Is there anyway of simplifying the weather app on the watch now? Now I click my widget and get a single numer.. :confused: then to get to dial with more than a number I have to crown scroll and then tap through a myriad overly complicated screens just too see if it's going to rain.

I don't even know what a dew point is let alone why it's 15 deg!!!!

You can tap the icon in the top right corner and select which screen you want rather than tap through all of them. Still not great, but...

I hate that tapping a weather complication brings up that specific measurement instead of the summary. I'm tapping the temperature because I want to see more data not the same data bigger.

In the Weather app, you can swipe left or right to switch sections, but they both go to the next section. I would have thought swiping left to right would go back, and the other direction goes forward. No thx, I’ll just use the top right menu, I guess.

Reminds me of the tv remote in Toy Story 2 (?) where they miss the tv channel and have to keep tapping forward until the station comes around again.

Have you noticed that when you are drinking a cold beverage on a humid day, the outside of the mug (or the can/bottle/glass/whatever) becomes wet and covered with water droplets? Well, the dew point is how cold the drink has to be for that to happen.
 
Yeah, multiple tiny screens is not ideal, but in a pinch it’s all there if you need it. Luckily, I really like the Weather app on iPad now, so I’m saving my deep dives into weather for the iPad and just sticking to Watch complications.
