Apollo Weather vs Weather Strip Usage & Stats

Apollo Weather is a powerful tool for endurance athletes and outdoor enthusiasts. Designed to be your go-to weather app for outdoor activities, and perfect for planning weekly bike rides or long runs. Apollo will help you answer three questions: 1. What are the best days to train during the week? 2. What are the best hours to train? 3. How should I prepare myself? IDEAL CONDITIONS AND RATINGS The user experience prioritizes training decisions and planning. All hourly forecasts have PERFECT, ACCEPTABLE or BAD ratings depending on your ideal conditions and active times. Ratings are based on your preferences instead of a mysterious formula. WEATHER GROUPS AND ROUTE ANALYSIS Weather Groups helps athletes track hourly forecasts across multiple locations. While it is valuable for runners and hikers, it excels for cycling. Cyclists can monitor weather conditions before embarking on a ride and even add a route to visualize the journey, simplifying planning and preparation. Here are some key benefits of using Weather Groups for your next ride: 1. Selecting the appropriate gear before each ride. 2. Choosing the optimal days and times to hit the road. 3. Ensuring proper hydration and fueling strategies. 4. Avoiding challenging headwinds, resulting in a more comfortable return home. Weather Groups will help you optimize your bike rides and make cycling more enjoyable. Available data sources for routes include: 1. Existing workouts in the Health app 2. GPX or FIT files FEATURES Apollo can be used as a general-purpose weather app and includes a 10-day daily and hourly forecast.

Weather Strip

An innovative, compact view of the weather that makes it easy to find the best times to go outside. Beautiful widgets for home screen, lock screen, and StandBy show much more detail than other weather apps, all while still being easy to read. Use the interactive map to see forecasts for any location in the world — including mountains, trails, lakes, and literally anywhere you place a marker. Extreme weather warnings are shown directly on the forecast timeline, so you can see exactly when the danger is expected — including thunderstorms, fires, hurricanes, flooding, and landslides. The enhanced meteogram visualization shows cloud cover, rain, snow, wind, and other weather data in a format that's quick to understand at a glance. Inline minute-by-minute precipitation forecasts show the next-hour conditions derived from radar stations. And you can configure the display to emphasize the weather variables that are most important to you. We take privacy seriously with NO ads, NO tracking, and NO third-party analytics. Weather Strip only stores location data on your local device, and it always uses approximate locations when requesting weather forecasts. Weather Strip also respects your data plan, with optional background app refresh that automatically learns your habits, and the ability to view your recent forecasts even when your connection drops. Weather Strip is completely free to try for two weeks. After that, a minimal subscription price helps us keep the service running. (Subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled within 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can turn off auto-renewal at any time by going to your Account Settings on the App Store after purchase.) Not all features are available in all locations. Forecasts are issued by Foreca and Apple Weather globally and by the U.S. National Weather Service (NOAA NWS) in the United States. Designed by data visualization researcher Robin Stewart to help everyone enjoy the outdoors.
