About

Dot °

A tiny dot-matrix pet lives in your weather app. You don't feed it. It just watches the sky, and tells you. Dot is a weather app that answers one question: what do I actually need to do about today? Not sixteen numbers. One pet, one temperature, and the one thing worth knowing. — WHAT DOT TELLS YOU — UV peaks at 2 PM. Rain starts in 40 minutes. It's 9° colder than yesterday. Dot reads the forecast and surfaces only what changes your day — an umbrella, a coat, water, sunscreen. When there's nothing to worry about, Dot says nothing. That's the point. — THE PET — The pet's mood is the weather. Sun, rain, storm, snow, fog, wind — ten states, each drawn as a 16×16 dot-matrix animation. It blinks. It shivers when it's cold. It squints in bright sun. It is not a game. There is no score, no streak, no notification begging you to come back. — DESIGNED TO DISAPPEAR — Monochrome. No gradients, no glossy cards, no bouncing animations. Red appears only when something actually needs your attention. Built to be read in half a second and put away. — HOME SCREEN WIDGET — The pet, the temperature, and the one thing to bring. It shares a single cache with the app, so it doesn't drain your battery re-fetching the same forecast. — DETAILS — • Powered by Apple WeatherKit • °C or °F, 12- or 24-hour, follows your region automatically • Eight languages • Dark, light, or automatic • Search any city worldwide Dot doesn't have an account. It doesn't sell your location. It shows you the weather, and gets out of the way.
