Amemil is an application that uses augmented reality (AR) and artificial intelligence (AI) to represent real-time rainfall information.

You can read the amount of rainfall by indicating the target direction. It can also play the sound of rain according to the intensity of the rain. - The "Satellite Eye" function allows you to view rainfall conditions across Japan, and by moving your iPhone, you can experience a realistic image as if you were looking at it from a satellite. - There is a demo mode that recreates heavy rainfall that has led to disasters in the past. - If you register as a member for 0.99 US dollars per month, you can use the rainfall forecast for the next 15 hours and GPS tracking mode. - You can post a video and image of the screen you are viewing with AR to SNS. If you post it, you can use the paid rainfall forecast and GPS tracking mode for 3 hours for free. * Support for widgets You can check the umbrella index, the rain forecast graph for the next 15 hours, and the weather radar map of the surrounding area on the home screen at any time. * Support for Siri shortcuts - Ask Siri, "What's the rain coming? and Amemil's AI will reply with the weather conditions in the area. * Support for Apple Watch - Rain radar is displayed on the map and a digital crown can be turned to see the forecast up to 60 minutes ahead. - Notifies you of approaching rain with animation. - Precipitation probability, satellite image, and precipitation forecast can be added to the watch face. * About Monthly Membership Price and duration of the monthly membership 0.99 US dollars / 1 month (counted from the date of application) / automatic monthly renewal You will be charged to your iTunes account. * Details of automatic renewal Your subscription will be automatically renewed unless you cancel the auto-renewal more than 24 hours before the end of your subscription period.
