Hello Paula. This is a good question. In fact, I usually use the built in 
weather app which comes with the phone if I am in the notification Center. 
However, the Fahrenheit app has the advantage that the app icon it's self on 
the home screen will tell you the temperature. This way you don't have to open 
it, and you don't have to go into the notification Center. I hope this helps.
