Yahoo! doing it right

   

OK, Yahoo! has powered the weather iOS app since I got my iPhone (4s).

Yahoo! has a new app for weather – I believe it was released 4/18/2013 – and it is awesome.

Blows the old, built-in app out of the water.

The old app – on the left – has info and so on.

The new app – on the right – is sexier, and integrates (Yahoo-owned) Flickr pics. Brilliant.

On the plus side, the new app adds way more weather info – in a sexier way – and loses, for the most part, none of the original weather app.

On the negative side, it doesn’t give a forecast upon load – have to “drill in” for that. No downside, to me.

Oddly, the new weather app reminds me of an Android screen in look & feel to it – like Samsung phones. A departure for iOS stuff.

Is it just me?
