San Francisco, Jan 1 (IANS) Tech giant Apple is permanently shutting down its popular weather application ‘Dark Sky’ starting today.

The weather application was removed from the App Store in September of last year, however, now it will stop functioning for existing users starting today.
After acquiring Dark Sky in March 2020, the tech giant incorporated many of the application’s capabilities into the pre-installed Weather app on the iPhone, iPad and Mac.
