SparkDrop vs Bravo Weather

We are always talking about the weather! Record your Rainfall & Snoop on your neighbours in the free SparkDrop App!

A new way to read the weather. Most weather apps give you one number and hide where it came from. Bravo gives you BravoCast, our own AI forecast, and every weather model behind it, so you can see whether they agree. BravoCast is Bravo's machine-learning weather model. It has learned from years of observed rainfall which forecast models to trust, where and when, and turns them into one answer for rain, temperature and wind, anywhere on earth. Behind it sit the world's major weather models, including ECMWF, GFS, ICON, GEM and JMA, with UKMO for Bravo Nerds. They run on different physics and different observations, and when they disagree, that disagreement is the most useful thing on the screen. Every model putting 15 mm on Thursday is worth planning around. Two of them is worth watching and nothing more. Bravo shows you which one you are looking at. WHAT YOU GET • BravoCast: Bravo's own AI forecast, the one answer on every screen and the first row on every grid • Home: today, the next ten days and how sure the forecast is, with every model's rain drawn hour by hour underneath • Every model side by side, each to the end of its own run — up to 16 days ahead — for any location on earth • Frost forecasts on the same models — overnight minimums and how many agree • A full-screen rain map from ten forecast models, with wind and pressure • Live rain radar on the map: the rain that is falling now, and the next hour • Wind, tides, swell, sun, moon and UV, each on its own screen with the answer first • The Big Picture: a plain-English briefing on what is actually driving your region's weather, not just what will fall • Rain and frost alerts on your own thresholds, by email and on your phone • Share the forecast as a picture: every model, every day, ready for Messages, WhatsApp or the family group chat • Your saved places on the home screen, one tap from their forecast • Widgets for your Home Screen and Lock Screen: the rain total for the days ahead and every model's number, at a glance FOR ANYONE WHO ACTS ON THE FORECAST If you are deciding whether to go, wait, or move something under cover, "60% chance of rain" is not an answer — knowing whether the models agree is. Bravo works anywhere in the world. FREE AND BRAVO NERD Home, the wind, tides, swell, sun, moon and UV screens, the rain map for the week ahead, live rain radar, search, the frost view and the first seven days of the model grid are free, with no account. Bravo Nerd adds the rest of every model's run (up to 16 days), which model says what on each day, the map's extra models (AIFS, AIGFS, ARPEGE and GRAPES) and the map past the first week, Compare on the map, rain and frost alerts, and the complete Big Picture briefing. Bravo Nerd is A$48 a year, with the first 14 days free for new subscribers. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period, and can be managed or cancelled in your App Store account settings at any time. ALERTS Set the amount of rain you are waiting for, how many models must agree, and how far ahead to look. Bravo checks once a day and tells you when your rule is met — once per weather event, not once per day. Every alert arrives by email, and you can switch on a notification for any individual alert to have it reach your phone as well. Frost alerts work the same way, with a threshold defaulting to +2 °C, because models publish screen temperature and the ground runs colder on the nights that matter.
