Princeton Junction, NJ (PRWEB) October 11, 2011
Local Wisdom received the 2011 Design Standard of Excellence award for its mobile app, Weatherwise, from the 15th annual international WebAward competition from the Web Marketing Association. The annual competition recognizes talented individual and team efforts in outstanding web development and online marketing.
Offering iPhone and Android users a visually entertaining way to receive the five-day weather forecast, Weatherwise features animated personas and landscapes that change based on various elements including time of day, precipitation, wind speed, and sunrise/sunset. The app comes installed with the standard Zen Tree theme with four, additional themes available for $0.99 including the Woobles, the Lost Robot, Personas, and the new 8-Bit theme.

“We are very grateful to our industry peers from the Web Marketing Association,” said Shawn Venkat, Managing Partner, Local Wisdom. “To receive international distinction for Weatherwise is incredible. It’s extremely rewarding when our peers recognize the work we do.”
Weatherwise continues to reach new milestones, recently surpassing 50,000 downloads since its launch in April 2011. Local Wisdom recently added a new theme to the app—the 8-Bit theme—available through the theme store within the app. Inspiration for the 8-Bit theme came from early 90’s video games.
To download Weatherwise or add new themes, visit the Apple App store on iTunes or the Android Marketplace.
