When will Darksky fail to work anymore.
I have it running now and it works fine.
What am I missing? -
@plainbroke If you have an API key from before Apple bought it up, Darksky still will work. They’re just not issuing new API keys any longer, and Apple seems to be wanting to put all of Darksky’s features into their own app, and use the API for themselves, so I doubt old keys are gonna go away any time soon.

@karsten13 Ahh, so rather than doing the API into the weather app, Apple’s decided to rewrite it completely. Good to know.

What am I missing?I just received an email last week from Apple saying that Dark Sky API will stop working on March 31 2023.
So you have a while yet before it goes belly up. And who knows… Apple might extend this out past the deadline.

Thank you all for information. I was upset. I really like the way my Darksky weather module looks on my screen. I guess in march next year I will think about having to change over to something else. Maybe by then someone will make it so the Darksky module works with another weather api…
-
@plainbroke problem is that darksky provided a lot of cool extra data that nobody else provides.
so all the others will lack something…

Hello there,
We wanted to let you know about a change coming to Dark Sky. Beginning on March 31st, 2023 the Dark Sky API will no longer be available. To prepare, we encourage you to learn more about WeatherKit, a new Apple API available on iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, and web that provides access to the new Apple Weather forecast data.
You can learn more here.
As always, we appreciate your support, and will continue to update you with any future changes.Thanks, The Dark Sky Team
