## Description

Spectra is a minimalist weather app that renders live conditions as full-screen, generative visualizations — no icons, no charts, no clutter. Powered by Apple WeatherKit, with precise data one swipe away.

ATMOSPHERIC VISUALIZATIONS
Every condition becomes a distinct, full-screen animation:
CLEAR — a spectrum of light that tracks the sun
RAIN — dynamic precipitation lines
CLOUDS — a drifting noise-field atmosphere
WIND — vortex topology
SNOW — slow particle descent
THUNDER — branching lightning vectors
HEAT — rising thermal plumes

GENERATIVE, NOT CANNED
Every visualization is drawn in real time from live data. Intensity, density, and motion shift continuously with actual conditions — rain at 2 mm/h looks nothing like rain at 15 mm/h. No two moments are identical.

TIME-AWARE
Clear-sky visuals follow the sun — light beams widen toward noon and narrow at dusk, then fade from day to twilight to night.

THE DATA, WHEN YOU WANT IT
Swipe up for precise local readings from Apple WeatherKit:
- Temperature and feels-like
- Hourly forecast
- 7-day outlook
- Wind speed and precipitation
- Sunrise and sunset

WIDGETS
- A full-screen scene widget that mirrors the live visualization
- A compact HUD with current conditions
- An hourly forecast at a glance
- Lock Screen: current conditions, or the next few hours
Free for everyone.

MULTIPLE LOCATIONS
Save your cities and switch between them instantly.

BUILT FOR FOCUS
For people who want their weather quiet — detailed when you need it, ambient the rest of the time.

A quieter way to read the sky.

Available for iPhone and iPad.
Free forever in monochrome — including widgets. A single purchase unlocks Color, detailed data, and up to 10 locations. No subscription, no ads.
