Folks here said the new Weather app has the same info. I upgraded to iOS 16 about a year before I normally would just to check this. And nope, it doesn't have the one feature I use Dark Sky for – the one feature no other weather app has: the ability to see what the weather was yesterday. It's what Dark Sky calls "Time Machine". (Can't believe Apple let them use this name this long, now that I think of it.) (I support…
It uses the DarkSky API, but also supports other weather API's: https://github.com/Leftium/ultra-weather#readme

I have used the WeatherBug app [1] on my most recent three or four Android phones. It provides tabs for the current conditions, hourly and 10-day forecasts, and a radar map. They also have a website [2] and an IOS app [3]. I haven't used either of these. [1] https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aws.androi...

I literally have never seen a number so high.

Carrot has it. It’s called Time Machine. I feel like it’s always had it.

Weather app doesn't even show the hour before. I get it, less features = simpler user interface and less code maintenance... but they could at least start at current hour BUT provide ability to scroll back in time for a few days, perhaps showing that data with 0.5 opacity faded to indicate that the data is no longer relevant (past). Otherwise I LOVE the updated weather app in iOS 16 where you can see many data points…
I’m not a big fan of this less features ethos. This feature anemic set of software that gets put out more often than not drives me bonkers. It’s as if they don’t want power users.
Upsetting about the app, but the new iOS weather app has the functionality essentially. The real gut wrencher is the darksky website going down. It’s how I check weather most of the time a no other browser weather site comes close to it in simplicity and features.
Does iOS do the freaky-accurate “light rain starting in five minutes, ending twenty minutes later” thing? If so, I’d love to know where, I’ve missed it.

It's a really strange (and wholly unnecessary) cycle.

The advantage of DarkSky was hyperlocalized forecast. I was able to time a walk between buildings dryly.
In hope that this could be useful to you: In Europe I had good success using AccuWeather for a similar purpose, the 60min forecast was almost always on point.
