What's New in 4.4 - A new black-and-white look inspired by gianpaolofontani.net: newspaper-style paper, thin rules and serif type, on iPhone, Apple Watch and the widget. - A new black-and-white app icon.

• Smoother sun and cloud animations, with no more cut-off edges. • Animations now restart correctly when you return to the app. • New optional "Always" location access: the app can refresh the weather when you move to a new place, so your temperature and rain alerts are based on where you are. • Stability and performance improvements.

This build introduces configurable weather alert notifications, a new Settings panel, manual city/location search, a new Home Screen widget, a new Apple Watch companion app, and upgraded weather visuals with realistic animations (sun glow/rays, rain, snow, cloud drift, storm flash). Please test: • Manual city/location search: search for a city, select a result, and verify the weather updates for the selected location • Verify city search handles invalid or unavailable locations correctly • Verify the selected city and weather data remain consistent after refreshing or reopening the app • Temperature alerts (low and high thresholds) • Feels-like temperature display: verify “Feels like” appears under the main temperature (orange), above Humidity, and matches the apparent temperature value from WeatherKit • Rain alerts based on minute forecast or hourly fallback • Customizable thresholds and cooldown interval • Toggle enable/disable for temperature and rain alerts • Automatic refresh behavior (1-minute interval and foreground return) • Notification permission flow and correct alert delivery • Alert cooldown behavior: confirm alerts trigger only when thresholds are crossed and do not repeat excessively • Main weather graphics: verify realistic condition effects render correctly (sun rays/glow, rain streaks/splash, snow drift, cloud drift, storm flash) and remain smooth during updates • Accessibility: with Reduce Motion enabled, confirm weather effects are reduced/tempered appropriately Widget (Home Screen): • Add the “GPF Weather System” widget (small/medium) and verify it displays city, condition icon, temperature, feels-like temperature (if enabled), and last updated time • After selecting a city manually, verify the widget displays the selected city and its latest weather data • Widget refresh: confirm the widget updates after opening the app and after a manual refresh, using the latest saved data (App Group) Apple Watch companion app: • Open the companion app and verify it displays city, condition icon, temperature, and last updated time • After selecting a city on iPhone, verify the Watch app receives and displays the selected location • Tap Refresh and confirm it requests an update from iPhone and updates promptly • If iPhone is not reachable, confirm the “refresh queued” status appears and the watch updates later when connectivity returns No login or account setup is required. Grant location and notification permissions when prompted.
