Aeroweather lite android8/28/2023 ![]() Define multiple alerts for each station with the following criteria: flight rule (US NOAA), wind speed, temperature, pressure, present weather, visibility, and ceiling (BKN and OVC). METAR alert notifications** is an helpful feature to stay up-to-date. Depending on your needs, groups can be shown or hidden in the main list view. AeroWeather Lite offers built-in groups for nearby stations, today widget (pre iOS 14), and earthquakes. The app features a built-in airport database, which includes basic airport data like sunrise/sunset, twilight times, timezones etc. There are many settings for units and format of METAR/TAF available. All weather data is cached for offline access. Disappointed to see where this app has gone.ĪeroWeather Lite is helpful for weather preflight-briefings, but also to just get very precise weather. The developer should seriously reconsider how they have this app structured and realign their priorities. As a certificated private pilot, I don’t trust this app for any serious flight planning only for the anecdotal “quick look” at data. The app has always been buggy with multiple crashes, antiqued data at times, and features that wouldn’t work. It seems like the focus these days is on subscription gain versus a coherent package and solid product. The features section conflicts between the App Store and what’s listed in app, so you can’t tell with 100% certainty what you’ll get if you shell out the cash. Dark mode integration and bug fixes are considered “recurring costs” now? I think not. Had the Pro version without any subscriptions and now with this latest update, the Pro app was taken away with an expectation to re-purchase a subscription to enable features like “dark mode.” The developer says they need to cover recurring costs.
