I love the app, it’s awesome and I use it all the time. Except one suggestion? Please go back to a more recognizable screen icon. They recently changed from their large 13 on a blue icon, to tiny little text lost on a field of blue. It used to be really easy when I wake up (literally bleary eyed) in the morning to grab my phone, and pull up the days weather. But now among all the blue icons on my screen it’s hard to pick out. Hey, if you’re 18 I’m sure it’s fine, but not all of us are as young as we used to be, and neither are our eyes. Likewise maybe you can afford some big phone with a huge screen but not everyone can either. I just really think it’s silly too in any case to make an icon less distinguishable like with tiny text, and MORE nondescript! -when the whole point of an icon is to say -here I am! In brief terrific awesome app. But change the icon to something visible to everyone.
