BOM Weather Pros
✓ Totally recommend itI started using this app in 2019. I got this app from a recommendation by my friends because the other apps aren’t always trustworthy. This app comes straight from the government and you can totally trust it. The only thing I would add is to make an app without internet. For example I went camping lately with no wifi. There was no service and I couldn’t see the weather. This really annoyed me because I needed to know if it was gonna rain or not. To see the weather I had to get in the car and drive like a long time which I obviously didn’t do. If it is possible please fix this. Even if it is just the temperature it would be great. 👍🏽 anyway this app is awesome and it is probably the app for weather no cap. So if you are looking for an app that tells you the true weather look no further, you’ve found it. 👏🏿.Version: 4.4.14
✓ It just gets betterMost weather agencies treat Past and Future as irreconcilable phenomena. Only statisticians are interested in predictions after the fact (well OK, we do want to gauge success). Until recently BOM gave us rainfall since 9 am. Now this ever evolving app reports the past 72 hrs of temperature and rainfall, along with radar (representing the present) and predictions for the next week. I find it invaluable, although I’m sure the bean-counters have a number..Version: 5.2.0
✓ BOM Weather Positive ReviewsBOM Weather Cons
✗ Wildly inaccurateETA: ohh I know what’s wrong, you have some suburbs reading off the kunanyi/Mt Wellington station. I feel like I shouldn’t have to tell a meteorologist that mountain weather is very different, even if it’s 12km away as the crow flies. Other nearby suburbs are more realistic so I’ve give some stars back, but it still leaves me struggling to trust readings for areas that I don’t know as well. I’m not sure what’s happened with this update but the temperature readings for my area are wildly inaccurate, in the order of a half dozen degrees colder than any other app (or my carefully calibrated feel-o-meter) would say the temperature was in my area. For instance right now other apps are telling me it’s around seven degrees, the BOM app is telling me -0.8 degrees. Can confirm no ice or frost yet developing on the dew on the car to indicate a sub zero temp and I wouldn’t say it would be under 5 degrees..Version: 3.0.1
✗ App always crash 😠Although it’s a great app showing weather of different locations in Australia, the app crashes at least several times daily on my iPad Pro, please fix this bug ASAP 😤.Version: 3.1.2
