The popular Dark Sky weather app has been updated with a brand new layout, advanced notifications, a new weather reporter, speed improvements, UV Index, landscape mode on the iPad, and more. Dark Sky is available for the U.S., U.K., and Ireland.
Dark Sky can tell you at a glance exactly when it will rain (or snow) up to an hour in advance, so you’re free to walk the dog or run out to lunch and know you’ll stay dry. You can also explore the most beautiful weather animation you’ve ever seen, both forward in time or back.
What's New In This Version:
- Brand new layout, with a detailed hour-by-hour timeline for the next 24 hours (and for each of the next 7 days).
- Advanced Notifications: In addition to providing down-to-the-minute rain alerts for the next hour, you can now create custom alerts covering the next 24 hours for things like temperature, precipitation, snow accumulation, wind, and more. We'll also push severe weather alerts from the government weather service.
- A new weather reporter, so you can provide feedback on what exactly is happening out your window.
- iPhone 6 users can opt in to have their phones automatically provide us with pressure sensor data. This has the potential to dramatically improve our short-term forecasts in the future.
- Significant speed improvements when launching the app.
- UV Index. Because it's summer, and you need to protect your delicate skin.
- Landscape on the iPad (even my wife was complaining about that one).
You can purchase Dark Sky from the App Store for $3.99.
