Weather

How it works

Weather shows the weather now and the next days as widgets for the home screen, from Open-Meteo, which needs no account or key. Weather now shows the temperature, the condition and more to choose; Forecast shows the next days in a row or a list.

First choose a place: in the settings, under Weather, Place (type a name, then pick it from the places found). Only its coordinates are sent, and only while a weather widget is shown. Add the widgets by editing the home screen.

The weather is fetched at most as often as Update at most every says, and only while there is a network: it never switches Wi-Fi on by itself.

A plugin with code runs with full access to the reader. It can read everything on it, your passwords and other secrets included, and use the network. A faulty one can crash the reader; a hostile one can damage it for good. Install it only if you trust who made it, as you would a program on a computer.

Builds

It is built for the Xteink X4, Xteink X4 Pro and Xteink X4 Classic, made for PaperPaw 0.5. A build runs on every PaperPaw of the same plugin interface. When a release raises the interface, a reader on that release waits until the author makes a new build.

Its code, open to read

The store shows the source of every plugin with code and keeps a copy, and rebuilds each build from that source with the compiler its fingerprint names, to compare. The file served is always the one its author signed.
