About this app

Gradient Weather is a detailed, highly customizable weather app. The color theme changes with the weather, you get configurable alerts, animated weather effects, and a dashboard you can actually arrange the way you want.

šŸŽØ THEMES THAT CHANGE WITH THE WEATHER
The app doesn't have a single color scheme. On a sunny day the UI shifts to warm amber. During a storm it goes deep blue-gray with a lightning flash effect. A clear night shows a quiet starfield behind your temperature. Foggy mornings get soft, muted tones.

Beyond the automatic weather theme, you can set Material You (colors from your wallpaper), AMOLED true-black mode, a custom color, and font options including Lexend and OpenDyslexic for readability. Also, secret themes šŸ‘€.

šŸŒ¤ļø FORECAST
Current conditions, hourly forecast, and up to 7-day daily view. Tap any hour or day for a full breakdown.

šŸ”¬ LOCALIZED ACCURACY
The app includes a built-in accuracy engine that monitors how forecasts, and applies small corrections to bring temperatures and conditions closer to the truth. Results vary by location.

šŸ”” WEATHER ALERTS
Set up notifications for the things that matter to you:
• Frost and freezing temperatures
• UV index above your chosen threshold
• Pollen and hay fever levels, per allergen (grass, tree, weed)
• Air quality drops
• Rapid pressure changes
• Evening summary of tomorrow's forecast
• Official government weather warnings (Yellow, Amber, Red)
• Wardrobe Advisor: outfit suggestion for the day ahead (Beta)
• Imminent rain nowcast (available in supported regions)

Pick two alerts for free, or go unlimited with Premium.

šŸ“Š WEATHER CARDS
Toggle on the ones you want and rearrange them in any order:
• Rain bar chart with minute-level radar data
• Pollen and hay fever levels
• Sea conditions: wave height, period, direction, water temperature
• Sunrise and sunset arc with live sun position
• Wind compass, UV index, air quality, pressure sparkline, moon phase
and more

Some cards are region-specific and hidden when data isn't available.

šŸŒ§ļø WEATHER EFFECTS
Rain falls on screen. Snow drifts. Clouds roll across the forecast screen. During thunderstorms the screen flashes and your phone vibrates on each lightning strike. On a clear night, a starfield fades in behind the temperature. All effects fade out as you scroll down and there’s also the option to switch these off if you prefer.

šŸ—ŗļø MAP AND EMOJI WEATHER REPORTS
The map shows live weather across your area: weather icons at each location, precipitation layers, emoji reports from people nearby, and readings from public weather stations.
Get a push notification when someone spots rain, snow, or a rainbow close to you.
Station data includes automatic bias correction when local readings disagree with the forecast.

šŸ“± WIDGETS
Two widgets for your home screen:
• Small widget: weather icon and temperature. Clean and minimal.
• Large widget: current conditions plus an hourly forecast strip. Resize it to also show the weekly forecast below.
Both widgets support color themes and the small widget supports multiple Material 3 shapes.

definitely a beautiful lamp and well designed! it has two trackers which are based on in-app payments so I consider that okay. my only issue with the app is the paid version is far out of touch. in a world of so many free weather apps and each phone OS coming with their own weather app it's hard to swallow paying $55 for a weather app it's never going to happen for me. I would never do subscription! so nice app, no thanks.

Thank you for your review, we really appreciate it! Glad you're enjoying the design. 🐸 We appreciate the feedback on pricing too. Gradient Weather is free to use, with optional Premium features that help cover weather data and development costs while keeping the core experience free for everyone.

good, but still needs some work. the UI is absolutely stunning and one of the best I've seen, but definitely needs a persistent notification for current weather, I'm also not consistently getting weather pattern notifications for heat and rain once I've enabled them (I'm getting the alerts on other weather apps). Great potential for the app though. excited to see how it gets updated over time.

This app is so amazing! I love how it has so many theming options (though I do wish that at least the font was unlocked... I do know that you have to make money somehow though!) It would be nice to have access to more notifications, and to have a real time radar. Maybe have different tiers of membership that has different features? Thank you so much for this amazing app!!!
