Four years after making its debut on iOS, the hyperlocal weather app Dark Sky has finally made its way to Android. The app has had rave reviews from iOS users for its notifications and super accurate local weather information that it provides to your exact location. It is super impressive and the user interface is clean and simple in presenting the weather information to you. What’s better, the Android app starts free and you can subscribe to the Premium version of the app for $2.99 per year if you want to do so. iOS users pay $3.99 for the app.
The free version of the app provides you a 24 hour forecast as well as a 7 day forecast. You also get outstanding weather maps as well as current conditions. The real power of course is with the
