But I promise to bring awful weather soon.” Oh jeez, thanks. Or if you’re having a warm, sunny day, the bot might tell you, “it’s pretty nice out. “Someone’s getting frostbite tonight!,” it jokes in the dead of winter, for example.
What makes this new app fun to use is that its forecasts are delivered with biting commentary designed to make you laugh. The app is actually beautifully designed, too, so if you’re a fan of minimalist weather apps with a clean presentation, you won’t feel like you’re missing out if you switch to Carrot’s more entertaining version. You can also swipe up from the bottom of the app to see a more detailed view of the upcoming weather, including the weekly forecast and other conditions. That’s the same backend that powers the popular weather app Dark Sky, meaning Carrot Weather users have access to weather data like barometric pressure, wind speed and direction, visibility, sunrise and sunset times, the “feels like” temperature, moon phase, and more, in addition to the daily highs and lows as well as the 7-day forecast. Like its other apps, Carrot Weather features a talking bot with a ton of personality, but combines this with high-quality weather data powered by Forecast.io. Carrot, the makers of a suite of sarcastic apps including a to-do list app that berates you for slacking and a weight loss app that shames you about your poor eating choices, has just introduced the latest addition to its lineup: a snarky weather application that delivers your daily forecast with a twist.
