The Weather Channel app is a free to use weather forecasting app available on both, iOS and Android. The app has a very beautiful UI and is available to download for free. The Weather Channel app is also available on the Apple Watch. When you open the app, you are greeted with a beautiful image, usually describing the location you are in.
Sometimes, instead of a photo the Weather Channel app shows an advertisement. These are pretty annoying ads but do not take up the whole screen, you can use the app with the ad in the background. Users can get rid of the ads by paying US$3.99/year to make the app Ad-free.
Coming to the UI, all the information is displayed in a vertical manner with panels that show different information. But the app does not let you change or reorient the panels, so if you are looking for something specific you’ll have to scroll and search for it. The daily temperature, position of the sun, sunrise and sunset times, wind speed and more are displayed on the homescreen of the app. The daily forecast panels can be expanded to show more detailed information. As we all know, the app is originated by the TV channel so video content and articles are also available on the app.
The Weather Channel app also has a widget which you can use to have a quick glance of the day’s weather without even opening the app. Sometimes, the information on the widget does not get updated. This issue can be solved by some simple tips.
