GETA Weather Forecasting vs SkyLens

"This app is intended for entertainment purposes only and does not provide true weather forecasting functionality." This is a Japanese traditional weather forecasting and wish making. GETA is a kind of wooden sandal which most Japanese people were wearing until around 50 years or so. Children had been kicking GETA into the air and forecasting next day's weather by on which side it dropped, wishing it would be a fine day. In this App, you can experience the secret ritual of Japan without making your foot dirty.

SkyLens turns your iPhone into a pocket meteorologist. Point at the sky, tap the shutter, and SkyLens identifies the cloud overhead — then tells you what weather it predicts. Unlike apps that just dump a Latin name, SkyLens reads the sky. Every cloud species comes with a Weather Insight: a cirrus halo means a warm front and rain within 24 hours; a towering cumulonimbus warns of thunderstorms; fair-weather cumulus signals a stable, sunny day. Learn to forecast the weather the way sailors and farmers have for centuries — just by looking up.
