About this app
Kutweer beantwoordt de enige weersvraag die ertoe doet: gaat het regenen, ja of nee? Geen 14-daagse voorspelling. Geen "gevoelstemperatuur". Geen luchtvochtigheid, UV-index of pollenradar. Eén antwoord, direct op je scherm! Wat de app wel doet: Zegt of het gaat regenen. Ja of nee. Toont de buienradar, voor als je het niet gelooft. Checkt je fietsroute naar huis, zodat je weet of je droog thuiskomt of alsnog zeiknat wordt. Wat de app niet doet: Zeuren met vijf schermen aan gegevens die je toch niet leest. Pushmeldingen dat het "best fris" is. Doen alsof 60% regenkans nuttige informatie is. Elke keer dat je de app opent krijg je er een eerlijke observatie over het weer bij. Niet vrolijk. Wel waar. Radar op basis van KNMI-data. Werkt in heel Nederland. Dat is het. Meer heb je niet nodig. Oja. En je gegevens gaan nergens heen. Het boeit mij niet waar ergens in Nederland jij de weersv…

What you can learn from Kutweer
Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be. The 5 screenshots above are Kutweer's answers to those questions — they're public, they're real, and they made it through Apple's review.
What the numbers say: Kutweer runs a mixed light-and-dark set where the background shifts from screenshot to screenshot (first shot #FCFCFC) — each image has to stand on its own, so the captions carry more of the story. The accent colour we picked up, #2C84D4, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look. Hit Use this style to open the editor with these exact colours and drop your own screenshot in.
Notice the first screenshot in particular. It's the one users see in search results and on the product page, and it's where most apps spend their best caption and tightest design. Look at the proportion of background to phone, where the text sits, what one thing the image is trying to communicate.
