Plumicast turns the forecast into a quick, glanceable outfit plan. Open it once in the morning and you'll know what to wear, what to pack, and what the day actually feels like, without scrolling through a wall of weather data. WHAT TO WEAR, NOT JUST THE WEATHER Plumicast reads the forecast and tells you in plain language how the day will feel and how to dress for it. Layers, jacket, umbrella, sunscreen, accessories, all tailored to the conditions you're actually going out in. MEET PLUMI Plumi is a cloud mascot who dresses for the weather alongside you. Sun, rain, snow, wind, or a cold night, the scene matches what's actually happening outside so you feel the forecast the moment you open the app. MODES FOR HOW YOU LIVE Switch between Daily, Work, and Workout modes to get guidance tuned to the moment. Active mode nudges the perceived-temperature up so you don't overdress for an outdoor workout. TUNED TO HOW YOU FEEL Run hot or cold? Tell Plumicast once and every outfit recommendation adapts to your comfort. Averages don't dress you, you do. HOURLY AT A GLANCE See the hours ahead with temperature, precipitation, and wind, so you can pick the right moment to head out or take the dog for a walk. HOME-SCREEN WIDGET Pin Plumi and the day's outfit to your iOS home or lock screen. Small and medium sizes, updated in the background so the prep is already waiting for you when you pick up your phone. PLUMICAST PRO Pro unlocks home and lock-screen widgets and power-user features. Available as a monthly or yearly subscription. Terms of Use (EULA): https://plumicast.app/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://plumicast.app/privacy.html
