Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
# Today Improvements
There are chart improvements for when the day tracked is the current day.
* Charts will now show the current measurement without you having to look it up. Remember that you can use a long press gesture on any chart to see more details about an hour.
# New Language
Please Don't Rain now supports Italian!
# Widget Improvements
* Widgets have been changed to prefer symbols instead of words when possible. Not only does this help when supporting languages that might be more verbose, but it also allows the statistics themselves to be larger sometimes because there is more room.
* The Countdown widget wasn't very useful once the tracked day became today. Instead of just displaying "now" or "today" it will show the current temperatures if space is available. This does not apply to the circular lock screen widget (because of space reasons).
* Some large widgets will show the current condition if there is room.
* When a small widget is focusing on today's temperatures it will now better adjust to scenarios where the temperature values are taking up more space (such as when the unit is included).
* Inline lock screen widgets will show the current temperature when space is available if the high and low temperatures were already being shown.
## Widget Accessibility
There were many accessibility improvements made to widgets.
* More things are intelligently grouped together.
* The basic widget had way too many individual items with VoiceOver because of how it was structured. Visually it will look exactly the same, but the underlying code was rewritten to operate better with VoiceOver.
* The ‘Next Hour’ and ‘Next and Last’ widgets did not do a good time of indicating when a date was in the future. It was only done in the hints, which would be confusing if the user had VoiceOver hints turned off.
* The VoiceOver text for the ‘Next and Last’ widget much more clearly indicates what state the widget is in (showing the next precipitation or last precipitation).
# Bug Fixes
Currently the weather service can reporting that there is some precipitation for the day when there actually isn’t, which produced some confusing output. Many changes were made to address this.
