Been Using This App for Many Years
I’ve been using this app for many years now and it is still my go-to weather forecast. I had a minor issue with my local station where BOM changed the site location. The developer was very quick in responding to my query and resolved the problem without hesitation. He corresponded with me cheerfully and made me feel as if I wasn’t wasting his time. Thanks

100% THE BEST weather app. Period. 💯👌🏻
*update* AR function STILL not fixed…😠😣
**original review**
Hands down this is the best weather app for Australia. I’ve had it for years (paid premium version) and although I’ve TRIED to find another that’s better, tried almost every available weather app. And NOTHING compares to this one. Not even BOM. Highly recommend, don’t bother with any others people! 💯👌🏻😂 My only prob is for maybe the last year after an update, on the radar, it won’t show my location with the blue pulsing circle when I tap on the little arrow like it used to. It, and the AR rain thingy no longer shows rain around me, even when it’s pouring! I miss these things so much!!!! Never bothered to mention it as I just love the app so much and didn’t want to deter any new users! Thankyou so much for such a wonderful, comprehensive, customisable, accurate app!!!! 😍😍😍🙏🏻🙏🏻😍😍😍

Very happy with purchase
I use Oz Weather pretty much every day to look at the forecast for the next few days and to check the current temperature. There are many other meteorological data features including links to the BOM site (oh sorry, the Buuureeeau) but I don’t tend to use them. I like the way you can see everything you need in the first screen and it’s easy to add other cities. Definitely the go-to weather app for Australian weather.

My best everyday app
Oz Weather is and has been one of my top three most used apps for more than ten years. My partner too. We use it frequently throughout each day. It is the most compelling 'must have app' if you have any interest at all in what the weather is doing or is about to do.
The information provided is accurate and reliable, sourced from the Australian Bureau of Meteorology agency. It is full of useful local and national weather information which is presented clearly and concisely in a very well thought out and functional interface (with many hidden uncluttered gems of useful information).
It has something for everyone, whether you are wondering: if you should sew that next crop today; or what’s the tide is doing to go fishing; or do you send the children off to school with their raincoats or wooly jumper and beanie? Not forgetting severe weather warnings - it’s all there in your pocket.
Proactive development is focused on continual improvement and quality, ensures timely updates align with new IOS functionality and security enhancements.
One great app, thank you ozPDA. 👏

Great app I depend on every day
Great, well designed app, shows me all I need to know in a smart, concise way (visual for week summary, text with further detail), plus radar, temp timings, wind, tides, various maps, and more. All straight from BOM, which very few others provide. And of those, in my opinion, this is clearly the most usable, with the cleanest, best interface. Plus support from the developer is exceptional.
We highly recommend this app (& often do recommend it to others).

Oz Weather is back! 😃
I seriously think I bought this app back in 2008. It’s been one of the most used apps on my phone for at least a decade. Nothing else comes close to the combination of simplicity *and* information density. It’s spectacularly good. When it almost went away I was devastated ... but it’s back. Happy days. Only complaint is that I’m grandfathered in to my decade-old payment. Let me subscribe! TAKE MY MONEY YOU FOOL. 😉

As good as they get!
I've been pestering the Developer for a long time over some minor issues with the old version of this App and happily to say this new version has addressed everything very nicely. With most everything you need now all on one page, it is simple and easy to use. Adding the tidal information was a great idea. There are squillions of weather apps in the Store but this one is now hard to beat. Has a couple of bugs but very minor nature only. Go get it!

Super accurate : Best information layout of any Weather App.
I have used this app for many years now and it is easily the best AU weather app out there for quickly seeing the forecast at a glance. The use of graphical layouts and colour to show the max/min temps really makes it easy to quickly glance and see the week ahead. Other apps just seem to display the data in numbers only. Graphs and colours really make this app shine. Apple Watch integration is awesome and seamless. I’m yet to find another weather app which displays exactly what you need to see for the next few days in such an easy to process, aesthetic way.
The Dev continues to release features great features without cluttering up the Interface like so many other apps do. Easily the best out there for AU weather needs.

No better weather app in Australia.
Oz Weather has been on my phone for a long time now. I have many other weather apps but this is the app I rely on and come back to, always. It outdoes the other apps both in at-a-glance and detailed weather, and the latter is unmatched.
The charts are simply mesmerising, and I often cross-reference what I feel outside with what the app is saying, e.g., a sudden increase in temp, the wind direction chart will tell the story.
It’s a beautifully laid out app with rich features and now with the new widget (the small one with the circles is just beautiful, please can we select a true-black background for it?) it sits with pride of place on my Home Screen.
