Rainy Check has one job: a single heads-up on mornings it's going to rain where you are. See it, grab a coat, get on with your day. No feed to scroll. No account. No unnecessary notifications. One heads-up at 8:00 on rainy mornings, and nothing at all on dry ones. WHAT YOU GET - One notification a day, only when rain is likely - A cloud on the home screen that sours as the rain gets heavier - "Look ahead" for the next rainy day on the way - A widget with today's outlook, in two sizes - Weather from Apple Weather PRIVACY Rainy Check asks for your rough location once and keeps it approximate. It's used only to look up your local forecast. Nothing is stored on a server, nothing is shared, and there's no tracking or sign-in. That's the whole app.
