Cloudo is weather that thinks ahead. Traditional weather apps give you numbers. Cloudo helps you understand what those numbers actually mean for your day. Instead of simply showing temperature, rain probability, wind and UV, Cloudo turns forecast data into useful, human-friendly guidance. Know when rain may start, whether you should bring an umbrella, how the temperature will change, what conditions may feel like outside and what you may want to prepare before leaving home. WEATHER INTELLIGENCE Cloudo analyzes changing weather conditions and highlights what deserves your attention. See important shifts in rain, temperature, wind, UV and other conditions without digging through endless charts. YOUR WEATHER ASSISTANT Ask what matters to you and explore weather through practical insights. Cloudo is designed around decisions, not just measurements. TODAY AT A GLANCE Get a clear view of the day ahead with hourly conditions and useful highlights. Quickly understand what is changing and when. SMART RAIN INSIGHTS A rain percentage alone doesn’t tell the whole story. Cloudo helps you understand when rain is expected, how conditions may change and when carrying an umbrella could make sense. UV & SUN GUIDANCE See UV conditions throughout the day and understand when sun protection deserves more attention. OUTFIT SUGGESTIONS Weather affects what you wear. Cloudo uses temperature, feels-like conditions, wind and other forecast information to provide useful clothing suggestions for different parts of your day. WIND, HEAT & MORE Explore wind, pressure, temperature trends and additional weather details when you want to go deeper. PLACES Keep track of weather in the locations that matter to you. Compare conditions and stay prepared for different places. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE Cloudo isn’t designed to make weather more complicated. It is designed to make weather easier to use. Whether you’re deciding what to wear, wondering if you need an umbrella, planning a walk, preparing for strong sun or simply checking the day ahead, Cloudo helps turn forecast data into practical information. Less weather data to decode. More useful answers. Meet Cloudo — your weather intelligence assistant. TERMS AND CONDITIONS (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
