Google dropped the menu icon and use the new design language like other Google apps do. In the account picker menu, you will see three options: Temperature units, Add to homescreen and Send feedback.
Currently it also has missing weather info, like precipitation and wind forecasts. Hopefully Google can address this issue as soon as possible.

Recently there had not been lots of dedicated news posted in the channel because I am preparing for something cool.
This project took me almost 3 days to finish. Not something I had frequently do, also not something I am expert in. Possibly could do for some other apps in the future, that will depend. One small step, one giant leap.
Stay tuned, releasing in a few minutes.
