather background or as a screensaver (*) Dashboard mode and adding 3 or more locations require a small 1-time in-app purchase to unlock everything

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Pickleball Forecast at every 3 days against Weather Dashboard+'s weekly. Weather Dashboard+'s advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
