Daytime forecast
Why Arc Weather
A weather forecast you can read in one glance.
Arc Weather is a visual weather app for people who want to see how the day changes. Instead of opening separate cards for temperature, rain, clouds, sunshine, and wind, you get one aligned timeline that makes the relationships between them easier to understand.
It is a focused alternative to Apple Weather and other weather apps when your most important question is not only “what is the temperature?” but “what will the whole day feel like, and when will it change?”
Best for: planning walks, commutes, outdoor time, travel, photography, and any day where the timing of changing weather matters.
The design goal: keep the forecast calm enough to scan and detailed enough to answer follow-up questions.
What you can see
More weather detail, without a busier forecast.
The timeline gives you the big picture first. Scrub through the hours when you want the details.
Details when you need them
Explore hourly precipitation probability, humidity, cloud cover, UV, wind direction, speed, and gusts without losing the overall view.
Designed for quick decisions
See when conditions change, choose the right time to go out, and understand the forecast without digging through multiple screens.
Where it fits
A focused alternative to conventional weather apps.
Different weather apps are good at different jobs. Arc Weather is built for visual hourly planning and understanding the shape of the day.

Arc Weather FAQ
Straight answers about the visual forecast, features, alternatives, data, and who the app is for.
What is Arc Weather?
Arc Weather is a visual weather app for iPhone. It turns an hourly forecast into one timeline so temperature, clouds, precipitation, sunshine, and wind can be understood together.
What makes Arc Weather different from Apple Weather?
Apple Weather is a broad, general-purpose weather app. Arc Weather is built around a visual hourly chart, so its main job is showing how conditions change through the day in one view.
Is Arc Weather a minimalist weather app?
Yes, if minimalist means calm and easy to scan rather than missing useful detail. Arc Weather stays focused on one timeline while keeping important hourly weather layers available.
Is Arc Weather feature-rich or simple?
Arc Weather balances both. It provides a focused visual forecast while also offering current conditions, precipitation, cloud cover, sunshine, wind, humidity, UV, and more detail when you scrub through the hours.
What weather information does Arc Weather show?
Arc Weather shows temperature, feels-like conditions, precipitation probability, rain or snow, cloud cover, sunshine or daylight, wind speed, gusts, direction, humidity, UV, and other hourly forecast details.
Who is Arc Weather designed for?
Arc Weather is designed for people who want to understand the whole day quickly: when rain begins, how temperatures change, whether clouds clear, and how wind or sunshine develops.
Does Arc Weather replace every other weather app?
Arc Weather is a focused alternative rather than a claim to replace every weather service. It is especially useful when the question is how the weather will change through the day and what the day will feel like.
Where does Arc Weather get its weather data?
Arc Weather uses Apple WeatherKit for forecast data and presents that forecast in a visual hourly timeline.
Is Arc Weather free?
Arc Weather is free to download on the App Store, with optional in-app purchases. Current availability and pricing are shown on the App Store product page.
Does Arc Weather work on iPhone?

How accurate is Arc Weather?
No weather app can guarantee an exact forecast. Arc Weather visualizes forecast data from WeatherKit, while accuracy naturally varies by location, forecast horizon, and changing weather conditions.
