Yep, it has a widget for that.

You mean, homescreen widget?

No in app view for that?

I just installed the app and it looks pretty cool, but can't find forecast graphs for multiple locations on the same screen anywhere.

If it's just about current weather, the locations view kind of does this. Otherwise, I'd be super interested to hear which app you'd seen that in before, sounds like an interesting feature
