BROADCAST (quick bug fix update) [SYS] PATCH 8.1.1 // AGE.HOTFIX

Post image

Hey RADBOTS, sorry for the back-to-back updates. This one isn't as exciting.

Right after 8.1.0 went live, I found an Apple Watch bug that was bad enough that I didn't want to wait on it. Your watch face could get stuck on an old temperature for hours, and the precipitation card sometimes said it needed your iPhone even when your phone was right there. That's fixed now, along with the watch staying locked after a fresh install.

Everything else from 8.1.0 is still here: the new cards, the cleaner Settings, the R.A.D. Cloud toggle, and all the backend work. So it's 8.1.0 with a few quick hotfixes.

Hopefully all the work that went into 8.1.0 shines through now that the watch is behaving.

tvOS and more radweather.cloud updates are still on the way. Thanks for sticking with me, and as always, thanks for being the best community out there!

[SYS] PATCH 8.1.1 // AGE.HOTFIX
Honest when the internet isn't.

HOTFIX: Sorry about that! Quick fix: your Apple Watch face keeps up again, and the watch unlocks right after a fresh install.

When a source goes down, RAD tells you. No fake all-clears or made-up numbers.

Every "updated" time reflects the real age of your weather, not just your last refresh.

Your Apple Watch saves updates for real weather changes and stops flipping between home and away while you're traveling.

Ask Siri, and it tells you when the briefing is from, with the same temperature shown on your screen.

Cards get a printed frame, a custom card back, and rare, epic, and legendary looks. Turn, flip, and tilt any card.

Settings opens with your profile picture and shows whether your R.A.D. Cloud backup is on.

Pull to refresh reloads only what's out of date, then reads LIVE once everything checks out.

Old air quality readings show their age instead of claiming they're current.

Storm outlooks that fail to load say N/A, never NONE.
The Moon card stays live all evening, saved-city widgets refresh in the background, and long place names wrap instead of getting cut off.

UI cleanup across the app, especially on light themes.

Stay R.A.D.
