Checking to see what the weather will be like, you thankfully no longer have to page through the local newspaper. You can get all the information you need on your phone, and here are five of the best weather apps for iOS and Android.
But each weather app looks a bit different from the rest, and it can be confusing to figure out how they work. Some, though, do have a few secrets up their proverbial sleeves. Did you know that iOS can show you a real-time temperature map of the world?
Apple’s weather app for iPhone also has a mysterious feature that perplexes users. There’s a dot that appears, and people don’t know why. Keep reading to find out why it’s there.
Apple changed several things when iOS 15 was released last year, and one of them is the built-in weather app. The tech giant acquired the Dark Sky app in 2020 and merged some of the features into iOS 15.
It received a major visual overhaul, making it easier to navigate and find the information you’re looking for. Apple also added the ability for you to see a global map with current temperatures, and a new 10-day makes planning more straightforward.
While many users have welcomed the changes, some noticed colored bars and a seemingly out-of-place dot in the 10-day forecast. It’s not a visual glitch but rather one of the secrets that the new weather app is hiding. The same dot can be seen in the UV Index scale a bit further down the app’s main page.
