No widgets, no dark mode icons, no meaningful improvement in years, etc. Also he doesn’t communicate with any of his users. It’s a real shame too since it’s a great app. Time to find a new weather app. ### 1/5 — No widget option for IOS 18 *2024-10-01, version 1.4.13* I used to really enjoy this app. You cannot add this app as a widget anymore. I’ve reached out for support but haven’t received a response! ### 3/5 — Need improvements. *2024-09-29, version 1.4.13* Beautifully designed widget would be nice. ### 5/5 — Still My Favorite *2024-08-30, version 1.4.13* After all these years using and loving this weather app, I’m happy to say, it’s still my favorite! I buy the in-app purchase more to support the developer than for the additional features, which is a serious endorsement because I’ve rarely ever done that. Simple, clean, easy to read, with everything I want and nothing I don’t. Thanks! ### 5/5 — Extremely needs suiting! *2024-07-06, version 1.4.13* I’ve been a Partly Sunny user for years now, and while there’s been some quirky downtime (particularly around weather sources, if I recall correctly), Joe’s always been responsive via email/social media and gets an update up relatively quick. Once “Check The Weather” stopped working, Partly Sunny’s been my go-to. It’s not something I use during severe (midwest) storms, but day-to-day it’s the only one I actually like looking at, the only one that’s not grating to use, and it doesn’t insult my intelligence. (I *wish* this was a paid review, but I just like the app) ### 1/5 — Quit working *2024-07-05, version 1.4.11* Seems to be common problem with many. I used this app for years and loved it. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled but still won’t work. ### 1/5 — Feed still broken *2024-07-04, version 1.4.11* Is there a plan to fix this app? ### 1/5 — Weather feed is broken *2024-07-02, version 1.4.11* As others have mentioned this used to be the best weather app but now it shows “there was an error getting the forecast” for all locations. It’s been like this for well over a week with no updates from the dev. I guess it’s time to move on 😟. ## Frequently asked questions about Partly Sunny ### What does Partly Sunny do?

Even when the weather isn’t enjoyable, I hope you enjoy checking the weather with Partly Sunny! – Joe ### 1.4.11 — 2023-05-10 This update has some radar-map additions & changes and some bug fixes. Radar Changes Partly Sunny’s radar-data provider made some changes that resulted in the map layers for severe-weather warnings, storm cells, and advisories not fully loading their data. Unfortunately I had to remove the advisories layer as a result. The warnings and storm-cells layers, though, are still available but are updated to use slightly different data. Radar Additions There are also some new map layers. For US locations, there’s a new radar & clouds layer. For locations in Europe, the radar & warnings layer is now also available. And for locations worldwide, there’s a new temperatures layer and wind-speeds layer. Also, when the warnings layer is selected, there’s a new button in the radar view to swap the layer positions. By default, precipitation radar is on top of the warnings layer, but to better see the warnings that may be covered by the radar layer, you can swap the layers so warnings are on top. Apple Weather Fix The issue where Apple Weather forecasts might not display properly for some users should be fixed. Turns out working with dates, times, and time zones is… hard. Hahaha.

Partly Sunny is now powered by Apple Weather—which brings back hourly graphs for each day this week and yesterday’s weather! Apple Weather Forecasts in Partly Sunny are now powered by Apple Weather, Apple’s replacement for Dark Sky. For Partly Sunny Club members, if you prefer OpenWeather forecasts, you can change data providers in Settings. Hourly Graphs When Apple Weather is selected as the data source, hourly graphs are back in Day View. So when you select a day in Week View, forecast details for the day once again include an hourly graph of temperatures & conditions. (And as a reminder, you can tap anywhere on the graph to change the data point, and you can touch & hold to show details for the hour and then drag left & right to see other hours.) Yesterday’s Weather Also when Apple Weather is selected, Week View can once again show yesterday for quick comparisons. Enable it in Settings > Daily Forecasts. (Partly Sunny Club required.) Day View In Day View, new back & forward buttons show the previous & next days without having to go back to Week View to select a new day. You can also swipe left & right to change days and use the Left Arrow & Right Arrow keys on an external keyboard. Text Summaries Text summaries for today & tomorrow are expanded and a little more specific in some cases. For example, they now support summaries like “Partly sunny today and tomorrow, and light rain tomorrow night.” and “Partly sunny today, and light rain tonight and tomorrow morning.” ————— Thank you for using and supporting Partly Sunny!
