Weather Light is two apps in one: the weather where you are, and a flashlight. Tap the sun and the flashlight turns on. Drag a cloud over the sun and the light strobes. That is the trick people loved in 2013, and it is still here. THE WEATHER Weather from Apple Weather, the same data as the built-in Weather app: the temperature now, how it feels, the next 24 hours, the next 10 days, wind, humidity, pressure, UV, sunrise and sunset. Severe weather alerts from your local authority, when there are any. RAIN RADAR Where it is raining right now and where it will in the next two hours, as a loop over the map around you. WIDGET AND LOCK SCREEN A home screen widget with the temperature and the next hours, and, if you want it, the weather on the lock screen and in the Dynamic Island. THE FLASHLIGHT The camera flash, one tap away, in an app you open anyway. It turns off when you leave the app so it never drains the battery by accident. IN YOUR LANGUAGE 26 languages, Celsius or Fahrenheit, light or dark. FREE A small ad pays for the app. The one-time purchase from 2013 that removes it still works, and restores on any of your devices. Your location is used only to fetch the weather and is never stored on any server of the app. Weather data: Apple Weather. Radar: RainViewer.
