A simple Weather App using Realm

by iOS Example

WeatherApp

A simple app to preview 16 day forecast and:

  • Show a list of weather forecast
  • Shows weather details.
  • Shows settings view to change from Centigrade to Fahrenheit and vice versa.
  • Offline/Local storage using Realm Framework.
  • Local Notifications to show weather alert in each morning and night.

I am using the 16 Day Weather Forecast of this API.
