At the moment when you search for a location online there are two issues that I notice,
1. Weather app doesn't check the local city list to see if the user entered city is available or not. This sort of defies the purpose of having a local city list then.
2. The weather app queries online after every letter typed by the user. However realistically on a mobile, it would be best to start querying the online API only after a few ms (500-750) after the user has stopped typing to reduce bandwidth usage and API usage metrics. This is something that the clock app and a few other core apps do.
This bug is about issue #2. |
