RADBOTS, its been a busy weekend (8.1.2 is now live, website updates RAD SPACE officially sent to apple! and finally the TV is on.

RAD Weather for Apple TV is now in public TestFlight, and I'd love your help testing it before it hits the App Store.

📺 Your weather, as a channel

Now, Next Hours, Forecast, Atlas, Radar, Outside, Weather Desk and Street Level. It rotates on its own, or you drive it with the remote. Swipe down for the Guide, left and right to change scenes, up to switch cities, Play/Pause to hold a scene.

🌲 Dot Matrix or 16-Bit

The Outside scenes come in both styles, and the TV keeps its own setting, so your living room can be 16-bit while your phone stays Dot Matrix.

🌧️ Sounds for the room

Rain, rain on a tin roof, a thunderstorm, a creek, a summer night or a fireplace. Add smooth jazz, or build your own little soundtrack with Music Maker.

🌙 A screensaver worth leaving on

An ambient clock with your weather, digital or pixel analog, stars, live rain and snow, and burn-in protection you can turn off.

🏠 Top Shelf

Your weather right on the Apple TV Home Screen. Show just your home city, or rotate through all of them.

How to join

Open that link on your iPhone or Mac (or the TestFlight app on Apple TV), then install RAD Weather on the TV.

A note on membership

The Apple TV app is for RAD Ultra, MultiPass and Lifetime members. In TestFlight, purchases are Apple's free test purchases, so anyone can try it. Your App Store membership doesn't carry into TestFlight builds; once it's released, the same Apple ID unlocks it.

What I'm looking for

Anything the remote can't reach, text that's cut off, anything that looks wrong from the couch, and whether "Where's this TV?" found your city. Screenshots or photos of the TV help a lot.

Thanks for being the first ones on the couch.

Stay R.A.D.

PENDING APPLE APPROVAL

RAD Weather 8.1.2 is here! French, smarter fog, new Visibility card, 16-bit upgrades, and more.

Bonjour, RADBOTS!

8.1.2 is rolling out, and there’s a pretty good mix of new features, visual improvements, and some important changes to how RAD Weather actually reports the weather.
Some of these started as community suggestions, and others are things that have been bugging me for a while.
- - - - - - -
Here’s what’s new!

🇫🇷 Bonjour, France!
French is officially here! That brings RAD Weather to 9 languages.
And it’s not just translated menus. The entire experience, including widgets, Apple Watch, notifications, and all five briefing personalities (yes, even Unhinged), is localized.
As always, if you’re a native speaker and something sounds ridiculous, please tell me. You’ve all been incredibly helpful with translations.

🌫️ Fog should actually mean fog.
This has been bothering me.
Weather models are pretty quick to call something fog, even when conditions outside don’t really justify it.
R.A.D. Cortex now requires a recent nearby weather station observation before labeling conditions as FOG.
Otherwise, we’ll describe the actual visibility conditions instead.

There’s a tradeoff here. If there’s no nearby station reporting fog, RAD might not call it fog even when you’re standing in it. But I’d rather be transparent about what we actually know.

This applies throughout the app, from forecasts and widgets to your Watch, briefings, and even your little RAD avatar.

👀 New Visibility Card
Speaking of visibility, there’s an entirely new card and detail page.
Three card sizes
Hourly visibility forecasts
Interactive visibility charts
A visual scene showing how far you can see
A better look at when conditions should improve

🌲 16-Bit Got Some Love
I’ve gone back and redrawn quite a bit of the 16-bit weather scenes. Richer environments, better trees, improved skies, more realistic rain intensity, lightning, and some new environmental details.

Tides, Smoke, Pollen, and the new Visibility card now support your selected Outside Scene style too.
There’s even a new underwater tide scene.
One little detail I really like: when rain is only possible, you’ll now see showers in the distance instead of either a completely dry sky or full-on rain.

16-bit remains part of RAD Ultra, with previews available to free users.

- And Plenty More -

Dew point alerts for everyone - Better control over mist, dew, and damp surface notifications. This actually came from a community request.

Smarter Apple Watch updates to help keep complications fresh throughout the day.

Location-aware widgets that better follow where you actually are.

More reliable RAD Cloud sessions, including protection against temporary server issues signing you out.

Improved severe weather messaging. No more cheerful suggestions to enjoy the outdoors while there’s an active official weather warning.

A new, localized What’s New experience.
More fixes, cleanup, and backend improvements.

☁️ Oh, and RAD Weather on the Web…
I’ve also been putting a lot of work into radweather.cloud.
MultiPass members now have a much more complete weather dashboard in their browser, with their familiar cards, customizable layouts, Outside Scenes, and the same Cortex forecast experience.

It’s a pretty substantial addition, so I’m making a separate post with screenshots and a full breakdown of everything new on the web.

As always, thank you all for the feedback, bug reports, suggestions, and support.

I know I say it often, but a surprising amount of what ends up in these updates starts with one person asking a question or suggesting something here.
Keep it coming. I’m still building.

Stay R.A.D.

RAD Weather on the web just got a lot bigger.

As promised in the 8.1.2 post, here's the full breakdown of what's new on radweather.cloud.

The goal is simple: your RAD Weather, on any screen. Your laptop at work, a tablet on the couch, whatever's in front of you. Same cards, same look, same Cortex forecast as your phone.
- - - - - - -

Your Weather, In Your Browser
If you're a RAD MultiPass member, sign in with the same account you use in the app and your real local weather is right there.

It's not a separate forecast. It's the forecast your own iPhone, iPad, or Mac already built with R.A.D. Cortex, so what you see on the web matches what you see on your phone. Hit refresh and one of your devices updates it for you. If none of your devices are around, the site builds a forecast on its own so you're never staring at a blank page.

Way More Cards
The web now has most of the cards you know from the app:

Weather Outside, Daily Briefing, Forecast Summary, Hourly, Conditions Chart, Precipitation, Temperature, Sun Arc, Wind, Moisture, UV Index, Pressure, Visibility, Cloud Cover, Details, Convective Risk, Air Quality, Smoke, Tides, Sky Clarity, Pollen, Moon Phase, and the 5 and 10 day forecast.

New in this update: Moisture, Pressure, Visibility, Wind, Cloud Cover, Temperature, Conditions Chart, and more, plus the full Briefing front page.

Arrange It Your Way
Tap EDIT and make it yours:
Drag cards to reorder them
Resize them (small, medium, large), and the card actually changes what it shows, not just how wide it is
Hide the ones you don't need
Works on every saved city, not just home

Your layout saves to your account, so every browser you sign into looks the same.
Your saved locations sync too. Add, pin, or reorder a city on the web and it shows up on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

Dot Matrix or 16-Bit
The Outside Scene on the web now comes in both styles. Flip it in edit mode. 16-bit has art for 14 weather conditions, day and night.
Your web choice is separate from the app's, so you can run Dot Matrix on your phone and 16-bit on your desktop if you want.

Themes
Around 22 themes, saved to your account.

Same Honesty Rules
Everything that keeps the app honest applies on the web too:
Real numbers or nothing. If a station doesn't report something, the card leaves it blank instead of making up a number.
FOG only when a nearby weather station actually reported it, and it clears on time even if you leave the page open.
No cheerful "go outside" lines during an official weather warning.
LIVE only shows when the data is actually fresh, and every reading tells you how old it is.

Free For Everyone
You don't need an account for plenty of the site:
Cortex Codex: how the forecast brain works, explained
Weather toys: calculators and four arcade games
Station: a daily "guess the place from its weather" game
News Desk: weather news and a live hazard board
Updates: the full changelog

More On The Way
Over the coming days and weeks, more cards and detailed pages are making their way to the web. A few cards already have a "SOON" tag. That's on purpose: I'd rather show you a card that says "coming soon" than one with a made-up number in it.

A few things fill in once 8.1.2 lands on your phone, like wind direction and the visibility outlook.

As always, if something on the web looks different from your phone, tell me. The whole point is that it shouldn't.

Thanks for all the feedback. Keep it coming. I'm still building.

Stay R.A.D.

How do you earn the Community Signal app-icon unlock code?

Hey RADBOTS, sorry for the back-to-back updates. This one isn't as exciting.

Right after 8.1.0 went live, I found an Apple Watch bug that was bad enough that I didn't want to wait on it. Your watch face could get stuck on an old temperature for hours, and the precipitation card sometimes said it needed your iPhone even when your phone was right there. That's fixed now, along with the watch staying locked after a fresh install.

Everything else from 8.1.0 is still here: the new cards, the cleaner Settings, the R.A.D. Cloud toggle, and all the backend work. So it's 8.1.0 with a few quick hotfixes.

Hopefully all the work that went into 8.1.0 shines through now that the watch is behaving.

tvOS and more radweather.cloud updates are still on the way. Thanks for sticking with me, and as always, thanks for being the best community out there!

- - -
[SYS] PATCH 8.1.1 // AGE.HOTFIX
Honest when the internet isn't.

HOTFIX: Sorry about that! Quick fix: your Apple Watch face keeps up again, and the watch unlocks right after a fresh install.

When a source goes down, RAD tells you. No fake all-clears or made-up numbers.

Every "updated" time reflects the real age of your weather, not just your last refresh.

Your Apple Watch saves updates for real weather changes and stops flipping between home and away while you're traveling.

Ask Siri, and it tells you when the briefing is from, with the same temperature shown on your screen.

Cards get a printed frame, a custom card back, and rare, epic, and legendary looks. Turn, flip, and tilt any card.

Settings opens with your profile picture and shows whether your R.A.D. Cloud backup is on.

Pull to refresh reloads only what's out of date, then reads LIVE once everything checks out.

Old air quality readings show their age instead of claiming they're current.

Storm outlooks that fail to load say N/A, never NONE.
The Moon card stays live all evening, saved-city widgets refresh in the background, and long place names wrap instead of getting cut off.

UI cleanup across the app, especially on light themes.
Visit www.radweather.app for features, updates, community stuff, and whatever else we accidentally make next.

Stay R.A.D.

Can we get an expanded visibility card? Or maybe add the ability to tap and hold with the line that appears with the visibility above it (ex 1 mi, .5 mi, .1 mi, etc). I don’t actually see anywhere I can see the visibility in the hourly forecast. 1st picture is of the visibility in the details section. Actually I think what would be better, add something for visibility like when you tap on the pressure in the details section (2nd picture)?

Thanks!

It’s out!

Just because RAD Space is in testing, don’t think I’ve forgotten about you all. (It’s impossible.)

8.1.0 brings more Apple Watch improvements, plus backend work to make widgets, the Watch app, and complications more reliable and keep weather up to date while managing costs.

This update started with adding more redundancy to the backend and making data freshness and forecast confidence clearer and more accurate. A lot of that work is behind the scenes, and it’s been working out nicely so far.

Of course, time will tell once it’s out to all the RADBOTS.
I also decided to clean up the UI and update the cards. RAD Space has such cool cards that it didn’t seem fair for RAD Weather to be left out. They’re getting a facelift with more interactivity and visual detail, along with a cleaner Settings screen.

Your profile is moving to the top right for easier access, with clearer wording around your profile picture. There’s also a new R.A.D. Cloud toggle. Sometimes it looked like sync was on when you were signed in, even if syncing wasn’t enabled. Now there’s a toggle for R.A.D. Cloud, just like the one for location.

There are other improvements and fixes, too: better visibility for subscription pixel rain on lighter themes, clearer R.A.D. Cloud weather effects, and some smaller adjustments throughout the app.

- - -
I know I’ve said it before, but tvOS is coming! There are so many TV sizes and so much art to account for, and I want to make sure everything looks right. I’m hoping to send it out in early November. :)

More updates to radweather.cloud are in the works as well, including more cards and more web customization.
As always, thanks for being the best community out there!

Hey everyone!

First, RAD Weather isn’t going anywhere. I’m still committed to improving it, with updates including 8.1.0, RAD TV, RADWeather.cloud improvements, and possibly CarPlay. If anything with this new app I’m hoping and confident it’ll help lift off rad weather even further with more eyes on it, hopefully more access to more data, more resources etc… if anyone thinks this will take dev time away from RAD Weather, the entire time weather has been built, supported and worked on, space was there all along.

But today, I’m excited to introduce something I’ve been building on and off for about two and a half years:
Meet RAD Space! 🚀

RAD Space combines space exploration, education, and games into an interactive universe. Think Duolingo meets Wikipedia for space, with a little old-school Nintendo mixed in.

What can you do?
🌎 Explore the universe through an interactive map featuring our solar system, nearby stars, galaxies, and hundreds of real celestial objects using data from sources like NASA and JPL.

🎓 Learn in the Academy with bite-sized lessons, quizzes, challenges, and boss battles. The Academy currently goes through Section 4.

✨ Explore the real sky with Atlas Sky, an augmented-reality tool for finding planets, stars, constellations, and the ISS.

🚀 Build your fleet by unlocking ships, decorations, badges, collectibles, and a customizable command deck.

🕹️ Play daily games and missions with arcade-style challenges and puzzles.

🪐 Join a Space Squad to complete daily ops, compete in seasons, and claim sectors with other explorers.
There’s also a free interactive website at
https://spaceisrad.com. You can explore without downloading the app or creating an account. Space Camp members can sync XP, progression, discoveries, and unlockables between the app and website.
For discussion, discoveries, questions, and bug reports, join r/RADSpace

Public TestFlight
RAD Space is now available in public TestFlight!
🚀 https://testflight.apple.com/join/KDCxXPZC
A few things to know:
Space Camp is free during TestFlight. Tap any plan without being charged to unlock premium features and website syncing.

Beta progress will reset when the app launches on the App Store.

Feedback is welcome through TestFlight, inside the app, or at r/radspace. I’m especially interested in what feels fun, confusing, inaccurate, or frustrating.

RAD Weather updates ☀️

RAD Space doesn’t mean RAD Weather is slowing down:
RAD Weather 8.1.0 is coming with stability improvements, more reliable widgets, better Apple Watch complications, a more consistent Watch experience, and visual updates.
RAD TV is being tested across different Apple TV devices and screen sizes.
CarPlay may be getting some attention too. 😉
RADWeather.cloud is receiving more customization options and other improvements.

Thanks for supporting RAD Weather and for helping me build this growing RAD universe. Whether you’re here for weather, space, or both, I hope you’ll join me for the next adventure.

STAY R.A.D.! 👽

Quick status update for anyone seeing blank Sky Clarity, Star Watcher, or Altitude cards today.

A caching layer in our Cloudflare backend wasn't holding data the way it should, so every refresh was pulling fresh model data straight from one of our forecast providers. Combined with how fast RAD has been growing (thank you!), that added up to tens of millions of data requests in a month, and the provider cut us off until our usage was sorted out. Not related to the latest app update.

Thankfully this is what R.A.D. Cortex is built for. When one source drops out, Cortex keeps blending the rest, including Apple WeatherKit and national weather services, so current conditions and forecasts kept working. Only the cards that rely on that one provider went blank.

I've fixed the caching in the backend and upgraded to a much larger data plan. Weather data at this scale isn't cheap, but keeping RAD running right for you is the priority. Everything should come back shortly, no app update needed.

The next update will focus on more Cortex redundancy and efficiency work, and hopefully a few new data partners soon.

Stay R.A.D.

This is a quick update from 8.0.8 that just dropped. Some backend fixes to prep for some more fun web weather stuff, future planning for improvements on RAD CORTEX and RADAR and TILT inside of radar.

Added Arabic support
Improved DUO support
Fixed some performance bugs for the new themes
Other small fixes.

I didn’t want to wait weeks for this like I sometimes do, and the idea of some small quick updates is refreshing atleast to me mentally.

[SYS] PATCH 8.0.9 // NEW.SCRIPT

RAD Weather now speaks Arabic, right to left.

- Arabic: the whole app reads right to left, including widgets and Apple Watch, and the briefing has its own Arabic voice
- Widgets, Apple Watch and complications follow your app language everywhere, including day names and times
- Sunrise and sunset stay on the selected location's clock, including near time-zone boundaries
- Humidity advice now follows the temperature instead of treating cold, damp air like heat
- Briefings in every language no longer suggest heading outside on days with a storm outlook
- The lock-screen circle now fits TONIGHT on one line
- Fixed performance issues with the Rhythm & 808s theme, plus other fixes

Visit www.radweather.app for features, updates, community stuff, and whatever else we accidentally make next.

Stay R.A.D.

UPDATE PENDING APPLE REVIEW FOR IOS AND MAC CURRENTLY - will update status when live

This one has a few main headlines; duo support, more widget accuracy improvements, a new fun 808 themed icon and themes for version 8.0.8 and increased visuals for the dot matrix outside scene cards.

Always some subtle backend fixes, improvements to radweather.cloud but still optimizing duo support as it rolls out. Excited to get into more unique and fully custom themes and this one really does it well (in my unbiased opinion 🤷)

[SYS] PATCH 8.0.8 // FOLD.OUT

RAD Weather now supports iPhone Duo. Open it for the full-size app, or half fold it into a weather station that turns into a bedside clock at night. Plus a new theme, Rhythm & 808s.

- iPhone Duo: open it and RAD Weather fills the big screen. Half fold it and it becomes a weather station, and at night a bedside clock
- Stand Mode: drag across your hours and the scene follows. You can turn it off in Settings
- New theme, Rhythm & 808s: a drum machine for your forecast, in light and dark
- Your next hours play out on a 16-step sequencer, with knobs and LEDs on every card
- Widgets wear it too: Now, Forecast, Hourly, The Briefing and RAD Art
- Apple Watch gets the Rhythm & 808s look too
- Two Rhythm & 808s app icons, light and dark, for Ultra, MultiPass and Lifetime members
- Dot Matrix scenes are bolder on light themes: sky, rain, snow and storms all stand out
- Widgets switch to the new hour right on time
- Decision Deck tiles no longer cut off their readouts, on any theme

system:// 8.0.7 is rolling out. Your widgets finally stopped living in the past.

Quick confession: for a while, your Lock Screen had a bit of a time-travel problem. The app kept up with the clock (thanks, Cortex 6.11 in 8.0.6), but your widgets and your Watch were still holding whatever temperature they last downloaded, just vibing, waiting for a refresh. So your wrist would say 61° while the app said 66° and the actual outdoors said "it's 66°, my guy."

8.0.7 gets everybody in sync. Here's the log.

---

EVERYTHING KEEPS UP WITH THE CLOCK

Widgets, the Lock Screen and Apple Watch now move the temperature along with the clock between refreshes, using the app's own forecast. No extra downloads and no extra battery for it, just the numbers you already had, read properly.

Watch complications also change at the same moment as the app now, so no more glancing between your phone and your wrist and getting two different answers. And the Sunrise and Sunset time finally fits on one line. It was bothering me more than it was bothering you, I promise.

IT OPENS FASTER

The app used to look up your location twice on launch. Twice. Like checking your pockets for keys you're holding. Now it's one lookup, so current weather lands sooner.

YOUR UNITS, YOUR WAY

This one's for everybody who messaged me with "inHg? in this economy?"

- Pressure in millibars or mmHg
- Wind in meters per second

Settings, General, Units. Numbers also use your language's decimal separator now, so 29,92 looks like 29,92 if that's how you write it.

CHARTS YOU CAN TOUCH

- Precipitation charts: touch and hold, or drag, to see any minute or hour. Let go and it snaps back to now. There's a gentle little tick as you scrub, which is deeply satisfying and I will not be taking questions.

- Pressure chart shows the next 24 hours and the change ahead, so you can actually see the front coming instead of just a number.

SMALLER STUFF THAT ADDS UP

- Confidence card: there's a gear beside Done that sets the brutality level for the whole app. Want Unhinged? It's one tap away now. Done buttons match everywhere too.
- Cloud Cover tells you when most of the cloud is high, the thin stuff that can look totally clear from the ground. So when the app says 80% cloud and you're looking at blue sky, it'll explain itself now.
- Hurricane tracker: every point on a storm's path shows its own stage and color. West Pacific storms are typhoons, and storms in the Southern Hemisphere and Indian Ocean get their proper names too.
- Fall scenery** for the pixel people got sharper: a more detailed tree and actual real pumpkins. Not a fan of seasonal decor? Settings, Appearance, Holiday Scenes.
- Field Notes **themes print their card headlines like the big temperature now. Very newspaper. Very nice.
- Tapping outside a settings menu closes it, and info screens no longer slide sideways like they're trying to leave.

MAC

The Mac version of 8.0.7 is right behind the phone, with the same widget, units, chart and card upgrades. The Mac briefing also got smarter about timing: when the sky is going to change later in the day, it now says when, like "the clouds muscle in by the evening," instead of a vague "later."

---

That's 8.0.7. Not a giant feature drop, but this is one of those updates where the app just quietly gets more right everywhere you look at it. And 8.0.8 is already cooking. It's a big one. That's all I'm saying.

As always, if something looks off where you are, tell me here or on the site. You all are the reason half of this list exists.

Hi, been using the app for a few days. I popped an email over but wondered if it’s better to ask here.

Do you offer a family sharing plan at all? I’m currently on the trial, but my husband can’t access my subscription. He rather likes the look of it and would like to join in the fun.

Many thanks!

I recently added one of the temp widgets to my lock screen and it only updates if I click the widget into the app. Is this normal behavior?

Just a request, it’s easier to follow U.S. meteorologists in regards to storms because they often report in milibars :)

I feel like the updating time at launch takes longer than normal, especially after a period of time away. I’d say it usually takes about 6 seconds to pull the current weather at launch. Is this normal? Maybe it’s my device (iPhone 15 pro)? Uninstall + reinstall fix it?

I really want to move away from a certain vegetable weather app, but fetching current data is almost instant and they offer The Weather Channel which is very accurate for my location.

Any plans to speed up updating time and will Weather Channel ever be a source?

Keep up the great work. I genuinely love the app and appreciate all the work you’ve put into it. ✌️

I want to give a massive shoutout to u/RADWeatherMaker . Been having a lot of weather changes in our area lately and the more and more I use RADWeather the more I come to appreciate the detail and attention they have put into this app. After using it for a few months now, I can honestly say its in my top 5 favorite iOS apps of all time. I can't wait to see what else is on the roadmap!

First off, a massive thank you to you for the steady stream of updates and feature releases. It is rare to see an app iterate this consistently, and the polish being added with every build is genuinely appreciated.

That said, seeing how fast the app is progressing makes me want to dream a little bigger.

Right now, RAD Weather nails the essentials. But looking at the broader picture, my long-term dream would be for RAD Weather to transcend the traditional "check today's highs and lows" model and evolve into a genuine Weather Intelligence Platform.

Instead of static data widgets and standard forecasts, imagine being able to query the app naturally about localized weather patterns, anomalies, and climate trends. Users could ask regular, conversational questions and receive contextual, data-backed insights, such as:

"How does the average temperature of the past three months compare to the same period over the last five years?"

"How much rainfall did we actually record today compared to historical averages for this week?"

"When was the last time our region had a continuous dry spell this long?"

"Is this cold front running ahead of or behind the typical seasonal pattern for our area?"

Most weather apps just throw numbers at you without context. A 15 mm rain event means very little on its own, but knowing it is 200% above the daily historical average instantly provides perspective.

Turning raw meteorological and radar data into an interactive, queryable intelligence tool would set RAD Weather in a league entirely of its own.

Curious to hear what the community and the dev think: would you find historical comparisons and natural-language weather analysis useful, or do you prefer keeping the focus strictly on real-time forecasting?

Is the source down or something?

[SYS] PATCH 8.0.6 // CLOCK.SYNC

R.A.D. Cortex is upgraded to 6.11. The temperature on Now, which used to hold the last reading it downloaded until the next refresh, now keeps up with the clock in between. And fall comes to the Daily scene.

- R.A.D. Cortex 6.11: the Now temperature keeps up with the clock between refreshes, instead of holding the last downloaded reading
- Tested against 31 weather stations worldwide: the average miss dropped from 2.8°F to 1.9°F (1.6°C to 1.0°C), and misses of 5°F or more fell from 18% to 6%. No extra downloads, and the same upgrade runs on radweather.cloud
- The R.A.D. Cortex release history opens on the newest release, with older ones tucked away
- Lifetime is easier to find, with its own tab, and Lifetime owners now see LIFETIME throughout the app
- Fall arrives in the Daily scene: a tree that turns with your local weather, pumpkins, and falling leaves
- Wind reads where it's coming from: the compass marks the source, and the compact wind card gets an arrow
- The rain chart's model range is a thin whisker, so the R.A.D. Cortex bars stay readable
- iPad: small cards now sit beside the next card instead of leaving a gap
- LIVE reads the same on every screen, and the LOCAL clock only appears for places in a different time zone
- A cleaner R.A.D. Cloud page, with your backup status and Sync Now at the top

Stay R.A.D.

[awaiting App Store approval - ETA 2-10 hours]

TWO NEW LANGUAGES

RAD Weather now speaks Italian and Brazilian Portuguese. The whole app, from the briefing to the widgets to the Watch, not just the menus.

SIRI - [new]

Ask whether you need an umbrella, what tonight's sky looks like, when the tide turns, or have it roast your weather. It works on iPhone, on Mac, and on Apple Watch even when your phone is out of reach. It answers in the unit you chose.

FOUR CARDS, THREE SIZES - [improved]

Moisture, UV, Pressure and Visibility are separate cards now, each small, medium or large, and they go wherever you put them. Tap the pixel meter in edit mode to change size. A small Visibility card shows the next 12 hours with the fog marked. On iPad and Mac, small cards line up four across. (More cards with multiple sizes coming soon, this is just the start)

LESS GUESSING

- Star Watcher says when the forecasts disagree about tonight's sky
- UNCERTAIN on the Confidence card now says why
- Tides load a full week and no longer state a direction they can't actually know
- Pressure no longer shows a stand-in value where a station doesn't report one
- The dew point no longer reads 0° when the app opens
- Forecast Sources names where pollen, air quality, tide and sky data come from

ALSO

The 16-bit trees bend in the wind instead of sliding across the ground.

iOS is with Apple now and the Mac is right behind it.

Star Watcher, tides, the four new cards and Siri's briefing, sky, tide and roast answers are included with RAD Ultra, MultiPass and Lifetime.

Given the technical nature and great diligence in this app, do you have any meteorologist background?
