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, \u201chas raised serious questions and concerns among many long-time users,\u201d AcuRite\u2019s VP of product development, Jeff Bovee, told Ars Technica.<\/p>\n

AcuRite, whose devices include weather stations, rain gauges, and indoor thermometers, told customers that it would shut down My AcuRite<\/a> 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.<\/p>\n

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<\/a> 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.<\/p>\n
