Weather Timeline and the reason why you should have it


Weather Timeline is a simple weather app that focuses on summarising the next hour, the next 48 hours and the next week so you don't have to. It presents the forecast in a timeline to help you quickly glance and digest the information and has a strong focus on color to outline the weather conditions. The app includes current weather alerts/warnings for your chosen locations and includes a time machine weather forecast so you can look at the forecast months, even years in advance or check what the weather was like several decades ago.

If you desire a smooth and clutter-free weather experience, you’ll really like Weather Timeline. The app uses pleasant animations for rain, snow, and sunshine. You’ll also get good details about the forthcoming precipitation, temperature, and many other data points. It will make those iPhone fans who brag about how great Dark Sky just a little bit jealous, especially since this is one of those rare apps that’s an Android exclusive.

Weather Timeline also has a great selection of widgets if you want the forecast right on your homescreen. Android Wear support is also top notch, with current and daily weather report cards shrunk down for your watch.

You can get this app on Google Play with the cost of $1.

If you are looking for a great weather app for your iPhone or Android devices, then don't miss this article because right below here are 5 of the best weather apps of the year 2016, recommended by Trustedreviews.com.
No matter whether your device is using iOS or Android operating system, those weather apps below here are all very helpful!

1. Dark sky

Dark Sky’s big feature is an uncanny ability to tell you exactly when it’s going to rain where you're standing. As well as the usual forecast, this app provides you with notifications alerting you when precipitation is due, when it’ll stop, and what type of shower you can expect. It’s all focused on hyperlocal forecasting, and it works incredibly well.

Price: Free (£2.99 one-off payment on iOS, £2.99 yearly subscription on Android for full version)

2. Accuweather

AccuWeather is a great all-round weather app. With hourly, daily, and 15-day forecasts, plus a MinuteCast feature that gives you 2-minute hyperlocal forecasts for the coming two hours, there’s lots to like about AccuWeather. The MinuteCast feature itself gives you precise information for your GPS location or street address including precipitation start times, type, and intensity.

Price: Free (£2.99 for Platinum version on App Store, £2.54 on Play Store)

3. BBC Weather

Looking for an ad-free, easy to use weather app? The BBC has the answer. BBC Weather combines a refined and clean interface with all the standard features you’d expect from a decent weather app. It’s not the most feature-packed option on this list, but sometimes simpler is better.


With this app you get a summary of the day’s weather, while swiping will bring up hourly changes. The app also comes with 10-day forecasts, the ability to add specific locations to your favorites, pressure, visibility, and humidity read outs, and UV and pollen counts. There’s no fancy radar or maps view, but everything is nicely arranged and easily accessible.

Price: Users can get this app for free.

4. Yahoo Weather

Yahoo Weather might just be the prettiest weather app available. It won an Apple design award in 2013 and it’s easy to see why. Weather information is overlaid on a photo of whichever location you happen to be in. The images themselves are taken from Flickr, and match the time of day and current weather conditions.

In terms of features, you get an hourly, five-day, and 10-day forecast alongside information such as temperature, humidity, visibility, and UV levels. There’s also precipitation levels for the coming day, and wind and pressure details.

Price: Free

5. Weather Underground

This app takes an interesting approach to weather forecasting. The information is provided by 180,000 personal weather stations run by weather enthusiasts, making for what the developers claim are “the world's most accurate hyper-local weather forecasts”. You can view and favourite any of the individual weather stations using the ‘Refine’ map, and Android users will benefit from a Material Design layout, while iOS users can connect the app to their Apple Watch and get quick updates.

You can swipe through hour-by-hour and 10-day forecasts which will give you information such as chance of precipitation, and there's also interactive radar, satellite maps, and severe weather alerts, along with the ability to scroll through time using the interactive play-bar on the radar and satellite display. So, if you’re looking for something a bit different, give Weather Underground’s crowd-sourced offering a go.
