Suggestion: Add city name. I know you don't want to clutter the interface, thus the name minimalist weather, but it makes me nervous to look at a screen and hope it has determined my location accurately. It makes me skeptical about the results too, as I didn't get any notifications on OS X Lion saying "minimalistweather.com wants to use your location". Also it displayed a gorgeous "25 degrees", while OS X's weather widget says "29 degrees"...

#42I don't get it. My Android has a widget on my homepage that shows me the current weather for my location, updated live. Is that all this is doing?

Yes but less. You see iOS does not have desktop widgets like android/windows, so this is a creative way to show the updates within the app icon.
We can of course hope it would change in iOS 7... Along with a better inter-app communication system.

Thank you for you feedback. I'll add that feature along with other ones. Show and correct city and change from C to F.
(as a side note: for the benefit of others, ˚ is typed with option-k. I had to try a million different combination until I found it).

#48The really, really, really poor man's widget. What's the point if it's showing me stale data? If it's been so long that I can't remember the temperature, I'm going to have to launch the app anyway.

If you look at the screenshot of the home screen, you'll notice that this is not an Android device and thus has no Android widgets. So, no, that's not "all this is doing".
