This reminds me a lot of Dark Sky from a year or two ago. It was my partner's favorite weather app... until Apple bought the company and promptly announced they were killing it.
- frutiger 5y agoUnlike Primephonic, Dark Sky is still a functioning website and app to this day. I presume it will only be sunset (ha!) after iOS 15 and Monterey reach general release.

- rurp 5y agoI just tried searching it by name in the Play store and it did not come up. Apple might have backpedaled on the deprecation timeline for existing users but the initial announcement was basically telling Android users to get lost, so we switched to other apps shortly after.

Looks like it was removed from the play store sometime after yesterday evening.
- zamalek 5y agoEveryone's fussing about the walling off of Primephonic, so I guess they can safely kill off Dark Sky now that it's not newsworthy?
