Rainy Skies is an indie iOS weather app designed by a solo developer based on the foundation of the now defunct Dark Sky weather app. Rainy Skies now supports radar and has an Apple Watch app with widgets and complications.

Does it require internet connection to work? Congrats on the launch btw! 🎉

@rusty_aim Hi Mary, it does require an internet connection to work, at least some of the time. I have developed a smart caching system so even if you don't have internet for quite a while afterward, it will continue to use the data you retrieved previously. So even with spotty internet, you can still see your weather (though it won't be quite as accurate as it would be otherwise)!
@joel_fischer good to know, thank you sm! Good luck with your app! 🍀
I really like weather app that intuitively displays rain and cloud radar maps. Its UI is also simple and clear.

@sirui_wang Hello, unfortunately, I'm a professional iOS developer with no experience developing Android native apps. It's something I would love to see, but the amount of time it would take to make it happen is probably too much. If Rainy Skies ever became such a success that I could hire an Android developer, perhaps!

@joel_fischer As a developer, I completely understand how time-consuming creating an Android version can be. I look forward to your success with Rainy Skies.
Congratulations on the launch!
Finally, a Dark Sky replacement! Love the design! 👍

@shenjun Thank you so much! Glad you like it!
I always check multiple weather apps to get accurate information, so this is truly a game-changer for me! Wishing you great success! 🚀
