Hi all, after a month of beta testing Peek Weather https://indiegoodies.com/weather
on Testflight, I've done several iterations already and want to share with you today
First, why do we need another weather app? I built this for several reasons
Where I live in Oslo, the default Apple weather app does not give correct forecast and I have to rely on a local app to get forecast
I don't feel like any weather apps outside, either they are complicated and confusing. Their UI is plain and not clear, it takes time to tell whether an a number is degree or hour or day.
I want the app to look like we look at the sky. When we look outside, we see the sky, the sun, and when it's raining, we see rain. At night, we see night sky. I always wish a weather app to look just like that
So I'm happy to build Peek Weather with scrollable weather forecast, a handy widget, the ability to pick precise location on map, plenty weather effect, quotes for the hour and some easter eggs in the app 🥚 if you can find it
