Apple’s Weather app comes pre-installed on iPhones and Apple Watches. The Cupertino-based tech giant has also added this service to the iPad and Mac with the iPadOS 16 and macOS Ventura updates. Apple TV users can also access updates about the weather from the app via Siri. According to a report by 9to5Mac, some users are facing some issues with the Apple Weather app. The report claims that the weather forecast service offered by the company is experiencing outages and slowdowns. This issue has affected some users who are being unable to check updates about the weather.
What Apple has to say about the issue
Apple has confirmed the issues on its System Status webpage. Whenever a service is partially or completely offline, the company uses this page to inform users. Apple has claimed that the Weather app “may be slow or unavailable.”
The company’s website also mentions that the outages started on March 30 and are still affecting “some users.” Apple hasn’t confirmed when this issue will be resolved, but the company is reportedly working on it.
