Apple officially shuts down the Dark Sky weather app

It's FREE

As of January 1st, 2023, iOS users can no longer download and use the stand alone weather app Dark Sky, as Apple has officially removed the app’s access to it.  The Dark Sky features can now only be used in Apple’s Weather app, which is included on all new Macs and iOS devices running iOS 16.

Apple acquired Dark Sky in March 2020 and it has since incorporated many of the app’s features into the preinstalled Weather app on the iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Earlier this month, Apple shared a support document with information on how Dark Sky users can use the Weather app, which now offers “hyperlocal” forecasts, including next-hour precipitation, hourly forecasts for the next 10 days, high-resolution radar maps, and severe weather notifications.
