Access weather app without using widget? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Is there any way to open the S4 weather app without using the weather widget?

Wasn't the app intended to be used as a widget? I dunno, I'm just asking.

Thanks for such amazing insight captain obvious. Was just a simple question to see if there was a way to change that. Guess xda would be useless because the phone was intended to be used as is. Just saying.

Weather widget

Removed the weather widget from my home screen.
When I put it back it is only 2 wide, not 4.
Any ideas why or how to fix?

Place the widget and then press,and hold until trash can appears, let go and it will give you the option to resize

I think you can resize it by long pressing the widget, releasing and then you should see a little resize indicator in the bottom right corner of the widget. Drag that to resize how you want.
EDIT: Beaten to the punch!
Brilliant. A nice little feature.

This seems like a good place to ask a quick question then, can you resize all or most widgets? Or just a few like the weather widget mentioned above?

What sucks though is the ics version of the calendar had a better widget. Not sure why they got rid of the month view..

I think that widget was a Motorola customization. The new widget is just like the one on the Nexus 7. I assume Motorola did away with the customization. I liked the ICS widget better too.

Which location setting is needed for the weather widget?

As the title says, which location setting needs to be turned on for the stock weather to work correctly and update when you go to a different location? As of now it says "current location service temporarily unavailable" when I refresh the widget.
I was having battery life problems, so I turned off every location based setting on the phone, but I want to at least turn the single one on that makes this widget work.
Thanks!

Sorry to keep bumping, but does anyone know which location setting to turn on to accomplish this?
Sent from my LG-D800 using xda premium
Pretty sure it needs the one main settings under location.

Clear style agenda?

Does anyone know of a clear styled agenda widget? Basically a nice simple one that shows maybe just today and tomorrow, but transparent background? Thanks

In the play store. Beautifully transparent!

I've used this in the past. Looks nice, compatible with a lot of stuff on your phone.

Wanted: weather app that comes in cyanogen...

I dont want to root my device. But want the weather app that is used in the Cyanogen ROM. Where can I find this?
Before you get burned, this is the wrong place for questions about apps. Use Chronus in the play store.
