How to configure the Weather and Stocks widgets in Notification Center

While its main purpose is to organize and provide you with alerts, Notification Center also contains widgets to provide additional, glance-able information. Currently, that includes the Weather and Stocks widgets on the iPhone and iPod touch (the iPad doesn't have built-in Weather or Stocks apps, so doesn't get them in Notification Center either). If the default content isn't what you want, you can easily change the weather and stock information shown in the widgets. If you don't need them, you can remove one or both, add them back later, or simply change their positions within Notification Center,

How to change the location shown in the Weather widget in Notification Center

By default, the Weather app is set to local weather. Since iOS knows roughly where you are (via cell towers, GPS, and Wi-Fi router mapping, depending on the device you're using), if you're in Rome, it knows to show you the weather for Rome. You can override this, however, and show weather information for any location you like.

First you need to turn off location services for the Weather app

  • Launch Settings from your Home screen.
  • Tap Location Services.iPhone settings panel
  • Toggle Weather to Off.

Once location based weather is off, Notification Center will show you the weather for whichever place is listed first in your Weather app. If it's not already the one you want, you can easily change it.

  • Launch the Weather app from your Home screen.
  • Tap the Info icon in the bottom right hand corner.
  • Tap the + button at the upper right and search for any location you wish to add..
  • Touch and hold the "gripper" icon on the right of the location you want shown in Notification Center and drag it to the top.

From now on, that's the weather you'll see in Notification Center. To change it back, simply turn location based weather back on in Settings.
