And the Yahoo weather app:
Now, one thing I've noticed is the heavier Yahoo branding on the new iOS weather app. The first branding is in the corner.
Now of course the idea is that Yahoo is providing the weather data, but a second branding reveals a different source for weather data:
Yahoo Weather and Weather.com both operate independently from each other.
Also, tapping either loads search.yahoo.com or yahoo.com, rather than weather.com or weather.yahoo.com
This leads me to believe that Apple either bought the design of the Yahoo Weather app, or Apple has worked with Yahoo on the weather app.
Thoughts?
