To understand and improve the Weather app, Apple collects limited information about the first time you launch the app in a day. This information is not linked to your identity. If you allow Weather to access your location, your location will be sent to Apple to provide relevant weather forecasts.
You understand the photo is not from the default iPhone weather app, but from a completely separate app and service with a separate privacy policy “The weather channel”, right?

Perhaps this would be a good use for other connected devices like smart power meters.
It’s a private feature in the Weather app on iPhone.
