Description
Simple Weather Widget is simply the best weather widget in the App Store.  It provides a highly customizable, very compact, beautifully designed widget in the "Today" view on your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad, which displays the current weather (and, optionally, a forecast) for your location. Finally a weather widget with NO WASTED SPACE on your Today screen!

A simple, clean, compact design with lots of options so you see as much or as little information as you want. Available information:

Current Weather:
   - Temperature
   - Clouds/Precipitation
   - Relative humidity or dew point
   - Today's high/low temperatures
   - Wind speed and direction
   - Sunrise/sunset time
   - Severe weather alerts (premium users only)
   - "Feels like" temperature (premium users only)
   - UV Index (premium users only)

Forecast:
   - Temperature (hourly & daily high/low)
   - Clouds/Precipitation
   - Precipitation likelihood (hourly & daily) (premium users only)
   - Wind speed (hourly) (premium users only)

As much or as little as you'd like of all that information, and it only takes up a tiny bit of your Today View screen space.

You can also change the colors, select from three icon styles, or add a background image.

The free version features high quality weather data for your area from OpenWeatherMap. With a "Premium" upgrade, the widget can access more detailed data ("feels like" temperature, UV index, forecasted precipitation likelihood etc.) powered by the Dark Sky weather data service (it's a paid service, which is why the Premium option costs a bit more). There's also an economical "Plus" option that simply removes the "free version" message and updates the forecast more frequently.

To add the widget to your Today view, once you've installed the app, just swipe down from the top of the screen, select the "Today" tab, and then find the "Edit" button at the bottom of the page.  Under "Do Not Include", you'll find an item called "Weather" with the app's icon.  Tap the little green (+) button next to it, and you're all set!

Developers no longer support

This app hasn’t been updated in 5 years, and as of 2023 no longer works on any of my apple devices. Leaving 1 star review with in hopes that anyone sorting by recent reviews will save time by not trying this app.

Everything I wanted... on the wrong screen

This is seriously the app I was looking for. Simple, detailed, perfect. Purchased the premium, set it all up, went looking to add the widget and realized it’s only for the Today screen. I was wanting a widget for my Home Screen that could be there around my icons all the time. Severely bummed.
