Needs Work

This was initially exactly what I was looking for, Indoor/Outdoor temp in the menubar, and details on all of the Netatmo station details, even graphs!

Along those terms, it does actually do a pretty good job, but here are the two issues I’m facing:

-Menubar icon constantly shows Outdoor temperature for both Indoor and Outdoor temp. Example: Displays “44°F / 44°F” (both outdoor temp), when it should display “44°F / 72°F”. Have contacted the developer about this weeks ago, no response. I’ve also had this issue with Atmobar V1, and purchased V2 hoping it would have been fixed in some way.

-For some reason the data just stops refreshing. Computer has been online and connected for hours, and I’m looking at the station details and data hasn’t been refreshed since 6PM last night (More than 12 hours ago). Quitting/Reopening the app will fix this issue temporarly.

I’ve experienced these two problems on two different macs, albiet the same Netatmo station/account.

---------------------------------------

Those are just the two issues that keeps this application form being useful. There are other improvements/suggestions that I would love to see incorporated:

-Currently, preferences are non existant.
-Refresh time is fixed to 10 minutes, would like to have the ability to customize this.
-Not seeing a way to choose what displays in menubar, would like the ability to change this to Temp/Humidity/Pressure, etc.
-Battery level of outdoor modules would be a nice addition.

---------------------------------------

With the two major issues aside, which to me keeps the application from being useful, when station data DOES refresh, the graphs are a really nice touch. It gives you a quick glance at whats been happening and lets you see changes in your environment. Giving it one star for that.
