I like how the HTC app allows you to use the lock screen for displaying weather. Has anyone found a weather app has that functionality for other phones (Samsung, Nokia, etc)?

Looking for the same thing.
They should definitely add lock screen support on the Nokia Weather app. I saw it in the review, but I don't see it on my Lumia 920. I'm pretty sure it was a Lumia 920 that they used on the CNET review.
I have the HTC app and in the weather submenu ive chosen my location but it wont show up in the lock screen. How do i enable this?
Look in your lock sscreen settings. I believe it's called 'HTC' under the background drop down.Quote:

I actually sent them an email today using the feedback link from within the app. If I get a response, I'll post it here.Quote:

You can follow the instructions here:
Add a weather forecast event to iCal | Macworld
to add weather feed to your hotmail calendar and then sync it with your phone.
Then weather info will appear in the lock screen as event...
(I know it told how to add to iCal. But it's almost the same to add to hotmail calendar)
I was hype, lol.Quote:

Yea Weather Flows lock screen weather works well. Gives me what I need in a weather app.
Just a shame the lock screen only stays "on" for a few seconds :straight:
accuweather provides a lot of info on the lockscreen, as well as changing your lockscreen background to the current weather forecast
I have the HTC 8x, the weather app is amazing, other phones you can use an app called weather flow, amazing in many ways.. Good luck !
FYI - The lockscreen's 'on' or 'timeout' is adjustable at Settings|Lockscreen|Screen times out after: 30 sec/1min/3min/5minQuote:

I keep going back to Accuweather. Great info, great LockScreen, and okay tile.
I just want Weatherflow to allow a subset of user defined images (i.e. combine Paper Shuffle and Weatherflow lockscreens)...
weatherflow for sure, it's lockscreen images are beautiful and updates to the time and weather of your area pretty quickly
Where is the option to use accuweather on the lock screen? I have the Nokia version but no Lockscreen option.Quote:
