iPad Finally Gains Weather App With iPadOS 16

[MacRumors]

With iPadOS 16, Apple is finally bringing a native Weather app to the iPad, taking advantage of the larger iPad display. Apple is also introducing WeatherKit for developers on the platform.

The iPad's lack of a Weather app has been a long-running joke with iPad users. While iPadOS 16 brings a Weather app to the iPad, it does not seem the iPad is gaining a Calculator app. iPadOS 16 will be available to developers for beta testing later today and to public beta testers in July.

Now let's hope iPadOS 17 gets the calculator app.

 

[GhostOS]

Wow, this is revolutionary. Calculator app next year!

 

[RavynArcadia]

This is long overdue. Now why no calculator app?

 

[Achillias]

IPadOS is such a disappointment, Apple just doesn't want their users to use the device more like a laptop. It has the power, but they are holding it down.

This is HUGE! Amazing!

Calculator 2023!

 

[darngooddesign]

Suck it calculator fans!!! 🤣

 

[TL24]

LOL unbelievable, how is this even a thing?

"Now, with the Weather app for the iPad you'll be able to see today's forcast along with the next 10 days. Truly a revolutionary and we cannot wait for you to use it." /s

Calculator app due in 2055

Long over due... like the Calculator app

 

[McScooby]

Kinda obvious after iOS16 it was getting it as it would need it for the lock screen animation (if it gets it).

This is cool but is the M1 powerful enough?

 

[koifish22]

Now bring it to Mac, please.

Edit: They did 🙂

 

[Mazda 3s]

Magical.

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

As many other suggested. Hopefully Calculator is next.

Please Apple make it happen, already It's 2022 on our way to 2023. Come on! How much courage is it going to take?

 

[nfortna]

Let me guess, also exclusive to M1 iPads? 🤣

For those of you want a calculator app on the iPad, it's fairly easy to make one using Apple's developer tools. A great starting project for learning to code.

 

[ThisBougieLife]

Not sure why it took them so long, but better late than never.

I'll look forward to a calculator in iOS 20.

 

[CordovaLark]

That doesn't compare to Siri finally being able to help users identify a Dog. All it took was a decade.

 

[stringbender]

No thanks.. looks like crap.. I'll stick with WTF

 

[johnmed]

Marques Brownlee has entered the chat…

 

[jonnyb098]

Called it….they gave us full windows but no calculator. Classic.

 

[twocents]

Be still my beating heart

 

[PsykX]

What's harder to believe?
A. The fact that we finally have Weather on iPad
B. The fact that we still don't have Calculator on iPad
