You already know the forecast. You still don't know what to wear. Outfitcast answers that one question. It reads the day's weather for your city and gives you a single sentence — then the pieces behind it: what to wear, and what to take with you. TODAY One verdict, in plain language, with the items under it. Keep scrolling and "Why this" shows the numbers the advice came from — how the day will actually feel, the wind, the chance of rain — instead of a badge you have to interpret yourself. And if the evening will turn cold, it tells you in the morning: "Add a layer for tonight." THE DAY, THEN THE WEEK Temperature hour by hour, with the rain map beneath it. Seven days ahead, each with its own read, so Thursday is a decision you can make on Monday. ALERTS THAT ARRIVE Scheduled alerts at the times you pick, in the city's own time zone — not your phone's. They are sent as Time Sensitive, so a 7 a.m. alert is not swallowed by Sleep Focus. An alert that can be silenced is not worth setting. Alerts for the whole family: give an alert a person's name, and the notification says who it's for. Week shows one person at a time. And an empty Week suggests a ready-made morning alert you turn on with one tap. IT LEARNS HOW YOU FEEL THE COLD Now and then, Outfitcast asks how the day felt. Answer, and the advice shifts to you — some people run cold, some run warm. Free, for everyone. DUST Some days the temperature is fine and the air is not. Dust is read alongside the weather and changes the advice itself, not just a warning line at the bottom. WIDGETS Home Screen in three sizes, Lock Screen circular and rectangular. The verdict without opening anything. CITIES Add the places you live between and switch with one tap. ARABIC AND ENGLISH Fully translated — the app, the notifications, and the widget, right-to-left included. And the language is a row in the You tab, so you can read Outfitcast in Arabic on an English phone. PRIVACY No accounts. No sign-up. No tracking. No ads. Your location is used to fetch weather and is never linked to you — there are no accounts, so there is nothing to link it to. FREE, AND OUTFITCAST PRO Free: 3 saved cities and 2 scheduled alerts. Everything else above is free too — Today, the week, the rain map, dust, the widgets, learning how you feel the cold, and both languages. Outfitcast Pro raises the two limits: up to 10 saved cities, and up to 8 scheduled alerts, so every person in the family, and every morning, can have their own. Outfitcast Pro is an auto-renewing subscription: • $2.99 per month • $17.99 per year, with a 3-day free trial Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase.

ColdFront puts live aviation weather on a 3D satellite map. Pan anywhere in the world and every reporting airport appears as a pin showing its current conditions; temperature, wind, or sky at a glance. Tap a pin for the full picture: temperature and dew point, humidity, wind direction and speed, visibility, cloud layers with their heights, present weather, pressure, and the flight category (VFR, MVFR, IFR, LIFR) colour-coded so you can read the field at a glance. The raw METAR is there too, for when you'd rather read it yourself. Features • A realistic satellite globe with live observations from thousands of reporting stations • Switch pins between conditions, temperature and wind • Star up to 30 airports and keep them on a quick-access bar at the bottom of the map • Browse the previous 24 hours of observations at every airport • Search by ICAO code or airport name across the world's airports • Jump to your location to see the fields nearest you • Fully decoded METARs in plain language, with the raw report available All observations come from NOAA. ColdFront is for situational awareness and interest, always consult official sources for flight planning.
