Before we can say that one weather app is better than another, we have to see the features we need at the moment. The possibilities are endless, but the main thing that is required of an app is ease of use and the absence of unnecessary aggressive advertising. When we install this type of app on our cell phone, we aim to easily find out the weather forecast. Let’s see what characteristics this type of app should be more in demand:
- Temperature and wind chill: this is probably the most popular weather variable. The temperature and heat sensation of the place we are going to go is very important to know what type of clothing we will need. For example, if we are going to travel outside of our city, we need to know the temperature and heat sensation at our destination.
- Hourly forecast: sometimes the weather forecast is more complicated and incorrect. Therefore, it is more accurate to know the forecast by the hour. It is important to know not only the day it will rain, but also when it will rain.
- Warnings: If the weather changes drastically, the forecast can be changed and we will get a real-time warning of possible changes to be prepared.
- Ubicación: The app should also be able to find us and offer a weather forecast for the geographic location where we are. It is important for the app to be a satellite of our location so we don’t have to manually enter where we are.
- Sunrise and sunset: sunrise and sunset are two beautiful daily occurrences. Depending on these two parts of the day, we can find out how the days rise or fall depending on the time of year. You can also plan daytime or evening walks without surprises.
- Sea state: especially in the summertime it is interesting to know the water temperature, waves, and tide hours so you can do water sports or go to the beach in peace.
- Wind Status: wind speed in direction is important for any activity we are going to do.
