How to Set a Default City for the Weather Application on iPhone

Are you wondering what the weather is in certain cities over and over, want to check these particular cities more quickly, and all you have is your iPhone/iPod touch handy? These devices have a way to add and set these cities as defaults. Follow the instructions in this article to find out how.
STEPS
METHOD 1 OF 2: USING IOS 7



1
OPEN THE WEATHER APP AND CLICK ON THE SMALL CIRCLE WITH A PLUS SIGN ON THE RIGHT SIDE.



2
TYPE IN YOUR PREFERRED LOCATION IN THE SEARCH BAR AND SELECT THE CORRECT OPTION.



3
TAP AND HOLD THE PREFERRED LOCATION UNTIL IT BECOMES SLIGHTLY TRANSPARENT AND MOVES WITH YOUR FINGER.



4
DRAG TO THE TOP OF THE LIST AND LET GO.
METHOD 2 OF 2: USING IOS 6 AND BEFORE



1
OPEN THE WEATHER APP.



2
TAP THE "I" ICON NEAR THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER OF YOUR SCREEN. This should display a list of all your default cities.



3
TAP THE "+" BUTTON, WHICH IS LOCATED NEAR THE TOP LEFT-HAND CORNER OF YOUR SCREEN.



4
USE THE ON-SCREEN KEYBOARD TO BEGIN TYPING THE CITY NAME AND STATE OR THE ZIP CODE TO THE CITY YOU\'D LIKE TO ADD. Tap the city you'd like to use.



5
LOCATE THE TRIPLE-BEAM BAR. The triple-beam bar will help move the city you'd like to use to the top of the many-cities list, to make it the default (if many are added).



6
CLICK AND DRAG THE TRIPLE-BEAM BAR OF THE CITY IN QUESTION FROM ITS ORIGINAL PLACEMENT TO THE TOP OF THE LIST. Tap "Done" to save.

TIPS
To delete a defaulted city, find the city's "subtraction" sign to the left of the city name. Tap this icon, then tap the "Delete" button that will then display.
On the main weather page, you might need to swipe your finger to the left until the cities bar stops moving (if you have multiple cities installed.)
