INTRO:
If you have relatives in Australia, or your an expat, then you should know that there's only one reliable source for Australian Weather -> the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BOM). Your built in iPhone Weather App doesn't use this source, which is why Pocket Weather AU exists. We only have Australian Weather, but really, it's the best in the world, so what more do you need?
KEY FEATURES:
- Forecast & observation data for hundreds of areas around Australia. Select it via GPS, Map or list.
- Push current temp, text forecasts and warnings to your iPhone (NEW in 2.0)
- Tide graphs for hundreds of locations around Australia
- Animated weather icons
- Sunrise/sunset times
- National rain & cloud radars & Synoptic chart
- Extended forecasts for regional areas
- All of the BOM rain and wind doppler radars with Find/Track me function as well as the ability to have it auto update (Live Radar in settings, NEW in 2.0)
- Give your locations custom names (NEW in 2.0)
- Realtime UV support for some locations (NEW in 2.0)
- Shake to skin, simply shake your phone to switch between four different skins
- Last update is always cached, so you don't need a network connection to check the weather for the week, once you've got it once.
- Updates are tiny (less than 10kb) so you don't have to worry about your iPhone data cap.
- Supports landscape and portrait view, in landscape you get all the information on a single page.
