Thermometer 1.0.0.1

Sometimes, before leaving the house, many people take a quick peek at the weather app on their mobile device to see how hot or cold it is outside to make a last minute decision about what to wear or what accessories to take with them.

For those who do not need the whole package of forecasts and detailed current conditions, there is a neat app they can try onto their Windows Phone powered handset that has a really suggestive name: Thermometer.

Nice and simple front-end

The utility offers a relatively clean appearance, with a neatly designed temperature measuring instrument inside the main screen. Also, the information is displayed clearly and is very easy to read.

When displaying the current reading, the app uses a fun effect to raise or lower the red meter to the correct value. On the downside, there are some annoying advertisements shown at the bottom of the screen and they keep on changing.

Get the latest temperature value at a glance

Thermometer doesn't need any kind of configuration and it uses the location services to provide the exact temperature readings for your current position. Deactivating this from the "Settings" menu will render the app utterly useless, so you will have to keep this option active for the utility to work.

The data is put on display after a few seconds and during this time the application fetches the necessary information from the online source it uses. Perhaps the best thing about Thermometer is that it is able to bring quite accurate readings for the temperature in your location, so it seems fairly reliable from thins point of view.

The values are shown in both Celsius and Fahrenheit and the scale supports gradations ranging between -30 and 50, respectively -20 up to 120 degrees. The increments are of 10 units for centigrade and of 20 units for Fahrenheit, while the readings displayed with numbers in the upper part of the screen are more exact.
