A weather app with a mother's voice

Hırka havası

A decision, not a degree.

If a Turkish mother designed a weather app, it would not show you a number. It would tell you what to wear. HIRKA does exactly that: one sentence, based on where you are.

“Whatever the weather says, a cardigan will do.”

What is HIRKA?

HIRKA is a weather and outfit app that answers "what should I wear today?" with one sentence instead of a temperature. It reads the feels-like temperature, wind and rain for your location and shows one of four levels: Atlet havası (tank-top weather), Hırka havası (cardigan weather), Mont havası (coat weather) or Bugün çıkma (stay in). It is built for iPhone and Android, the interface is in Turkish, and the core features are free. HIRKA+ costs €2.99/month or €19.99/year.

The default thresholds are 10° and 16° feels-like, and they shift with your "easily chilled" setting, how you get around and your feedback. How is cardigan weather calculated? · What to wear by temperature

Ready in three steps

Setup takes a minute. HIRKA learns the rest.

Share your location

We need to know where you are to translate the weather. An approximate location is enough.

Tank-top, cardigan or coat weather, or stay in. No number crunching on your side.

Does it not show degrees?

The home screen shows one sentence. The feels-like temperature sits in the details if you are curious, but the point is answering "what do I wear?".

How do you use my location?

Only for the forecast, using a rounded (approximate) location. Details are in the Privacy page. You can turn off location access any time in iOS or Android settings.

Where does the weather data come from?

Apple WeatherKit is the primary source, MET Norway the fallback. The app does not call them directly, data goes through the HIRKA server.
