Apple’s Weather app is down, experiencing a widespread crash on Tuesday afternoon, April 28.
This leaves millions of iPhone users from checking current forecasts and temperature data.
The first reports of the power outage began around 11:36 a.m. ET, as reported by Apple’s System Status page.
The company confirmed that the app “may be slow or unavailable.” Right now the outage continues.
Users across the US took to X (formerly known as Twitter) and Reddit to report issues, with many reporting that the app has almost never faced a crash.
Despite Apple’s official site confirming that Weather was working properly, even hours after receiving multiple complaints, Apple later admitted that there were problems. It appears that the issue is sporadic and affects different users to varying degrees.
DownDetector, which monitors service disruptions, indicated an abnormal increase in complaints about both The Weather Channel app and Apple Support. It is important to note that DownDetector and Mashable operate under the ownership of Ziff Davis.
The problems experienced by The Weather Channel may be the cause of the problems experienced by Apple Weather, which uses information from other companies.
