One of the apps I continue to pay a subscription for is CARROT Weather. And the app just got way better this week. I love the Live Activities feature of iOS where apps can publish live info to my Lock Screen. CARROT for long has shown a rain or snow graph as a live activity, but you have had to launch the app first to get it running, which for me has sort of defeated the purpose of having this kind of information there.
The latest update pushes these Live Activities to the lock screen without opening the app. There is also a CarPlay app that shows a weather map overtop your driving directions, though I have not found this compelling enough to give up Apple or Google Maps in the car.
