What is the weather app on the iPhone?
Weather is an app for iOS devices developed by Apple Inc. that has been available since the release of the iPhone and iPhone OS 1 in 2007. The app allows users to view weather conditions, forecasts, temperature, and other related metrics for their current location as well as for other cities. There is also a version of the app available for watchOS, but it has limited functionality. Previously, weather data from Apple was only available as a widget or through Siri, but it became available on more devices with the release of iPadOS 16 and macOS Ventura.
In earlier versions of the app, up to iOS 7, the forecast data was sourced from Yahoo! Weather. However, in March 2019, Yahoo! shut down the servers that distributed data for the Weather app on devices supporting iOS 7 and earlier operating systems. From iOS 8 to iOS 15, The Weather Channel provided the app's weather data. Since iOS 16, Apple has used its own internal forecast data. After Apple's acquisition of the weather app Dark Sky, many of its features have been incorporated into Apple's Weather app with the release of iOS 15. However, support for Dark Sky ended on January 1, 2023, and users were advised to switch to the Weather app.
