How is that useless? We've been using such a device for a long time in society (replacing the mercury ones). Sure, nowadays with smarthome you can do it on a smartphone as well.
In my household we use a Honeywell for this (non-smart) and we have a smart device under it which shows the current weather and the forecast.
Furthermore, I bought an Enviro+ [1] plus a RPi Zero a while ago, but I still gotta implement/install it.

- MivLives 6y agoI've been looking into this recently. The one complaint I've seen about the Enviro is that the pi's CPU throws off the temperature.
- netmonk 6y agoIt was more a figure of Style. I already had electronic temperatur sensor in my room. But anyway soon after, i switched to an esp32 and a bme680 to monitor temp/pressure/air quality/humidity, uploading data to thingspeaks though wifi, and graphing those data there.
