What room can be improved in the current weather forecast App?

The weather app is a very unique category, which everyone is used to. Apple divides 5, apps into 21 categories, while the weather app is independent of the tool app and is on an equal footing with the big category like games

. This classification has a strong western cultural background, and weather is a very important part of western culture. From the first day we learn English, our English teacher will tell you that if you don't know what to talk about with foreigners, just chat

what a good weather today!

I don't think any developer should be confused by classification when considering products. From the beginning, I thought, what kind of app am I making? Apple's 21 apps are actually very westernized and limited.

It can't be suitable for all cultural backgrounds. If you pay too much attention to developing apps by classification, you will easily ignore the real needs of users. In China's culture, people won't ask you, the weather is really today.

Only by jumping out of the influence of Apple's classification, opening your mind and understanding users' needs more deeply can you really find the direction of app optimization. Some cross-category apps that meet users' needs have greater opportunities and are more successful, such as the perpetual calendar, which functionally spans weather applications and tool applications. From a historical point of view, just like the revolution, the base areas of China's revolution appeared in the places where the big provinces handed over.

Maybe Apple will be truly localized one day. Maybe there will be a category of "eating" in the app store in China. Maybe this is not a joke?
