Backyard Weather vs Dashboard for ECOWITT Weather

**Personal Weather Station & Aviation Weather** Connect a PWS via Weather Underground, monitor aviation weather from any METAR airport, or track tides and coastal conditions from NOAA CO-OPS stations. **Three station types** • PWS — personal weather stations via Weather Underground • METAR — airport observations, updated every few minutes at most US airports • NOAA — tide gauges and coastal stations **Current conditions** Live readings with charts underneath, plus the record high, record low and average for today's date from your station's full archive. Up to 12 metrics depending on station type: temperature, feels like, humidity, wind, dew point, pressure, precipitation, UV, solar radiation, visibility, water temperature, and water level/tide. **Rich history charts** 1-day and 7-day charts you can drag to read exact values, times and wind direction. US airport stations fill in between the hourly reports, so today's line is a curve rather than 24 steps. **Alerts** Get notified when your station crosses a value you choose — a freeze, a gust, an inch of rain — or when it stops reporting altogether. Pressure drops, temperature swings and wind shifts are built in as ready-made rules. **Customisable units & display** 12- or 24-hour time, metric or imperial, and precision options for every number. **Color themes** Nine palettes for your charts and calendars. Preview any of them across every metric before you decide. **Widgets (Supporter)** Graph widgets for any metric over 1 or 7 days, a single-metric widget for one big number, a year-at-a-glance calendar, long-range history charts, a records widget, and Lock Screen complications. **Watch app (Supporter)** Temperature, feels like, humidity, wind, pressure and precipitation as watch complications, with every current metric and its graph in the app itself. **History & Records (Supporter)** Daily detail for any year your station has recorded — airports often reach back decades — plus all-time records, a record high and low for every calendar day, and yearly trends that overlay up to ten years on one chart. Free includes current conditions, 1-day and 7-day charts, one month of history, one alert per station, and three colour themes. Note: a Weather Underground API key is required for PWS stations. METAR and NOAA stations are free and need no API key. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Weathervane turns readings from your Ecowitt weather station into a clear, detailed dashboard for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. Free, with no ads and no account to create. Connect directly to your gateway on your home Wi-Fi, or use Ecowitt Cloud to check your stations from anywhere. Weathervane shows only the readings your station and sensors provide, with no empty sections for equipment you don't have. See temperature, humidity, dew point, feels like, pressure, wind, rainfall, solar radiation, UV, air quality, CO2, lightning, soil moisture, soil temperature and conductivity, leaf wetness, water leaks, distance and depth, battery levels, signal strength and more. APPLE WATCH Your station on your wrist, with complications for your watch face. Pick any of your stations right on the watch. With Ecowitt Cloud, the watch reads your station itself, so complications stay up to date even when your iPhone isn't nearby. ALERTS Get notified about the weather, your sensors and your devices: high and low temperatures, frost tonight, strong wind and gusts, rain starting and stopping, heavy rain, lightning nearby, falling pressure, humidity, air quality, a daily summary, sensors that stop reporting, low batteries, a station going offline and firmware updates. Set quiet hours so alerts wait until morning. WATER-LEAK ALARM With a WH55 leak sensor, Weathervane sounds a distinct rising alarm the moment water is detected, shows a red warning on your dashboard and watch, and tells you when it's dry again. HISTORY AND RECORDS Graphs from one hour to a month. Tap any graph to see the exact reading and time. The Records screen keeps your highs, lows and totals from today back to all-time. Export your data as a CSV file. FORECAST A 5-day forecast with a one-line summary and each day's chance of rain, plus sunrise, sunset and the moon phase. In the US, add a live radar map and the National Weather Service's written forecast for each day. FEATURES • Apple Watch app and complications • Weather, sensor and device alerts • Water-leak alarm • Live radar and written forecasts (US) • Siri and Shortcuts • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets • History graphs and Records • CSV export • "Compared to yesterday" notes • 3-hour pressure trend and outlook • Share a picture of current conditions • Two-column iPad layout with an expanded forecast • Multiple stations, with local and cloud support • Firmware update status for every device • Custom names and order for stations and sensors • Fahrenheit or Celsius, your choice of pressure, wind and rain units • Units that follow your region, with knots, m/s and metric distances • 12-hour or 24-hour time • Light and dark appearance • Demo mode, to try it without a station SUPPORTED HARDWARE Gateways: GW1100, GW1200, GW2000, GW3000, and the WittField WS6210 and WS6006 4G gateways.
