Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) has purchased popular iOS app Dark Sky for undisclosed terms.

The acquisition means the Android version of the app will shutter on July 1, and other popular apps like Carrot Weather will lose API access at the end of next year.

For now, the Dark Sky iOS app will remain the same, though Apple will likely roll the product/tech into its operating system in the future.
