Leave a Review AeroWeather Pro
Horrible
I paid for the pro version of this app years ago, and the entire time the watch complication has been a buggy mess. As other reviewers have noted the complication doesn’t show anything when you first install it, and requires some magical combination of force touch and hacks to get it to finally display the weather. Sometimes it won’t display anything for day until it decides to start showing weather.
To make matters worse the developer, instead of fixing bugs, has now rolled out additional features that require an in app purchase (even if you already paid for the “pro” version). Maybe it’s time to fix problems instead of coming up with ways to scam more cash from your users.Show lessiLikeSlurpees
Developer Response
I explain in detail (in the app store and web-site) why the additional features are available as part of a subscription. They cost me recurring money to provide (for the most of data itself and the server infrastructure to process and deliver them). Plus it also costs time to develop these features as well.Used to be Great
Upgraded to Pro two years ago after using the basic app for years. This used to be a simple, easy and succinct app. As they have upgraded it they have added ads and in app purchases - now with subscriptions. It’s now another greedy app demanding more $$ just for simple functions. Don’t waste your time on this one. I’m really disappointed in the evolution of this once solid flying app.Show lessreccedrvr
Most useful weather app
I fly for a living and I use this App more than any other app on my phone! Love it! Quick, easy to use and accurate. I’ve sent the developer several questions over the years, and he is always quick to respond to my questions or issues!
I know of several other pilots at my company who use this app as well. If it consistently holds up to the rigors of a professional environment, what more can you ask?

Great Aviation Weather App
This is a great tool for checking METARs and TAFs. I use my EFB for more in depth analysis, but in a few seconds I can open AeroWeather and see what the weather is like along a route or at airports nearby. It’s a must have app for any pilots!
This app was missing weather for one of my local airports and the team responded to my request within a day to let me know it would be added in the next release. Great app and great support!Show lesssomedudeintn
Intuitive, Functional App
Without AeroWeather Pro, the processes in Canada for obtaining and assessing airport Notams is an exercise in frustration. We must deal with duplicates, and notams for surrounding airports that have no significance.
Thankfully AeroWeather Pro allows one to filter the notams and disregard frivolous information such as runway centreline lighting outages and edge lighting notams when the runway itself is closed for construction.Show lessJomewa
Great app that always improves
As a professional pilot, this is my “go to” app for weather planning. I especially like the airport diagram that shows wind components by METAR/TAF intervals, and runway approaches for determining destination and alternate mins.
Has consistently improved and delivered more and more info over the many years I’ve used this app. If I could only look at one weather source, this would be it.Show lessDm md234
Excellent App
I am an airline pilot working in China, this app pro version has been indispensable to me for getting timely accurate weather. works perfectly every-time and updates regularly. Support response is quick and helpful. Highly recommend this app.chinaflyer
Great app for aviation
I upgraded from the lite a few months ago after a having the lite for years and was pleasantly surprised.
Nice app and I like the integration with Apple Watch. It’s very helpful.
It’s irritating to have so many things to buy. It’s like the MyRadar which is super annoying. I’d rather pay one fee and get it all but I understand catering to different needs.
The Apple Watch loading was super slow and I’m glad it was updated. I’d like to see the Apple Watch app be independent of the iPhone so you can check weather without the phone being around. I’d also like to see NOTAMS grouped as a list (all stations) or instead of having to go to each airport. Also, is there a way to add winds aloft near your airport?
Thanks for your hard work on this app.
===21 Oct Update===
Apple Watch metar update is so slow it’s unusable. It doesn’t update when you hit refresh and it refreshes about once a day if any. I’ve reset both phone and watch and reinstalled on watch. The previous update was much better even though it was 2-3 hours between updates. Please fix.
==22 Oct Update==
Quick response, or maybe I was too quick with the updates. Apple Watch METAR now updates when you hit refresh and updates by itself around 1-2 hours. The display symbol instead of text does not work on the Apple Watch 4. It is always the symbol even though the complication overview shows VFR.Show lessiVision
Best watch app for pilots!
I have been using this for app for a while and the watch complication is perfect for checking weather at my airport. Still needs work on selecting airports. The app has a place to select airports for the watch but it still requires setup on the watch. Using series 2 and iPhone 8. I barely use the app anymore just glance at my watch. I would rate as a 5 if better instructions on getting the complication to work were available.Show lessSocaltilt
Newest update fixes issues
I have had lots of trouble in the past with the watch app and the widget. Usually everything breaks after an update, but the latest update fixed everything! Glad to be finally able to use the watch app!tmpage
