Include Inter-location to Bring my Umbrella app

in #utopian-io5 years ago

BringMyUmbrella is a free and open source app, that works as a weather forecaster. The app is simple and very easy to use. The app has been on my device for the past few months, but I haven't been using the app regularly. I started using it when the raining season starts a few weeks ago.

This is how the app works; when the app is opened, it will launch a page showing if rain will fall that day or not. If it will be raining, it will show - Go out with your Umbrella it will be raining. If otherwise, ''You umbrella can rest at home today, you are safe''.
That is basically how the app works. There is no how one can know if there will be rain in another location apart from where you are.
My suggestion is about the addition of a feature that will allow users to know if the situation of the weather from one location to the other. It may be within the same state/vicinity or between state to state. The feature will allow users that are travelling or moving from one place to another to know if it will rain or not.

The Idea:

Inter-location

I created mockups that show where the feature could be added to. The setting page will be the best place, users will be able to input in the location they are heading to and the app will display the result has it does in the mockup below.

There are people that do open truck businesses. Some people transport goods that water can destroy or damage. A feature like this could be a solution to people like that. It will be useful to every user, irrespective of what business or where they are going. I have seen the ability of the app. It has been working perfectly ever since I have been using it. I just hope it doesn't miss one day :P

Hello @dareweath!
Thank you for contributing.
So basically you want the application to have a live location feature so that it can detect the location and show the weather accordingly!
The PO wants to keep this application simple however the feature you are suggesting might have some positive impact on the usability of the application.
I would advise you to create an issue on GitHub first before posting on utopian. And although it is not necessary but the contribution looks much better if you follow the predefined template.
