PurpleWeather is most probably the simplest weather application youll be able to find on the App Store. It wont give you fancy tables with temperatures and UV indexes.

But PW is surprisingly powerful. Yes, PurpleWeather is powered by forecast.io, the worlds most precise and extended network of weather stations.

And you know whats cool? Weather data is presented not with numbers and icons, but in plain English. So it is more human.

In addition to this, PurpleWeather already does what many weather applications do:
- displays the current temperature in your Home screen
- notifies you if its going to rain soon
- shows you a graph for precipitation intensity, so you know exactly at what time of the day you need to take out your umbrella.
