The text and icons are set to white or black, while the background can be among nine mellow colors. The background will adjust slightly to best contrast against the text color. Currently uses icons to display the weather.background will adjustIf you aren’t familiar with each icon you’ll need to hover over them to show an overlay. Thankfully, popups, transitions, and other animations are fast and smooth.

It lacks more detailed climate information, which would be very helpful in planning out your week.
