AcuRite, a weather-monitoring company known for its devices such as weather stations and thermometers, is requiring users to transition to its new AcuRite Now app by May 30, 2026. This decision has frustrated many long-time customers who are accustomed to the My AcuRite app, which will be phased out. The AcuRite Now app, first introduced in June 2025, is designed to control a variety of devices and is integrated with Tuya’s SmartLife IoT ecosystem, allowing control over third-party smart devices. However, users have voiced concerns regarding the new app's functionality, citing issues such as the inability to rename multiple temperature sensors and difficulties in uploading data to weather services. Additionally, while AcuRite Now supports data sharing with Weather Underground, it requires a subscription fee starting at $2 per month for enhanced features, including extended data storage. AcuRite has indicated that it is working on updates to address user complaints, but many customers remain skeptical about the new app's capabilities compared to its predecessor.
