Can I use Kelvin for temperature..

…. on the Weather App? Will you make it so? I like Celsius but being in the US makes it difficult; might as well use Kelvin in the anthropic space age too. Thanks.

iPhone SE, iOS 15

marint ~ It's not exactly what you want, but you can create a simple custom shortcut in Apple's Shortcuts app. The shortcut below shows just the current temperature in kelvins – but you can modify it to also display the forecast in kelvins...

...And here's how it's done:

No, you cannot. No one here in this user-to-user forum can make it so that you can. You can, however, let Apple know your thoughts here:

Thank you. I might try to do this later.

I got into a bit of a debate over Celsius and Fahrenheit. I like to use Celsius due to global system (SI) units and for more scientific reasons thus the interest in Kelvin; resolves both issues and gets me into space age feeling.
