Meet Cloudman. Ask him the questions a forecast can't answer. Most weather apps hand you a grid of numbers and leave the thinking to you. Cloudman does the thinking. He reads the forecast for where you are and dresses for it — one glance at what he's wearing and you know: tee, hoodie, puffy, parka, raincoat. Then you ask him the rest. ASK, DON'T SCROLL "What should I wear?" "Need a coat tonight?" "Best beach day this week?" He answers in a sentence, in plain words. When you ask, the day folds into his pocket and the conversation has the screen; tap him to come home. HE DRESSES FOR IT Cloudman changes outfits when you should. His verdict for the day is one line, and he'll say when it flips — tee till four, hoodie for the ride home. Tap him and he texts you the day in three lines, the third one about what you told him matters. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN The widget wears the weather. The temperature, where the day goes, and Cloudman dressed for it — no app to open. Add it from Settings; he'll walk you through it. THE BEST DAY FOR IT Beach, hike, the weekend — ask which day and he scores the week and names the one, with the hour. ANYWHERE "Check weather in Monterey" hands you a card for there. "Heading to Tahoe Friday" gets a trip brief with the clock at both ends. THE DAY, HONESTLY Tap the Today card: the day as columns you can scrub, feels-like, wind and gusts, rain by the hour, UV, sunrise and sunset. The week in one row a day, with what stands out. WHERE THE SUN IS The Nearby map shows the readings around you, hour by hour, so on a foggy morning you can see which neighbourhood is warm — tap a place to look closer. HE LEARNS YOUR MORNINGS Tell him what matters — the run, the school gate, Friday's bike — and he brings it up when the weather does. FRIDAYS, A POEM Once a week he writes your neighbourhood three lines — about the fog on the hill, the bus that sighs, the sun by one — never a temperature. Tap the card, watch him write, share the page. °F OR °C Every degree in the unit you read. BUILT TO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT YOU No account, no sign-in, no ads, no tracking. Location is used only to fetch your forecast and is never stored. Everything the app remembers sits under a random identifier you can erase in one tap from Settings. Weather data by Apple Weather. Replies in chat are generated by AI and can be wrong — check the sky before you trust the coat.
