## What is WeatherHop?

Combine the photos on your phone with a full hourly and 7-day forecast for each photo location.  WeatherHop is the best weather app for people that love their photos.  

WeatherHop is a fully featured weather app designed to become the app for your daily weather forecasts, but personalized to you by using your own photos and a forecast accurate down to the minute at your exact location (not just your city or town).  You will see photos you've taken from the locations you are checking the weather for, not stock photography or only boring weather data.  

The magazine Popular Photography says WeatherHop "combines two things we don't usually think of as being related: weather and personal photos...While photographs don't necessarily play a practical role in checking the weather, it is a fun and creative way to incorporate images into an everyday habit..."

WeatherHop's forecast data is powered by Apple WeatherKit.  They use state-of-the-art technology to predict when it will rain or snow, down to the minute, at your exact location.

### 5/5 — Wonderful way to personalize an everyday task

*2022-10-29*

It’s hard to imagine creative approaches to the everyday routine of checking the weather but this app does just that while adding an extra dose of meaning to the task. WeatherHop connects and suggests locations for weather reports from places you’ve taken photos—I opened it up to remember trips I had long forgotten. You’re not just connected to the past but also the present—how is the weather right now in Seoul? Lovely app.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2017-09-20*

Great app, love seeing pics I've taken in the past along with the current weather forecast. Works super well and accurate for the weather forecast too.

### 5/5 — Great use of my photos

*2017-09-04*

Love getting a forecast and a new photo right to my lock screen each morning

### 5/5 — Why have all the pics in your library and never look at them?

*2016-08-25*

What a great idea for an app! I always check weather on my phone and see stock photos. This app delivers geo tagged pics from my library for my locations. Attractive design and simple to use.

### 5/5 — See your photos

*2016-08-24*

Love this idea and it works well from the first load. Scroll down through photos from different cities that you've visited. Very cool!
