The AcuRite Iris Direct-to-Wi-Fi Display (06100MA1) is an indoor console for the Iris 5-in-1 outdoor sensor, which it does not include. It reads indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity, heat index, dew point, barometric pressure, wind speed and direction, and rainfall, with daily highs and lows and a 12-hour forecast. Its advantage over older Iris consoles is built-in 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi: it sends readings straight to the AcuRite NOW app and Alexa without a separate hub. Owners like the large, auto-dimming display and the hub-free setup, but the 3.9 rating reflects complaints about Wi-Fi dropouts, app reliability and the sensor being sold separately.

Owners of the Iris system generally like the big, clear display and the convenience of hub-free Wi-Fi to the app. The common complaints are dropped Wi-Fi connections, a finicky app and the extra cost of the sensor.
This is a Wi-Fi display for the AcuRite Iris (5-in-1) weather sensor, model 06100MA1. The sensor is sold separately. Use the display to replace an existing display, add one in another room, or connect an existing Iris sensor to the AcuRite NOW app.
The display shows indoor and outdoor temperature with a trend arrow, indoor and outdoor humidity, heat index, dew point, and barometric pressure with a trend arrow. It also shows wind speed and direction, max wind, daily highs and lows, and enhanced rainfall history. A hyperlocal forecast covers 12 hours from current conditions. It does not show lightning data.
It connects to 2.4 GHz home Wi-Fi and sends data directly to the AcuRite NOW app, so no separate hub is needed. It works with Amazon Alexa through the app. The large font is readable from almost any angle, and the brightness dims automatically.
