Weather Strip
This text describes an innovative weather app called Weather Strip, which offers a compact and easy-to-read view of the weather. The app provides beautiful widgets for the home screen, lock screen, and StandBy, offering more detailed information than other weather apps. Additionally, it features an interactive map that allows users to view forecasts for any location worldwide, including mountains, trails, and lakes. The app also displays extreme weather warnings directly on the forecast timeline, enabling users to see exactly when dangerous weather conditions are expected. Privacy is taken seriously, with no ads, tracking, or third-party analytics. The app only stores location data on the local device and uses approximate locations for weather forecasts. Weather Strip is also designed to be data-friendly, with background app refresh that learns user habits and the ability to view recent forecasts offline. The app offers a free trial period of two weeks, after which a minimal subscription price is required to continue using the service. It should be noted that not all features are available in all locations, and forecasts are provided by Foreca globally and the U.S. National Weather Service (NOAA NWS) in the United States. Weather Strip was designed by data visualization researcher Robin Stewart to help users enjoy the outdoors.
