Most weather apps show fog forecasts, but you have to go looking. If fog matters for your work or hobby, checking manually gets old fast. Misty watches your locations and pings you when fog is coming. Set it and forget it. Weather data provided by Open-Meteo.

STORMS. QUAKES. FIRES. FLOODS. Herebeat watches the places you care about and shows you what changed, straight from the official sources that issue it. SEE YOUR PLACE BEFORE YOU SUBSCRIBE Spin the 3D globe and land on your town. Herebeat shows what's covered there and what isn't, plus what's happening right now: an official alert, air quality, rain in the next hour, the nearest earthquake. Add home, work and family, set up a route, and try the app before you decide. WATCH YOUR OTHER ADDRESS Mark a second home, rental or family home as a property. Its alerts say "Your property", so you never mix it up with where you are, and it gets a storm checklist for that address, with a spot for who checks on it. OFFICIAL, NOT RUMORS Every alert says who issued it and when: the National Weather Service, the Japan Meteorological Agency, USGS, NOAA river gauges, the National Hurricane Center, the Storm Prediction Center, interagency wildfire data, GDACS, MeteoAlarm and national weather services around the world. WHAT YOU GET - Warnings, watches and advisories for your places - Hurricane forecast cones, tracks and coastal warnings from NOAA - Severe storm outlooks for the next three days (US) - Earthquakes worldwide, with magnitude and distance from you - Wildfires, storm reports and river levels nearby - Air quality from official monitors, with a five-day forecast in the US - NOAA radar on the map (US) - Today's weather on a sky that moves with the conditions, plus the next 10 days and rain in the next hour - Next 24 hours charts, UV index through the day and the moon - Routes: reported closures near the roads you use, where agencies publish road data - Home and Lock Screen widgets: status, weather, air quality and your places - Follow a warning on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island until it ends - Apple Watch app and complications - Calm notifications: bundled updates, a daily limit, an "only urgent" option and quiet hours - Alerts read aloud in plain words - 7 languages, your units, your time format PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No tracking. Your places stay on your iPhone unless you turn on notifications for them. SUBSCRIPTION Herebeat requires a subscription.
