It is possible that, without realizing it, you end up storing several applications of weather information in the terminal. All a waste of mobile resources if we take into account that Facebook already notifies you if it is going to rain. This is possible thanks to the integration of Weather.com information into the social network. Something that allows receive notifications and notices directly on the Facebook wall A very useful detail to know if you have to take your jacket or umbrella before leaving home.Especially if we take into account that we can do without other apps.
How to activate it
Weather.com and Facebook have been collaborating for some time Or, at least, the social network informed users with iPhones if there was a warning of rain. Now everyone who updates their Facebook app, both on Android and iOS, can benefit from this new feature.
Of course, you have to configure it first. A simple process that is carried out through the menu of the three stripes of the Facebook application. Here it is enough to scroll to the Applications section, where you have to look for Weather.
To use this function satisfactorily it is necessary to activate the GPS of the terminal. That is, to let Facebook know the exact location where the user is.Something that allows to show specific data about the skies and the weather forecast for that place With this, all the information is already displayed on the screen.
Warnings and notifications
Facebook doesn't turn into a weather app. In fact, your rain warning notifications appear on the wall,over the latest news. In this way, if there is a risk of rain or it is cold or too sunny, the user is made aware of it. But it doesn't do it invasively. And you can always expand this weather information by clicking on the notice.
An interesting feature is that, from the configuration screen, by clicking on the cogwheel, it is possible to set several locations. In this way can receive notices on the wall about other places of interest.
