AcuRite admits new app falls short, delays old app’s May shutdown to fix problems
摘要
智能气象监测设备厂商AcuRite推迟了将用户强制迁移至新应用的计划。原定于5月30日关闭My AcuRite应用，但因新应用AcuRite NOW存在功能缺失、布局不佳等问题，引发长期用户严重关切。AcuRite产品开发副总裁承认新应用表现不佳，决定推迟旧应用关闭时间以修复问题。
Smart weather-monitoring device vendor AcuRite has delayed plans to force users onto a new companion app. The transition from My AcuRite to AcuRite NOW, which AcuRite previously set for May 30, “has raised serious questions and concerns among many long-time users,” AcuRite’s VP of product development, Jeff Bovee, told Ars Technica.
AcuRite, whose devices include weather stations, rain gauges, and indoor thermometers, told customers that it would shut down My AcuRite at the end of May. Devices owners would have to use AcuRite NOW, an iOS and Android app launched in June 2025, to control their gadgets instead.
Some long-time users lamented being forced to new software when the current software worked fine, if not better, than the new app. When Ars first reported on AcuRite in May, AcuRite NOW lacked some features of My AcuRite, including the ability to rename multiple temperature sensors, report temperatures in non-integers, as well as an online dashboard option. Users have also highlighted problems uploading data to weather sites and a poor layout with wasted space.
