If you haven't yet, submit your feedback to https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/new-form-response I found WeatherKit under iOS & iPadOS (scroll all the way down). Recent Similar Reports show as "None", so perhaps there hasn't been enough reports. Also, it's ridiculous Apple hasn't responded to any of the recent posts in this forum. 15 days left of support for Dark Sky and WeatherKit has been down for almost 2 days without any acknowledgement from Apple.

Hey all, so, my app was rejected because "We noticed your app displays Apple weather data but does not include the required Apple Weather attribution." My app pulls current, hourly, and daily weather conditions. It doesn't pull alerts. I display the apple logo and attribution link on my Credits page in the Settings -> About page. (As well as showing the logo on the Launch Screen and mentioning it in the App Store description). I basically subbed out 'DarkSky' for 'WeatherKit'. But apparently this isn't enough? The "Get Started" page for WeatherKit says "you must clearly display the Apple Weather trademark (Weather), as well as the legal link to other data sources." This doesn't make it clear where the "clearly display" needs to happen. Are we supposed to put an apple logo on every screen that shows any weather details? Any help/advice would be appreciated.

I’m migrating from Dark Sky to WeatherKit and I’m disappointed to discover that there isn’t a longer forecast description like DarkSky’s ‘summary’. Instead all I can get is the one or two words from ‘condition’. Example for the hourly forecast in my area tonight: Dark Sky: “Light rain until morning, starting again in the evening”. WeatherKit: “Rain” Does anyone know if there’s any plan to add a longer description? My app partly relies on these details and I’m worried about how to work around this limitation. Do I get the description from another source? What if there’s a discrepancy between weather data? Do I scrap WeatherKit entirely? My app is free with no ads so I really try to stay low on api calls and there just doesn’t seem to be any better options in that regard compared to WeatherKit. (I average 6-8k calls a day in darksky) any help/advice/ideas would be greatly appreciated.
