Every photographer knows the frustration — you drove two hours, hiked to the overlook, and the light just… wasn't there. The conditions didn't cooperate. The moment didn't materialize. ScoutKit exists so that when you press the shutter, it matters. Built for photographers, ScoutKit delivers the planning intelligence you need to be in the right place at the right time — not by luck, but by design. Check cloud cover across multiple atmospheric layers, track golden hour and blue hour windows, monitor tide cycles, and evaluate sunrise or sunset conditions before you ever leave the house. When the sun goes down, keep planning — aurora forecasts, Milky Way windows, and transparency scoring tell you whether tonight is the night. Save the locations that matter to you. Monitor conditions throughout the day and hours leading up to your shoot. Show up knowing what the sky, the water, and the light are going to do. No account required. No login. Just open ScoutKit and start planning your next shoot. Key features include: • Multi-layer cloud analysis — See coverage across low, mid, and high atmospheric layers to judge whether a sunrise or sunset is worth the drive. • Regional cloud field visualization — Live satellite and forecast data showing how coverage moves and evolves hour by hour across your area. • Night Sky planning — Aurora forecasting, Milky Way shoot windows, and atmospheric transparency scoring for stargazing and astrophotography. • Marine & tide data for coastal shoots — Tides, significant wave height, swells, and currents. Time your sessions around water levels for tidal pools, sea stacks, reflections, and long exposures. • Golden hour, blue hour & astronomical timing — Know exactly when the light transitions happen at any location, any day of the year. • Location scouting & tagging — Save and organize the spots that matter to you for easy monitoring and future sessions. • Animated weather map overlays — Watch cloud banks, precipitation, and fronts move through your area so you know when conditions will clear or change. The best light isn't luck — it's planning. Payment for ScoutKit subscriptions will be charged to your Apple ID account upon purchase confirmation. All prices are exclusive of taxes.

Weather affects how you feel. Meteoropath helps you understand why. If you experience headaches, joint pain, fatigue, or mood changes when the weather shifts, you're not imagining it. Meteoropath tracks the atmospheric conditions that trigger these symptoms and gives you personalized guidance to manage them. REAL-TIME WEATHER METRICS THAT MATTER • Barometric Pressure — The primary trigger for weather-related symptoms. See both sea-level and surface pressure with trend indicators showing if pressure is rising, falling, or stable. • Humidity Tracking — Monitor humidity levels and see how much time you spend in the comfort zone (30–60%). High humidity affects respiratory conditions and joint pain. • Dew Point, Temperature & Wind — Additional metrics that affect how you feel, with educational explanations for each. 7-DAY TRENDS & ANALYSIS View pressure and humidity trends over 1, 3, or 7 days. Interactive charts show exactly when conditions changed, helping you connect symptoms to atmospheric patterns. Statistics cards display minimum, average, and maximum values for each period. PERSONALIZED HEALTH GUIDANCE This is what makes Meteoropath different. Based on current trends, you receive tailored guidance that includes: • What You Might Feel — Specific symptoms to expect based on current conditions • Watch For — Warning signs that indicate worsening symptoms • Recommendations — Practical advice for managing your day • What to Avoid — Activities and substances that compound weather sensitivity Guidance adapts to both the direction of change (rising/falling/stable) and its intensity (low/medium/high). A significant pressure drop gets different recommendations than a gradual one. DESIGNED FOR CLARITY Built with iOS 26's Liquid Glass design, Meteoropath presents complex weather data through an intuitive card-based interface. Dark mode is optimized with weather-reactive backgrounds that respond to current conditions. • Pull to refresh for instant updates • Search for any city worldwide • GPS-based current location • No account required — your location stays on your device WEATHER DATA YOU CAN TRUST Powered by Open-Meteo, a reliable weather service providing accurate forecast and historical data. Meteoropath fetches 7 days of historical weather to give you meaningful trend analysis. Stop wondering why you feel different when the weather changes. Meteoropath gives you the data and guidance to take control.
