Yet another update for Rainy Days, my weather radar application for Android! This update has a few new features and bugfixes.
First of all some display flickering that occured on the HTC Desire is now fixed. This also fixes any flickering you may have when running Froyo. I’ve also updated the app for Froyo (Android 2.2) so that you can choose to install the app on the sdcard.
For devices like the Nexus, Droid and HTC Desire I updated the menu icons so that they are of better quality. I also updated the application icon to make it more according to the Android icon design guidelines (judge for yourself if it worked out :))
Under settings there is now an option to access a few experimental features. One is smoothing of the animation that uses a fade effect. I got some mixed reactions on this from users so I decided to make it “experimental” and disable it by default. Let me know what you think! The other experimental setting disables the filtering of the radar images, which gets you more detail when you zoom in. The last option in the experimental section shows the status of the fallback mode that is in Rainy Days a few releases already, to help me diagnose problems more easily.
In the settings dialog you’ll also find an option to make a small donation by buying Rainy Days Donation. Donating is optional, Rainy Days is not cripled in any way if you don’t donate, I’m not forcing anything on you :)
As always there are many bugs fixed!
