Weather App no longer shows hourly precipitation amounts with IOS 18

I was forced to upgrade to IOS 18. Now the apple weather app no longer shows the hourly precipitation amounts. I used to be able to look and it would give hourly predictions such as ".02" or ".5" between 9am-10am. Now it just gives things like "moderate" or "heavy" instead of the actual precipitation amount. This is an absolutely useless feature. I could care less if the next hour is getting "moderate" snow, I want to know the actual amount predicted. I'm not sure if this is a glitch, or if Apple simply got rid of this highly useful feature. There is no information on this, but given the overall complaints about IOS 18 it could be by design. I'm not quite sure why Apple thinks this new weather app is better because its missing the most useful functions. Very frustrating to say the least.

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 18

It's not always the iOS update's fault!  Many things can cause phone problems.  If you tell people you think it's an iOS update, it might make it harder to fix or find a solution for the real issue.



Remember, the right question often leads to the solution!



Was/Is your device Jailbroken? If that's the situation, please be informed that attributing the issues to iOS updates may not be accurate.



iOS updates aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. The majority of the issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.


Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors. This could be a pure coincidence that the iOS update affected the iPhone functions.


Before initiating a standard iOS update, it's advisable to create a backup. Have you completed this step? If yes, proceed with the restoration from the backup.
