About this app

Made by the Google Design award-winning developer Third Culture Apps

🥇 Winner of Google Play's Best of 2019 “🛠 Everyday Essentials”

* * *

Appy Weather is the most personal weather app because it's been designed for humans by someone who actually checks the weather too. By summarising the weather in plain-spoken & user-friendly language via its one-of-a-kind Timeline screen, Appy Weather sets itself apart from all other weather apps — no more scrolling long lists to figure out the weather as it's now summarised for you in a few lines and makes checking the weather fast, easy and actually fun! That said, there are more conventional hourly & daily views if that's what you prefer.

Appy Weather's hyperlocal accurate forecasts are powered by AerisWeather, Dark Sky, OpenWeather and Foreca.

Ratings and reviews

I've been using the app for about 2 years now. When I first downloaded I had a few issues which I contacted the developer about and he was very responsive. My biggest issue is it's inconsistency with impending weather alerts. It's supposed to be pulling its data from Dark Sky but the weather alerts I receive about impending storms are hardly ever accurate. Half the time I receive a warning about snow or rain that's going to start in X minutes but they never occur. Decent app but needs some work.

One thing about this app bugs me. Let's say on a Tuesday the temperature will reach a high of 40 at 3pm but it was still 59 degrees for an hour at midnight before the cold front moves in. This app will say it's a high of 59 for the day on the 7 day forecast. That is misleading and can lead to an uncomfortable day because you brought a light jacket instead of the heavy one that you actually needed. Edit: thanks for the update! Looking forward to it

Fantastic interface and awesome widgets. Just what I was looking for. Thank you! EDIT: After using the app for a few weeks, I've found my new favorite feature = the notification options. The one I found most useful are the "Reports" which send you a notification with a quick summary of today's weather first thing in the morning, as well as tomorrow's weather right before you go to bed. Love these quick, simple, and easy to understand notifications that definitely get me ready for the day. Upgraded to Pro subscription to support developer.

What's new

* Widget layout optimisations to reduce possibility of text clipping
* Wrong sun/moon icon should no longer ever be incorrectly showing by default for Dark Sky users (a refresh previously fixed this) – I think I finally cracked this one after managing to reproduce this!
