Save those "too hot days" and "too cold days" as an image and share them with your friends. Transparent Thermometers usually just show what temperature it is and what the humidity level is. However, by using the iPhones camera we were able to successfully create Transparent Image. You can show people images of what the weather looks like whether it be cold or hot! We recommend this app for the following types of people ・Those that want to boast to everyone how hot their hometown is ・Those that what to boast about how cold their hometown is ・Those that just want to share what temperature it is ・Those that want to save an image of the current temperature for their own log. Disclaimer The iPhone does not contain any sensory equipment to measure temperature. It uses Location Services to determine what the weather is for your area. Information is taken from Open Weather Map. The Transparent App series doesn't stop there! We also have thermometers, stopwatches, calculators, voice recorders, clocks, and more! Create your own folder and get them all!!

WhatToLayer

Features

WhatToLayer answers one question: what should I wear outside, right now, for what I'm about to do? It's not a typical weather app. Instead of "26°, 80% humidity, dew point 22°," WhatToLayer just says: "T-shirt. It'll feel muggy." Pick your activity, your place, and when you're heading out. You get one clear recommendation, with a plain-language reason why. • Activities that actually change what you wear i.e. walking, running, golf, cycling, motorcycle, winter sports and more • Frost to heat, wind chill or humidity, the comfort engine factors it all in • Now, later today, or a 3-day and 7-day outlook for trip planning • Air-quality alerts. Know when wildfire smoke or pollution means easing off outside • Adjust it to how you run (i.e. cold, average, or hot) • No sign-up. No tracking. We collect nothing. Dress for the weather with WhatToLayer.
