The 'Comfable' weather temperature app is designed to tell you the weather, as well as how you'll feel on a given day. What is "hot" or "cold" is a relative feeling that varies between people. The 'Comfable' app recognizes this and provides a weather report with additional information like how you'll feel based on the weather, and what you should wear. By entering what kinds of clothes you have in your closet, 'Comfable' will provide suggestions for the best choice.
There are more physiological factors than just the temperature outside that affect how comfortable we will be in a day and this app is designed to provide you with an extremely detailed report for maximum comfort. The 'Comfable' app is currently collecting funds on Indiegogo, hoping to raise $9,000 by July 14, 2013.
