My iOS 7 Weather App Concept

I like it! Clean and plenty of info! Even if Apple uses the new Yahoo Weather app as a stock app, I will be happy.

 

Agreed. I think the Yahoo! Weather app is one of the most beautiful apps I have on my phone. It had some issues, but with the last update they really stepped up the game.

 

With that font size, text would be microscopic on an iOS device...

 

Ouch. Sorry please try again. Very unlikely it will look anything near to this. Font looks to be about size 5 or 6 even on the new pic. Feels a little depressing for a weather app.

 

Well we will all know what it looks like in about 10 days. But if you have been reading the reports of the new iOS, things will be be much more monocrome with very little to no texture . Think new podcasts app or current iPhone music app. Also only small hints of color as accents. Also using dark grey for your clouds is not the best choice...

 

I think you are taking it a bit too literally as to the black and white look. Also party cloudy does not mean "rain". Doesn't really make sense in that instance.

And yes it will be a very big change. not so crazy it doesn't look like iOS but its going to be very different from numerous insider reports.

Your concept is a VERY radical change from what we have seen too.

 

Or you can just use the Yahoo Weather app.

 

Looks like an interesting design overall, but it feels a bit drab to look at. I don't agree with the dark'ish pastel type colors, and I feel like most of the elements are too small, giving it an "empty" feel overall. It comes across as flat and lifeless. It's a nice start though!

 

For me, tbh, nothing can beat the Yahoo app for what I want apple to do with the default weather app.

 

Very nice! I agree with sdilley14 - the dark pastels could be a little lighter, more bright or vivid, and that there's quite a bit of empty space. Maybe you could utilize this space to make the small text a bit larger and more readable? Just a thought! Also, my first impression when I glanced at it was that it was very simple (which, I understand was the look you were going for), but the large expanse of midnight blue in the middle of it without much variation seemed a bit too... plain, maybe? Not sure if I've explained it well, but I think maybe adding something like a gradient or something to make it a bit more visually appealing? Let me know if I need to better explain it!

 

Looks flat and ugly. Hopefully iOS 7 isn't even flat as people have been assuming

 

I like this a lot

 

Why is there two elements that tell me the time? At first I assumed it was the time it was last updated, but then I looked down and noticed I was wrong. Perhaps it's going over my head. Apple's weather app does this too; I don't get it.

Anyhow, with the current app, I can see the specific temperature for any given day at a glance. However, with your design, I have to look at the day, look down to find the point and then look left to find the temperature. Also, if your going to use a line graph, it's a good idea to put a dot in the middle of the meeting lines (it looks choppy without it).

And, I don't understand why the hourly precipitation requires a bar graph when the daily one doesn't. Could you explain your reason for this?

Aesthetically, it looks nice. I like the color scheme you chose. However, if there's almost no chance of rain, I think you should go with white clouds.

 

Ah. Yes, that makes sense. duh.

I think a pinch gesture would work better than a swipe because by going from day to hour your essentially viewing more precise data. Just like you would with a photo or website when you "zoom" in.

 

If iOS is going to be flat like this I am going to jump of joy, cause I have a 3GS and can't install this "crap"

But, thanks for trying.

 

Because what we have right now isn't crap?

 

Not really a fan of the blue background. Otherwise, I like the concept.
