By using the `Shortcuts` app on your phone, you can send weather and calendar data to your watch. This works by sending a notification, which is read by the watch through ANCS. The watch then parses the notification for the data.
While you may write your own shortcuts if you prefer (for example, to get weather from a different source), two are provided:
The weather shortcut requires an OpenWeatherMap api key, which you can get for free from https://openweathermap.org/api. The shortcut will prompt you for this when you add it to your phone.
These shortcuts can also be automated to run periodically, for example every hour, using the `Automation` tab in the Shortcuts app.
The shortcuts will send a notification, which can be annoying. One potential workaround for this would be to create a focus mode, and have an automation:
- activate the focus mode (hiding notifications from the shortcut)
