Is today normal... or oddly not? Oddly shows you what your weather app won't: how your temperature right now compares to what's normal for this time of day. Not just "72°" — but "72°, +12° above normal. Oddly warm." One glance. That's all it takes. At 8am, Oddly knows 50° is normal. At 3pm, it knows that's cold. HOW ODD IS YOUR WEEK? Swipe up to see your 7-day forecast, not just highs and lows, but how each day compares to normal. Spot the oddly warm Friday or the weirdly cold Tuesday before it hits. THE TEMPERATURE CURVE Swipe down to see today's temperature plotted against the historical average, hour by hour, in real time. Press and hold to scrub through the day and see exactly when things got odd. ODDLY+ MEMBERS GET THE FULL WEEK Upgrade to see the 7-day temperature curve, a continuous, scrollable chart showing actual vs. average temperatures across the entire week. Weather condition icons, sunrise/sunset markers for every day, and precipitation changes when you scrub the graph. See the cold front coming before it hits. PHRASES THAT MATCH THE MOMENT Forget generic weather descriptions. Oddly rotates through fun, personality-driven phrases daily: • "Oddly warm" • "Temperature tantrum" • "What even?!" • "Perfectly normal" • "A bit crisp" ...and dozens more. Every day feels a little different. THREE THEMES TO MATCH YOUR STYLE • Band — A clean gauge that shows where today falls on the spectrum • Clean — Minimal and elegant, follows your system light/dark mode • Vivid — Bold animated gradients that shift with the temperature WIDGETS THAT KEEP UP Small and medium home screen widgets show your temperature and delta at a glance. No app needed — just look. WHAT'S FREE • Full app with temperature, delta, and daily phrases • 7-day forecast with daily deltas • Today's temperature curve with scrub • Home screen widgets with temperature and delta • Works everywhere, updates automatically ODDLY+ UNLOCKS • 7-day scrollable temperature curve with sunrise/sunset, weather icons, and precipitation changes when you scrub • Home city — your hometown weather, always one swipe away when traveling • Lock screen widgets (circular + rectangular) • Clean and Vivid themes • Multiple saved locations • Support indie development BUILT WITH CARE Oddly uses Apple WeatherKit for accurate, up-to-date data. Your location is used only to fetch local weather and is never stored or shared. Built by one person who just wanted to know if today was actually cold or if it just felt that way.
