Sunshine, a crowdsourced app, is adding a new feature that allows users the ability to specify how hot or cold the weather feels to them. The app makes use of subjective taps to learn a user’s temperature preferences. This allows them to serve up more relevant weather reports to them.
The app first launched in October of last year. Its stated mission is all about humanizing data-heavy app categories to help make it more consumer friendly. The evolution of phone hardware has been encouraging towards app makers to push crowdsourced weather apps at their customers. Sunshine pulls data from phone sensors in order to power its reports whilst encouraging users to directly make weather reports themselves.
