Abstract

In this twelfth chapter of the Smartwatch Design Fundamentals book, let’s get into designing what are called “Weather” watch faces which utilize an open-source weather API, called “OpenWeatherMap” which was a recent feature added in V.2.0. There are some complaints from developers online regarding how the OpenWeatherMap API works and support for it in combination with health-related features provided by the S-Health (Samsung Health) Applications.
