Works fine
I use this app every day for my weather updates. Is it 100% accurate? No. The thing is though, the weather is unpredictable so 100% accuracy is unreasonable as a user experience. Therefore I treat the BOM as a great general guide instead.
Love it!
The BOM app is easy to use and generally correct.
Weather not
I live in the north west of Tasmania, I could honestly say this is the worst weather app I have had generally when I go to map it is ok some days, when the weather is bad it is always not working or under maintenance, and this is when u need it the most👎
So accurate
Always so accurate with rain and temperatures I really need to know about when I’m trading people outdoors as training and administration officer
At last!
Edit…
Thanks BOM for finally fixing that !%#@ing mismatch in time and display for QLD weather and the stupid 3-mode only display mode for iPads.
I know you had plenty on your to-do-list, so thank you 🙂
……
6th report (3rd update later) and the QUEENSLAND time is still wrong for horizontal displays for ‘today’ and ‘past’ page.
Rather important to the function of the app one would have thought?
Not surprising. BOM doesn’t read or respond to reviews anymore (last Dev response +2yrs ago!).
…..
Edit…
5th review after 2 updates and still no fix to BOM’s issue.
The TIME displayed for ‘today, tomorrow etc” horizontal menu for QLD is WRONG
One would think this would be deemed a significant problem, alas not so for BOM.
Ignored for 2 updates now.
*Feedback form on app is either ‘offline’ or simply ignored, as are these reviews - nobody is checking the AppStore reviews anymore. Shock!
I won’t be posting about this again.

I used to be a proud BOM supporter but it seems you’ve lost focus on the main objective - accurate weather forecasting. Now you obsess over unnecessary details in an app. Let those who love the weather minutiae find it on your web pages. De-clutter the app and maybe it will help you refocus. Good Feng shui I hear.

Radar often glitches
Weather
Excellent stats
Confidence
Can plan my day with BOM predictions.
Good
BOM is amazing but I wish it was a big cleaner and easier to use like Apple weather but I still use BOM because it is more reliable that Apple weather
Weather app
Tells the weather. Data from the bureau. Works.
Reliable
Every day I work outside and getting proper weather forecast is very crucial, BOM give hourly forecast with chance of rain with mm of rain making it ideal for me best app compared any other out there as long as you understand how to read
Mostly good
Accurate weather but need to improve Siri / widget / watch integration
Disappointed
70% of the time when it looks like rain is coming the BOM map says ‘there appears to be a problem (accessing map data)’ and a circle just turns and turns in the centre of the map. This has been going on for months.
My fave weather app!
Clear, comprehensive and easy to use. My fave weather app!
Easy and accurate
It is very easy to use. Very accurate. Very reliable. I love it.
The outside app
Reliable succinct and up to date, the BOM app is my go to for what’s happening outside.
BOM is awesome
The BOM is great.
