Moreover, and more importantly, the Accuweather app has also significantly revamped its forecast page. The page now shows a graph view by default, showing temperature changes throughout the day in a horizontally scrollable list showing the current, high, and low temperatures at the bottom of the screen.

Additional tabs at the top of the page allow users to see the same hourly breakdown of precipitation, air quality, humidity, UV index, wind, dew point, cloud cover, and visibility. The previous list view is still available with a toggle switch at the top of the page, but there is no default list view option.

Finally, the update also introduced a new “Watch Live” tab in the bottom bar, which shows live weather videos from Accuweather as well as other brief videos about weather events. Both of these changes are live on both Android and iOS devices.
