As a pilot, the weather a few days from now doesn't matter as much as the weather Right Now. You need the current wind direction, at the nearest airfield, for the best runway. You need the current barometer reading for your altimeter. You need to know if the field is still VFR. And you need it fast. PilotAWOS puts the National Weather Service's automated observation stations on your wrist or your home screen. Instantly see the most recent reading from a nearby AWOS station. A Phone app if you use your phone on your panel, and a Watch app if you don't Has watch-face complications and phone widgets, settable to specific stations Works wherever you have data connectivity Data is fetched directly from the National Weather Service, without any intermediate backends or analytics collection. Your location is used only to locate nearby AWOS stations, and isn't tracked or recorded.
