Vanecast is a weather app that never asks for your location. Most weather apps open with a Location Services prompt. Vanecast opens with a text field. You type a ZIP code or a city name, and that is the only location detail the app ever uses. It does not link CoreLocation at all, so there is no prompt to decline and nothing to turn off later. Everything comes from Open-Meteo, a free and open weather service. No account, no sign-in, no tracking, no ads. WHAT YOU SEE - The current temperature and condition, with feels like - Humidity, wind speed, and wind direction - The UV index with its exposure band, from Low through Extreme - Sunrise and sunset for the city you are viewing, in that city's own time zone - An hourly forecast for the next 24 hours - A nine day forecast with the high, the low, and the chance of rain - The moon phase, named and shown at all times - A weather key that explains every forecast icon and colour - Fahrenheit or Celsius, switched from the toolbar SAVED CITIES Keep up to five places and tap between them. Star one as your default and Vanecast opens on it every time. Pull down to refresh whenever you want a fresh reading. PRIVACY Vanecast stores your saved cities and your degree preference on your device. It collects nothing, tracks nothing, and sends nothing anywhere except the weather request itself. Vanecast is also available for Mac.
