  1. 4/5A uniquely useful look at the weather

    There’s nothing quite like Weather Strip. Once you get used to the interface, which takes about one minute for the first 98%, then a day for the rest, you can learn everything you need to know about the weather for today and for the week in five seconds, with more detail than any block of numbers and letters. More important, you get the feeling of weather trends at the same time. It’s like having a watch that’s both digital and analog at the same time — only for weather. The interface could use a little cleaning up, and I would love the ability to go backward in time and see yesterday’s weather, or last week’s.

  2. 4/5Great information clarity and density, but a bit dull

    Weather Strip earns it place on my home screen with the amount of information it packs into each glance. It is a brilliant portrayal of the immediate situation and what’s to come. I think the design is brilliant, but I can’t say the same for the color scheme. The poor color choices are my reason for giving the app only four stars. Weather Strip makes every day seem a bit gloomy and flat. I wish the developer at least provided one or two alternative color choices, and that one of these was a bit brighter. I would like a brighter sun in a bluer sky for the sunny days, darker more brooding clouds for the cloudy days, shinier snow, wetter rain. It would be wonderful if Weather Strip not only gave me the information at a glance, but helped me feel the weather at a glance. Still, nothing else in the App Store comes close to matching Weather Strip yet. It will stay on my home screen even if it is a bit dull to look at.

  3. 5/5The best hi-info instant-comprehension weather app out there

    Tired of looking at columns of numbers and trying to form an internal visualization out of them, or wondering how the cloud cover and precipitation likelihood will actually change over time from those crazy weather symbols, etc.? You may find, like me, that this information-loaded, incredibly intuitive, wholistic, and instantly comprehensible weather app is the only one you need ... it did away with all my favorites accumulated over years of searching, except the couple I keep for alerts & radar. This amazing app translates reams of data into a visual representation that is immediately comprehensible by the day or week. The widgets in themselves convey such a quick understanding of the detailed weather picture that opening the app is often not necessary. Weather Strip should have 10 times the number of 5-star reviews shown on the App Store.

  4. 5/5Great first version

    Excellent visualization of upcoming weather information. Hope to someday see a radar view added, especially with wind visualization like the old Storm app from weatherunderground. WU’s current app doesn’t show cloud cover, which matters to me, but Weather Strip does so, nicely. The height of the rain graph shows percentage chance of rain, but it would be nice if light versus heavy rain was depicted by paler or more saturated blue, as well. It looks like a nice start to an app I hope to use for a long time. It will be interesting to see how Winter is shown; can’t tell yet because only USA locations are allowed, and it’s not Winter currently. I tried selecting northern Alaska, but the app crashed, and I needed to delete it to get it to stop crashing on launch. But it’s a v1.0, and I don’t live in Alaska, so not really a big concern for me. Looking forward to seeing how this app improves. Saw the announcement for it on nine2fiveMac.

  5. 4/5Great app, could be even better

    Love that this app gives hour-by-hour data for your current location straight from NOAA in an easy-to-read graph for temp, cloud cover, chance of rain, amount of rain, and UV index. I’ve found it to be immensely helpful—this quickly became one of my most-used weather apps. My only complaint is that there doesn’t seem to be a way to search for other locations beyond finding them on the map and there doesn’t seem to be a way to store a list of locations you look at frequently for easy access. You can drop a pin on the map and save it for future use, but you still have to scroll across the map to find your pin. Hopefully those features will be added in the future!
