Description of App

Weathertron is a live infographic of the entire day’s weather. See exactly what to expect from every minute of the day — clouds, rain, snow, and temps — on one screen. Unlike most apps, it's powered by 16 different weather data sources, statistically aggregated and weighted, so you always have the most accurate results for your location. Quickly tell you if should wear a sweater this morning, or if your softball game will be rained out tonight. Weathertron makes it dead simple to plan your whole day around the weather. Features: 
  • Unique 24-hour weather visualizations for today and tomorrow
  • 7-day forecast visual report and narrative summary
  • Weather forecasts for over 15,000 cities around the world
  • Advanced aggregated data using 16 different weather models
  • Choose between Fahrenheit and Celsius and 12-hour or 24-hour time

Accessibility Comments

This is an absolute nightmare for VoiceOver users - if you can get past the initial intro screens (extremely unlikely without sighted help) you will find VoiceOver announcing a mostly meaningless array of numbers, unlabelled buttons, unrecognised elements, stray bits of text and so on. This is not helped by the fact that when on the app's main page, VoiceOver will also see and announce the elements from every other page in the app - all mixed up together.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads a few page elements.

Button Labeling

No buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

The app is totally inaccessible.
