DryTime gives you a quick visual indicator of whether wet laundry will dry outdoors at your location:
| No! Get the laundry in | |
| Meh, unlikely to dry | |
| Should dry slowly | |
| Reasonable drying weather | |
| Good drying | |
| Awesome drying | |
| Desert incoming! |
The drying forecast is split hourly over the next 2 days based on your local weather forecast.
DryTime will automatically attempt to match your location and show it in the search bar, if your device allows it and you approve it to.
If not, enter your location in the search bar and press the search icon - you should then get your drying forecast.
Once located, your device should remember the location unless you choose to change it again.
Both, it's a web app. You won't find it in an app store, but you can add it to your homescreen on iPad/iPhone or Android as though it's a native app.
Yes. And no.
Drying is complex; the conditions for good drying are not always obvious from a weather report. High humidity and no wind can leave wet clothes stagnating even on a warm, sunny day.
Hence DryTime combines all of the factors needed to calculate drying ability and displays it at a glance.
Nope. It applies to almost anything you want to be drier than it was: packing down a tent, painting a shed, a lawn for mowing, a bathing towel at the beach etc...
No. Drying is complex. There is much we don't know: What your jumper is made of, how thick it is, what colour it is, how wet it is to start with... You get the picture. The best we aim to do is help you understand how good the drying is likely to be over the next 48 hours, the rest is down to you.
Ooohhhh yes, we've learnt a lot making this. Just not written them up yet. #soz
No, it uses maths and is designed to be incredibly lightweight. One use produces around 0.03g of CO2. Compare that to the average 1.8kg produced by one tumble drying cycle. If it helps stop one tumble drying session in even 50,000 uses, it's been a success in reducing carbon emissions.
