Apple’s ‘Weather’ App

Pre-loaded on every iPhone – just how good is it?

Accuracy:     High Accuracy (according to global reviews we could find). Data is drawn from The Weather Channel (An IBM Business) which incidentally
has its own app. 

Cost:           FREE

Features:     A simple to read

                        Current weather conditions

                        Hourly forecasts for the next 24 hrs

                        10-day forecast

                        Quick swipe to view saved locations

                        Click through to The Weather Company which has further detail, but is full of ads

Pros: Hourly updates. This is a separate computer than the usual BOM and other suspects, which can offer a new perspective on a change coming.

Cons:          No ability to get further detail. No probabilities of precipitation or winds.

Overall:        A simple, yet accurate app that can give a quick overview of conditions.
