GPF Weather System
Weather Information
Free
Accurate local weather powered by Apple WeatherKit. Real-time updates, 7-day forecast, smart alerts, Home Screen widget, and automatic refresh in a clean interface.
GPF Weather System delivers precise, real-time weather information powered by Apple WeatherKit.
Designed with clarity and minimalism in mind, the app provides current conditions and a 7-day forecast in a clean, distraction-free interface. Weather data refreshes automatically every minute and when the app returns to the foreground, ensuring up-to-date information.
With the latest updates, the app introduces configurable weather alerts for temperature thresholds and incoming rain, along with customizable cooldown intervals. A dedicated Settings panel allows full control over notifications. The Home Screen widget displays the latest saved data and updates automatically on a best-effort basis. A companion Apple Watch app allows you to check current conditions and manually request a refresh directly from your wrist.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
This build introduces configurable weather alert notifications, a new Settings panel, a new Home Screen widget, a new Apple Watch companion app, and upgraded weather visuals with realistic animations (sun glow/rays, rain, snow, cloud drift, storm flash).
Please test:
• Temperature alerts (low and high thresholds)
• Feels-like temperature display: verify “Feels like” appears under the main temperature (orange), above Humidity, and matches the apparent temperature value from WeatherKit
• Rain alerts based on minute forecast or hourly fallback
• Customizable thresholds and cooldown interval
• Toggle enable/disable for temperature and rain alerts
• Automatic refresh behavior (1-minute interval and foreground return)
• Notification permission flow and correct alert delivery
• Alert cooldown behavior: confirm alerts trigger only when thresholds are crossed and do not repeat excessively
• Main weather graphics: verify realistic condition effects render correctly (sun rays/glow, rain streaks/splash, snow drift, cloud drift, storm flash) and remain smooth during updates
• Accessibility: with Reduce Motion enabled, confirm weather effects are reduced/tempered appropriately
Widget (Home Screen):
• Add the “GPF Weather System” widget (small/medium) and verify it displays city, condition icon, temperature, feels-like temperature (if enabled), and last updated time
• Widget refresh: confirm the widget updates after opening the app and after a manual refresh, using the latest saved data (App Group)
Apple Watch companion app:
• Open the companion app and verify it displays city, condition icon, temperature, and last updated time
• Tap Refresh and confirm it requests an update from iPhone and updates promptly
• If iPhone is not reachable, confirm the “refresh queued” status appears and the watch updates later when connectivity returns
No login or account setup is required. Grant location and notification permissions when prompted.
