About WillyWeather
YOUR LOCAL WEATHER SERVICE
WillyWeather organises the world's weather data into the most valuable local information. The app includes radar, satellite, detailed wind, rain, tide, swell and UV forecasts, as well as moon phases, and sunrise and sunset times.
Going beyond the average weather service, we process and fine-tune forecast data to the specific coordinates of thousands of locations including all suburbs, towns, beaches, rivers, parks, lakes and islands.
WEATHER DATA
• WEATHER - Seven-day BoM weather forecasts tailored to each location including min/max temperatures, and detailed weather descriptions.
• RADAR - Raw BoM radar data, refined, processed and integrated with iOS maps.
• SATELLITE - National satellite view, displaying cloud cover for the entire Australian continent integrated with iOS maps.
• TIDES - The most comprehensive tide times system in Australia, bringing together BoM standard port data with offsets from the Australian National Tide Tables and various state-based marine agencies. Includes every beach in Australia, and many river systems and inlets.
• WIND - An amalgamation of the most accurate global wind forecast models gathered from the BoM, NOAA, and ECMWF, interpolated to the exact coordinates for each location and vetted against real-time wind observations to deliver the best performing information.
• UV - Hourly UV index forecasts, including alerts outlining extreme conditions when there is risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.
• MOON PHASES - Full moon and new moon phases, illumination and rise and set times. Deeply integrated with tidal data.
• RAINFALL - Intuitive visual indication of rainfall probability and intensity for the week ahead, using the latest ACCESS models provided by the BoM.
• SWELL - Swell height, period and direction for each beach in Australia.
• SUNRISE SUNSET - Sunrise and sunset times with first light and last light.
• REAL TIME observational data - with trends for all locations including current temperature, feels-like temperature, rain today, rain last hour, humidity, pressure, wind speed, wind direction, wind gusts and dew point.
• BOM WARNINGS - Easily accessible and specifically targeted to the locations affected.
FEATURES
• Interactive rainfall radar and satellite, using iOS maps: pan and zoom like you've always wanted through the national BoM radar network, and continental satellite view to see exactly where rain is falling around you, or your favourite locations. Our mapping features provide more control, and more detail than any other Australian weather source.
• Stunning, interactive tide, swell, and wind forecast graphs, which allow you to easily understand the conditions at your favourite surf beach, secret fishing spot or upcoming hike - in real-time, and up to seven days in the future. We're particularly proud of our graphs, we pushed the boundaries to provide you with more context, and more detail for each weather type.
• A beautiful, simple and organised interface in w

Big update, this one. The headline is Layers: interactive weather maps built right into the app.
NEW
• Layers. Satellite, wind, wind gust, swell, rainfall, UV and more, opening framed to your location. Pins you drop sync across your devices.
• Offline forecasts for WillyWeather Plus subscribers. No internet? Your most recent forecast is still there.
• The live cam map now has a button to get back to the camera list.
FASTER & SMOOTHER
• The forecast shows as soon as it loads instead of waiting on maps and cameras. On a slow connection this can save a good 10-20 seconds.
• If your connection is struggling, you'll get a retry option after a few seconds, not an endless spinner.
• We also cut CPU usage, fixed memory leaks, and stopped GPS from draining your battery in the background.
• Skip back or forward on a cam, and you'll now see how far you jumped.
FIXED
• Duplicate severe weather warning notifications.
• Rain alerts open the map at the alert location, even if you've travelled away from it.
• Current wind conditions disappeared in calm or variable winds.
• The Sun forecast was blank at far-northern spots like Anchorage.
• Moon widgets showed the wrong image during the waxing gibbous phase.
• The River Level graph showed yesterday's data after midnight, and didn't resize when you rotated an iPad.
• Swell and Tides screens could go blank or wrongly report "no data".
• Wind and swell graphs lost hourly detail on the 3 and 5 day views.
• Stale dates and the occasional freeze after the app sat in the background for a long time.
• Brief error flashes on first launch and when switching countries.
• The custom default graph refreshes as soon as you reset or enable it.
• Pinch-zooming the map no longer drops an accidental pin.
• Changing country in Settings now takes you to location selection like it should.
• Apple Watch: complications that stopped updating, clipped pressure values on small faces, and hourly complications showing a logo placeholder.
• Free users could get stuck on an endless loading screen while offline.
WillyWeather now requires iOS 16 or later. Layers needs iOS 17.
