About

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.
