Dark Mode is a dramatic new look that's easy on your eyes and helps you focus on your work. Dark Mode uses a dark color scheme that works system wide, including with the apps that come with your Mac. And third-party apps can adopt it, too.
The app is already labeled 'Dark Sky by Apple' on its website. Dark Sky will be shut down for existing Android users on July 1, 2020, with users to be refunded. For existing API users, it'll. Dark Sky will continue having the website to support APIs and its iOS app. The company’s APIs would continue to work until the end of 2021 and Dark Sky won’t accept new signups starting today. Neither Apple nor Dark Sky has revealed the details of the acquisition, including the cost of acquisition and the size of the team. Dark Sky offers hyperlocal, down-to-the-minute forecasts that let you know exactly when the rain will start or stop, right where you’re standing. (It’s like magic.)

Today we have some important and exciting news to share: Dark Sky has joined Apple.
Our goal has always been to provide the world with the best weather information possible, to help as many people as we can stay dry and safe, and to do so in a way that respects your privacy.
There is no better place to accomplish these goals than at Apple. We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to reach far more people, with far more impact, than we ever could alone.
