“I wanted to do a subscription instead of a one-time purchase because the one-time purchase would have to cover several years, potentially, of people using this, and that would be a much larger sticker price. So those costs really start to add up quickly.”īased on his experience, Mueller says it’s important to think about what an app’s future costs may be and factor those into your business model decisions. That’s not a problem with an iPhone app, where you’re only using it once or twice a day at the most but with the complications on Apple Watch, that’s updating several times an hour every hour of every day.
The Weather Channel, AccuWeather, Aeris Weather, and WillyWeather data sources available as an upgrade. “Each time the app goes and updates its data, that costs a fraction of a cent. Features: Beautifully minimalist weather app. Mueller says that the idea for the $1.99 subscription was born of necessity. Users who purchase CARROT Weather also have the option of purchasing a non-recurring subscription to access CARROT complications, which provide weather data right on the watch face. Mueller focused the experience on a few key data points and used color to communicate weather conditions so that users can quickly get a sense of the weather without having to read everything. “I tried to use all of the hardware features built into the watch as much as possible to abstract away a lot of what would normally be visual in the interface on the iPhone." “When transitioning from iPhone to Apple Watch with CARROT Weather, I went really back to basics and started over from scratch,” says Mueller. The app is always up to date and you can hardly ever miss a weather alert or disaster notification. You get a notification before a tornado hits or 15 min prior alert for a possible rain shower.
CARROT WEATHER FOR APPLE WATCH SERIES
CARROT Weather is Grailr’s fifth in the series of CARROT apps, and it was this app that Mueller decided to focus on for Apple Watch. Leave aside basic weather info and rain alerts, Carrot Weather on Apple Watch notifies you about nearby lightning as well.
