Thank you. And it is a shame I had to scroll down this far in the comments for someone to point out the obvious. Even a weather app that uses "only" 250MB of RAM should never have been delivered by a semi professional software shop - 250MB is enough to store whatever they can display in full screen on a 5k display as a bitmap - 5 times.
It was the top comment for a few hours. Others have discussed why it makes sense for apple to ise 250 mb in a weather app (heavy graphics and animations). Someone did an audit on the app.
