Grantwetter

Grantwetter is the weather app that tells it like it is. Instead of “cloudy” you get the grant-o-meter from 0 to 10 – and a persona who grumbles along. And when it gets truly awful, the app cheers you up: with recipes, rain and fireplace sounds, a breathing exercise and a sticker album for weather survived. WEATHER THAT GETS YOU • Grant-o-meter: temperature, rain, fog, wind, grey days and even Mondays in one number • Around 700 lines that match the time of day, the weather and the temperature – fresh insults at the weather every day • Today's high and low, sunrise and sunset at a glance • Forecast for 24 hours and 10 days – with a day overview: hourly rain, wind, UV and sunshine hours • UV index at a glance: from UV 6 your persona nags you about sunscreen, from UV 8 the grant goes up • Rain radar: when the rain starts, how hard and how long – to the minute, in Austria and Germany with radar data from GeoSphere Austria and the German Weather Service • Snow gets its own announcement and its own lines • Severe weather alerts • Schadenfreude radar: where is it even worse right now? • Sun countdown: when will the sun be back? COMFORT ME • Comfort push: on miserable days you get one line from your persona about the weather in the morning – a tap opens “Comfort me”. Nice weather? Nothing. • Comforts that match the weather: iced coffee in the heat, a blanket fort in the rain, mulled wine in the cold • Real rain and fireplace sounds and a breathing exercise • Poke the grumpy cloud and keep your poke streak: a smile a day, stickers at 3, 7, 30 and 100 days • Sticker album: a sticker for every rotten day you survived EVERYWHERE • iPhone Duo: everything at a glance when unfolded, half open like a book – weather on the left, forecast on the right • On iPad everything at a glance: today, 24 hours and 10 days with the day overview side by side • Home screen and lock screen widgets • Apple Watch app with complications • Three designs: Grant Brutal, Grumpy Cloud and Tabloid • In English, German and French – the lines written separately for each language GRANT PASS (OPTIONAL) Try it first: all designs and personas free for 7 days, no subscription. All designs and personas – Granny, the burnt-out coach, the drama queen and the clerk –, personal comfort written by AI, every comfort, the full sticker album, up to 5 places, your own time for the comfort push, the radar map and the rain alert push. Monthly or yearly; the price is shown before you buy. The subscription renews automatically and can be cancelled any time in your Apple ID settings. PRIVACY No ads, no tracking, no account.
