Sparrow is a colorful hourly forecast app built entirely in the menubar. Get quick access to the current weather conditions as well as the high and low for the day. The hourly forecast is displayed in a gradient of colors depending on the temperature.

Heyo 😃 As the creator of Sparrow, I’m thrilled to share my first menubar app. I've always been fascinated by the native functionality of the macOS menubar, and I wanted to explore its capabilities in a unique way. While developing Sparrow, my primary goal was to create something that was simple and convenient, as well as visually stunning. To achieve this, I utilized color gradients that correspond to the hourly temperature - a small detail, but one that adds a beautiful, eye-catching aesthetic and makes checking the weather a more engaging experience. I also created several themes based on popular birds, such as Blue Jay, Parrot, Snow Owl, and Raven. Developing this app has been an interesting journey in Swift code powered by OpenWeatherMaps API, and I'm excited to hear your thoughts and feedback! Enjoy checking the weather with Sparrow 🪶

Hi, Beautiful product. What API is Sparrow powered by for its weather data?

@jorge_aguilar_avendano the API I’m using is OpenWeatherMaps One Call 3.0

Love the idea, but stuck at taking flight

@ryanmtaylor Sorry to hear you're having issues. Sometimes this can happen if the app doesn't have access to location services. Double check your system settings > privacy & security > location services to see if Sparrow Weather has been added to the list and is turned on.

very useful as a developer

Fantastic. So simple, easy to use, and great to look at when I need to see the temp while at my computer. So happy to find such a great app and look forward to what comes next.
