## Description

OpenWindow helps you decide when the air outside is worth letting in.<br><br>Check whether it is a good time to open your windows or go outside using local weather and air-quality conditions. OpenWindow combines temperature, humidity, precipitation, wind, visibility, UV, and air-quality data into clear, practical recommendations.<br><br>Instead of making you interpret every weather metric yourself, OpenWindow gives you simple guidance for two everyday questions:<br>  - Is it a good time to open the windows?<br>  - Is it a good time to go outside?<br><br>Features:<br>  - Current recommendations for windows and outdoor activity<br>  - Hourly outlooks so you can plan around better conditions<br>  - Weather and air-quality data powered by Open-Meteo<br>  - Current-location lookup with optional location permission<br>  - Manual location search if you prefer not to use device location<br>  - Saved default location for quick checks<br>  - Unit preferences for temperature, wind, visibility, and more<br>  - Light and dark mode support<br>  - No account required<br><br>OpenWindow is built for quick, low-friction decisions: checking the room before opening a window, planning a walk, timing errands, or seeing whether air quality makes staying inside the better call.<br><br>Location access is optional and used only to fetch local weather and air-quality data. You can always search for a location manually instead.
