What's New in Dark Sky Tech & Rain Radar

2.0.44

October 25, 2026

ROUTE WEATHER Don't just check the weather where you are, check it where you're going. Route Weather calculates your drive and shows the forecast for each point along the way, timed to when you'll actually pass through. Compare alternative routes, spot snow, ice, fog or thunderstorms before you leave, and get suggested breaks and overnight stops for car, caravan and truck trips. Times are always shown in each place's local time. LIGHTNING ALERTS Stay safe when storms build up. Hyperlocal Weather watches satellite lightning data around your location and notifies you when strikes come within the radius you choose, including how far away the storm is, which direction it's in, and when it has moved on. APPLE CARPLAY Your forecast, right on your car's display: current conditions, alerts, next-hour rain, hourly and daily forecasts with charts, and a live precipitation radar for the road ahead.

I like all the selections available to customize the app. However the option of how to report the rain inches option does not work. Have tried updating it several times but no luck.

Hi, Please update your app. The issue must be fixed. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Kind regards,

I had high hopes

I had Dark Sky a decade ago and it was fire! Always so accurate. I bought this despite the reviews and canceled the same day. “Clear for the hour” as it was pouring down rain. I even had the premium version. Bummer.

Response from developer

Thank you for giving the app a try, and we're sorry it didn't meet your expectations. Weather accuracy can occasionally vary depending on rapidly changing local conditions, but we're continuously improving our forecasts. We appreciate your feedback and hope you'll consider giving us another try in the future.

NOT SUPPORTED!

Just wasted $10

Used to be great

When I originally found this app and downloaded it, it was pinpoint accurate and absolutely amazing ever since Apple has gotten their hands on it. It can’t even tell me that it’s raining. When I’m standing in the rain, looking at the phone like right now.

Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry to hear about your experience. Weather conditions can sometimes change faster than forecast updates, but we're continuously improving accuracy. We appreciate your support and hope to earn back your trust.

Not working

I have the premium version that is supposed to allow rain sound updates but it doesn’t update or when it does it is a silent banner that I don’t see flash across my screen! How is this helpful??? Dark sky used to have a very unique alarm when severe weather was coming. This is silent even tho I have sounds turned on for it. Why can’t you keep the format and operating ability like Dark Sky was? Really disappointed in this.
