Pacheco vs Weather Dashboard+

ABOUT THE NAME In Venezuela, "Llegó Pacheco" — Pacheco has arrived — means the cold has come. The expression remembers Antonio Pacheco, a flower farmer who came down from Galipán, on the El Ávila hill, to sell his flowers in Caracas at the end of November. His arrival coincided with the start of the cold season, and the phrase stayed in the language. Weather data by Apple Weather.

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
