Solo dev's Waifu Weather iPhone app uses Claude-built 3D anime character to talk you through forecasts
Atomosic · reddit · 2026-10-17
Waifu Weather is a solo-developed iPhone app where an animated anime character verbally walks you through the forecast and planning (what to wear, umbrella alerts, outdoor timing). The 3D character model was designed with Claude, and much of the briefing system was AI-built. A free US beta is open via TestFlight, capped at 50 testers due to compute limits. A neat example of one person plus AI tooling shipping a consumer product.
