No vector polygons, dew point information, and will not remind you whether or not to take a jacket or cardigan with you. It simply gives us the weather forecast for the next few hours and the next 3 days. This is why it is so effective. By not venturing to forecast beyond what is actually predictable, it almost never fails in its predictions.
INTERFACE:

WORKING OF THIS WEATHER APP:
As we mentioned at the beginning of this article, Solar is an application that is used through gestures. Basically only 5 are used:
At a glance and with the simple gestures that we have shown you, we will have all the weather information gathered in this minimalist application.
We can add as many populations as we want.It has a large database in which you will surely find all the cities in the world that you want to add. If there is one that you cannot find, you can always choose to include a city close to the one you want to enter.
Also, if we look at the color of the background, we can get a quick idea of what the environment of the city we are consulting is like. When the colors are reddish it means that there is a sensation of heat. When the colors are greenish and bluish sensation of cold. We can also enjoy animations and see how drops of water fall when rain is forecast.
Under the date, a description will appear (in English) where it will tell us if the sky will be clear, covered, with clouds
Here's a video so you can see the interface and operation of the app:
OUR OPINION ABOUT SOLAR:
If you want to have on your iPhone an exhaustive weather forecast application with in-depth analysis and weather information, this is not your app.
With Solar we will only have available the basic and necessary information that every ordinary person needs. Why do we want to know the humidity of the environment? And the probability of rain? Honestly, from our point of view, these are data that do not seem interesting to us. What we are interested in knowing is if it is going to be sunny, if it is going to rain and the temperatures that are expected.
With Solar we know that this information is more than covered and, furthermore, by making a weather forecast for a few days (only 3), the effectiveness of the prediction is Much higher than that of other apps that can forecast up to 15 days.
One thing we love is the dynamic background that we can enjoy in the app.Looking at it we can get an idea of the sensation of heat, cold, if it will rain. But the best way to enjoy it is by sliding your finger from bottom to top and dynamically see the contrast of temperatures and weather phenomena that will occur in the next 24 hours.
The only drawback of this weather app is that it's in English, but it's not a problem since it's very easy to understand and configure.
So if you want to have a simple and reliable weather app on your device, maybe Solar is the app you are looking for.
