## What is WeatherRoam?

Plan your trip's weather day by day, before you go. WeatherRoam is a road-trip weather map: drop a pin on any destination and instantly see its forecast, your drive time to get there, and any active severe-weather alerts. Then build a multi-day trip and see the forecast for the day you will actually be at each stop.

Most weather apps show one city for today. WeatherRoam shows your whole journey, day by day.

PLAN EVERY DAY OF YOUR TRIP
Put your stops in order, set a start date, and give each stop a day of the trip. Every pin shows the forecast for the day you will be there, with numbered stops and a route line so your whole itinerary is clear at a glance. Drive times show each leg.

COMPARE FORECASTS SIDE BY SIDE
Drop pins on several destinations and compare their forecasts at once, on one map. Perfect for deciding between options or checking every stop on a route.

PLAN FROM ANY STARTING POINT
Heading out from somewhere other than home? Set any city as your trip's starting point instead of your current location, and every drive time recalculates from there.

KNOW YOUR DRIVE TIME, AND GET DIRECTIONS
Every stop shows the driving time for that leg. Tap it to open turn-by-turn directions in Apple Maps.

HOUR-BY-HOUR FORECAST
Tap any day to expand the hourly forecast and pick the best time to leave.

SEVERE WEATHER ALERTS
Live U.S. National Weather Service (NWS/NOAA) alerts appear right on the map, so you can route around storms, heat, and winter weather.

SHARE YOUR TRIP
Send your whole plan to whoever you are traveling with. They open the same map, with your stops, dates, and forecasts.

SAVE YOUR FAVORITE PLACES
Star the spots you check often, like home, the cabin, or the trailhead, and drop them all on the map with one tap.

SEARCH ANYWHERE
Search any city or place from the top bar to add it instantly.

WeatherRoam answers the questions every trip comes down to: what will the weather be at each stop on the day I am there, and how long to get between them?

We love to camper van, and it’s helpful to decide where we want to go. Especially on a short  last minute weekend getaway- can see where the best weather is for our planning, along with drive time! Don’t need to toggle from weather app to maps. Love it!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.9.8 — 2026-08-17

Alerts now follow your destination, not your device.

Severe weather alerts are grouped by the day it is at the stop they cover, so a warning for a place in another time zone no longer lands on the wrong day of your trip. Outside the US, alerts also name the region they were issued for.

Two smaller fixes: the sharing prompt no longer reappears after you leave the app and come back, and shared trip links open reliably when WeatherRoam is already running in the background.

### 1.9.6 — 2026-08-10

Two fixes, one for trips you plan and one for trips you share.

Reordering a stop now keeps your days in order. Moving a stop earlier moves its day with it, so your itinerary always reads in the order you will actually drive it.

Shared trip links open more reliably. If WeatherRoam was already open in the background, tapping a link could show an empty map instead of the trip. That is fixed.

### 1.9.5 — 2026-08-07

WeatherRoam now opens straight to the map.

There is no walkthrough to read first, and no location request before you have seen anything. Tap any spot or search for a city to get a forecast right away. WeatherRoam asks for your location only when you use something that needs it, such as centering the map on you or working out drive time from where you are.

Also in this release:

Forecast cards without a starting point now offer to add one, right where the drive time appears. Use your location or search for any city.

After your first forecast loads, WeatherRoam suggests adding a second destination so you can compare them side by side.

Shared trip links now draw the full route correctly when the app opens from closed.

### 1.9.3 — 2026-07-24

Trip-planning fixes: stops without a day assigned no longer draw into your route, and on-screen tips no longer overlap.

### 1.9.2 — 2026-07-17

A fresh new look: a road trip app icon and matching splash screen. Plus trip planning polish: cleaner compact pin cards while planning, drive times for every leg, and clearer forecast availability for far-out stops.
