Remember Dark Sky? It's back as Acme Weather!
Was browsing the internets and came across this fun one!
If you're unfamiliar, Dark Sky was a weather app that was acquired by Apple back in 2020. Allegedly, they took parts of Dark Sky and incorporated into the (very contentious...) redesign of the default Weather app.
I was very sad when they finally shut down Dark Sky because it was the best weather app for predicting minute-by-minute rain in NYC. I used it every day. There's no other app today in my experience that's come close at all.
So according to the intro blog post, I guess the founders of Dark Sky had a good time at Apple, but left and decided to give this another shot. And now they're back as Acme Weather!
It's a $25/year subscription with a 2 week free trial.
