Spray

Set, share and log climbs on your gym's spray wall. Photograph the wall, and Spray finds the holds for you. Then tap holds to make a climb, grade it, and see what everyone else at your gym is climbing.

NOAA Weather

NOAA forecasts, animated radar and current conditions in an intuitive, easy to use interface. NOAA Weather uses National Weather Service point forecasts for your location, the most localized weather available, so it works only in the US. Your location comes from nearby cell towers and Wi-Fi first, to save time and battery, and from GPS when it needs to. You can also enter a location by hand.

When there is severe weather, a red warning icon appears in the corner of the current conditions; tap it for details. The app does not send severe weather alerts. NOAA delivers those directly through cell carriers: Wireless Emergency Alerts.

Location Info

Detailed location information, broken down by provider and by how an app would read it from the API. That is what makes it useful to developers: most people only care where they are, not which provider said so. Also includes Activity Recognition data.

Network KeepAlive

Some networks, usually Wi-Fi, make you log in again after a short period of inactivity, which stops email and push notifications arriving while you are not using the phone. KeepAlive downloads a tiny file now and then so the connection stays active.

It will not reconnect you once you are disconnected, and it cannot help with networks that log you out at set times or after a usage limit.
