Swackett is the latest software offered by Apple, which aims at simplifying the weather info. Most of the weather updates that we get are slightly difficult to understand.
Swackett, developed by AGLogic, LLC, aims at simplifying this information into plain english (no technical terms). The app is developed for Mac OS X 1.6 or higher and can be downloaded for free from Mac App Store.
Swackett comes from three words SWeater, jACKET and coaT. A very unusual name indeed, but the app itself is extremely useful and user-friendly, as it promises to be.
