Solved

Weather Widget 🌞🌧️❄️🔥

Is it possible to integrate Jobber with a weather app?

On the dashboard, we were thinking a 7-day forecast could be visible.   Also, I thought a small temperature reading on the monthly calendar would be visible.

We also thought the weather for the day could be captured and saved as an internal note for the job.

    It would be a great idea I think.  For the technicians to see the 7 day forecast. We have comments sometimes "oh I wasn't aware that a snowstorm had come in". LOL

    Hey Jessica-2025​ I had the same thought. There is a chrome extension I made (if you use chrome) that does enable this on the desktop. The extension is called "Jobber++" and can be found here

      Thanks for creating this!!! Before installing, I noticed Chrome says the extension isn't trusted by Enhanced Safe Browsing and it requests browsing history access. Can you explain why that permission is needed? Is the source code available anywhere?

        Yes source code is at https://github.com/JoelFriedrich/jobber-plus-plus. It does use local storage on the browser just to remember what city you've entered, but it shouldn't be asking for access to browser "history" per se. I'll look into and let you know of any fixes that I find. In the meantime here is a the github contains the source code.

        Thanks for the feedback!
