APPS006 Carrot Weather

[Jan Gruber]

<div class="bbWrapper">Der App Store bietet einen Überfluss an Anwendungen. Viele Themenbereiche sind hundertfach besetzt, so auch Wetter-Anwendungen. Mit Carrot Weather gibt es aber eine App, die sich etwas absetzen kann.<br /> <br /> Die App punktet durch zuverlässige Vorhersagen dank Dark Sky, dazu kommen einige andere Anbieter. Die Vorhersagen sind sehr genau, außerdem gibt es bekannte Features wie Warnungen oder eine Wetterkarte. Interessanter wird es dann mit der Möglichkeit, viele Jahre in die Vergangenheit zu blicken. Durch die Persönlichkeiten, die euch das Wetter in lustiger Form und mit viel aktuellem Bezug präsentieren, setzt sich die App dann vollständig vom Einheitsbrei ab. Leider ist das Bezahlmodell etwas komplex, ebenso ist die kürzlich veröffentlichte Catalyst-App durchaus teuer. Ein weiteres Manko: die App liegt nur auf Englisch vor.<br /> <br /> <span style="font-size: 18px"><b>Carrot Weather</b><br /> </span><br /> Accurate and Detailed<br /> <br /> Dark Sky’s super accurate weather data gives you quick access to your current, hourly, and daily forecasts.
