Great app, with just a few suggestions. The app doesn't save the preference of clear or cloud cover upon startup; thus, would be great if it did, or just to have clear set as default. Also, the ability to send a notification of a index of 3 is good, but would even be better if it did it throughout the day in increments of 2 to keep you really updated; or a notification in status bar that updates every hour would be perfect !!🙂
