## What is YAWA Canada?

YAWA Canada is a clean, fast, ad-free weather app built for Canadians — and for Canadians who travel.

ENVIRONMENT CANADA ALERTS
Be the first to know. Add Canadian cities to your favourites, then tap the notification bell to activate alerts. YAWA Canada monitors up to 3 favourite Canadian locations in the background and delivers Environment Canada weather alerts — snowfall warnings, fog advisories, special weather statements, and more — directly to your phone. Tap the notification and you're taken straight to that city's forecast.

RADAR
Watch the weather move. YAWA Canada includes animated radar playback powered by RainViewer, with pinch-to-zoom and pan support so you can focus on exactly what's coming your way. Smooth frame-by-frame playback shows you where precipitation is now and where it's been in the last 90 minutes.

7-DAY or 10-DAY FORECAST
Open-Meteo powers the forecast — a high-quality, open weather service used by developers worldwide. You get daily high/low temperatures, precipitation probability, wind, and a plain-language condition summary for every day of the week.

AIR QUALITY
YAWA Canada shows you the current US Air Quality Index alongside a plain-English description — Good, Moderate, Elevated — so you know what you're breathing without having to decode a number.

COMFORT & SUN
See how the air actually feels with the Feels Like temperature, dew point comfort summary, and humidity. Track sunrise and sunset times with a visual sun arc so you always know how much daylight is left.

WIDGETS
YAWA Canada includes Home Screen widgets in two sizes. The large widget shows your current temperature, condition, and high/low alongside an hourly forecast — everything you need at a glance without opening the app. The compact widget keeps it simple with just the current temperature and condition for your selected location.

TRAVELS WITH YOU
Add locations anywhere in Canada, the United States, or Mexico. YAWA Canada uses the same clean interface and real-time data no matter where you are — perfect for Canadians heading south for the winter or crossing the border for a road trip.

CLEAN BY DESIGN
- No ads, ever
- No subscriptions
- No account required
- Light and dark mode
- Supports multiple saved locations
- Background alert monitoring for up to 3 favourite Canadian cities

YAWA Canada is free because weather information should be. Built for Canadians, using open data sources — Open-Meteo for forecasts, Environment Canada GeoMet for alerts, and RainViewer for radar.

Simple. Honest. Canadian.
