Setting for open at the current time

So I think it’s worth noting the before we added radar the opening on the app was working fine. No one mentioned anything. In that case, if you paused the app and reopened it after minutes, it’ll show the last time it was set to. After longer period (hours), it’ll set the time to the current time.

When we added radar, it created havoc because we have to check for new data more often but only when the radar data is turned on. Adding this logic seems to have broken something else.

I don’t like adding extra settings. Thing should just work correctly. So let’s fix the bug instead.

Here is what I propose:

  • if you pause the app and return within 10 minutes, it’ll keep the last time you viewed the app.
  • if you pause the app and return after 10 minutes, it’ll go to the most recent radar image if radar is on.
  • else it’ll go to the current time.

I think this is a good start.

Cheers, Duane.
