Please Make the iPhone Weather Application Location Aware (opens in new tab)

+1 for changing the icon based on the primary location. I want this feature much more than location-awareness. (Jailbroken iPhone has icon-changing weather app)

The "Weather Icon" app from Cydia accomplishes this. There's a similar WinterBoard extension for the clock ("LiveClock"). Both work wonderfully.

(Edit: it changes based on the weather and the time, not based on geolocation.)

Move somewhere where it's never 73 and sunny. That way you'll never be confused.

I can't remember seeing a tweet linked as a HN story, but this sentence long domain names get a lot of publicity every now and again.

Successful strategies tend to get copied.

permanence, until the issue at hand is resolved?

I expect it was omitted just like copy and paste were omitted so they could get it right. But the squeaky wheel gets the oil so they haven't done anything about it.

Thats my guess for what it is worth :)

I'm pretty sure it shows Fahrenheit everywhere by default.

reproduces functionality of apple's products?

Unless you put your iPhone in a place where body heat can't warm it an an electronic thermometer is pretty useless. Most mountaineering watches (Suunto & Co) show the correct temp. only after 20 mins. or so. And that's without taking into account the heat the device itself produces, which may be non-negligible for the iPhone.
