iPadOS 15: Hands-on with Apple’s Weather app for iPad
- Nextgrid 5y agoAm I just stupid or are the screenshots somehow wrong? Because I don’t see a weather app, I see weather.com being open in Safari.
- pragmatic8 5y agoThere is no actual weather app. This is a satirical article.
- auraham 5y agoI was about to say the same.
- acgh213 5y agoSo this article uses screenshots from weather.com, barely talks about the actual apple weather app, which just changed its data set from Weather.com, to the acquired Dark Sky. Seems really odd, and like a possible PR fluff piece paid by IBM and Weather.com to try and convince people that the built-in weather app for iOS 15 will be somehow bad. When in fact it will have the same features as Weather.com+ for free. Just feels wrong, and I can't entirely explain why. Edit: Leaving the rest of this for posterity, on a second read through it seems that Apple is using weather.com as the weather app on iPados 15, which is just a confusing decision on their part.
- npilk 5y agoYes - when you click on the iPad Weather widget for more detail, it takes you to weather.com.
- deep-root 5y agoThe Onion-like article's point is that iPadOS perplexingly does not include an Apple weather app. Or calculator app. This may not be obvious at a quick glance.
- npilk 5y agoIn particular, when you click for more detail on the Weather widget (which on iOS opens the Weather app), iPadOS takes you to weather.com. Thank you, I should have clarified this.
