Strengths and weaknesses
CARROT Weather
- Deepest customization of any weather app
- Personality makes checking the forecast fun
- Privacy label shows no data linked to you
- Most useful features need Premium Club
- Android app hasn't been updated since 2023
- Many tiers to choose between
CARROT Weather is the rare app that is both the most customizable forecast on your iPhone and the funniest. Pick a personality from polite to profane, then build your own layout, choose data sources like AccuWeather, Apple Weather or Foreca, and add radar, lightning and rain alerts. Widgets, Apple Watch complications and CarPlay are excellent. Most of that needs Premium Club, and the Android version is years behind.

MyRadar
- Radar loads the moment you open it
- Rain alerts give useful advance warning
- Lots of free map layers
- Location data shared for advertising
- Best hurricane tools need Premium
MyRadar opens straight to animated radar around you, and that speed is why so many people keep it on their home screen. Rain alerts warn you up to an hour before it starts, and layers add winds, fronts, wildfires, earthquakes and aviation data. Premium unlocks a detailed hurricane tracker and per-station radar for enthusiasts. The free version leans on location-based advertising, which is the price of all that radar.
