Weather Perfect - BOM Radar

With so many weather apps around it's been difficult to find one to match up to Pocket Weather (rip). Weather Perfect has the potential to become its equal. The design is clean, simple and pleasing on the eye. The recent addition of the Watch app is a plus and is also stylish. Having BOM data is great for Aussie users. I have gladly subscribed for the year to help support the app. Thanks to the developer. Looking forward to more features in the near future. A watch complication would be greatly appreciated. More stars to come. Glenn UPDATE: Another 🌟 added for watch complication! Thanks David

This is a sorely needed successor to Pocket Weather. Navigating the app is quite different to most other weather apps and it takes a little getting used to if you have multiple locations, but it has some very nice advantages, especially being able to pull up the full HD weather map at any given time. The UI is very polished and quite beautiful. It has great typography and iconography and it utilises negative space well, all of the data has room to breathe, unlike many weather apps. It has minimal and sensible use of graphs and controls, it gets out of your way and lets you read the data you need. I’m happy to pay a subscription for such a well designed app that most importantly uses BOM data, hopefully this subscription model is sustainable long-term. A few improvements would be to allow a some more UI customisation, for example, having a more subtle colour mode that doesn’t reflect the current temperature. And Rain notifications for your current location - that would replace Rain Parrot for many people and would probably increase adoption of Perfect. Kudos for also having a feature voting system in-app!

Took me awhile to find “round units” in the settings to turn it off, despite it being a very clear and simple setting. But that’s just me :) now I can see it’s 41.7°C Anyway the app is super fast and clean, has the info I need, and is actually designed nicely to be enjoyable. The app also has a voting feature where users and pick what future features they’d like to get attention. Fantastic! Worth paying the small premium subscription for. Remember that BOM charge 3rd parties to use their data, one reason why Pocket Weather and other weather apps have gone away. If you want a great weather app to survive in Australia, I think this is it - try it yourself and support the app if you like it.

After the shutdown of PocketWeather I’ve been trying so many different weather apps but I feel like Weather Perfect is the best replacement I’ve found. The interface is beautiful - very clean and modern without clutter. I really enjoy the nice subtle transition animations between screens. It uses BOM data so it’s accurate. While other apps may include more information I feel this app includes a good balance of the most useful data and honestly I haven’t noticed anything absent that I’m missing. I’ve been using it daily for a couple of weeks now and have decided to subscribe.

Love the UI on this weather app. Clean and easy to use. There are quite a number of features I would love to see added in future updates. Such as hourly times on the line graph with wind speed, more times at the bottom of the Rain, Wind and UV graphs and a setting option to place the ‘Conditions’ info above the ‘This Week’ info. The yearly subscription of $15 per year is quite high, but I understand BoM data does not come cheap. A great replacement for Pocket Weather. Great early release.
