Oz Radar Weather for Android
Nice simple basic app that works well and does what it says. It would be much more convenient if it were possible to quickly select range instead of going through the menu. Aus Rain Radar is more comprehensive and easier to navigate but crops the map to display other weather info and lacks a legend for rain intensity.
Not happy second time I have uninstalled to reinstall.not sure why but won't pick up yarrawonga. So uninstalling it again
Uses Bom radar but its much, much nicer. Shows your location. Simple but useful app that loads beautifully
Would be good if you could save GPS pointers on map so if you are in a different location you could see what is happening at your other saved location ie home when you are at work. Keep up the great work guys!
I use this app before every ride and sometimes mid ride to see if my chosen route is (or will be) wet. BMW R1200 GS
Terrible you cant even select a national radar
Suddenly no local radar.Wont load Melbourne.Only loads closest.Very sad about this previosly perfect app..please fix....
I have the latest version 2.25 and it is not updating my actual location - I have ticked the allow GPS to update location box in settings etc
Great app and works perfectly ,people complaining about wrong time need to realise the time is correct but shown in utc (universal coordinated time )not in Aust east daylight time.
I've tried other radar apps - this one is the best for me. No ads, works great. Can't ask for much more really!
Includes wind and recent rain also. A better UI would be nice - maybe sliding between ranges and the ability to link to BOM forecasts by clicking on locations?
I've had this app for a while now and refer to it constantly during the day. I basically plan my outings by this app. It's pretty much 100% accurate. Best Weather App by far. Be great if it had snow feature but now I'm being picky!
I changed the DPI setting on my phone. This is the only app on my phone that can't handle the change. Good app other than that but I have to delete it.
Was in need of an Australian radar weather app for my phone and decided to install this one from favourable reviews. Yes it gets it's information from the BOM but there's no problem there. This app is simple but delivers.
Has not worked since loading will not reload waste of time deleting it now
It's only a Radar I had one on my iPhone that had different tiles to show different cities weather as well as the radar this one doesn't even tell you what the temperature is
A first-rate app! Accurate weather map which is a must-have, particularly in S.E. Queensland during storm season.
I have been using this for a while now and it just works every time....No complaints at all....Cheers to the dev man
Update has removed 64km range which is what I prefer when trying to work out if storm will hit
Uses Bom radar but its much, much nicer. Shows your location. Simple but useful app that loads beautifully
Would be good if you could display local time at top or bottom of screen. Otherwise a great app
Great app, very useful on the farm. Needs to be updated now as Cairns has a 64km radar capabilities.
Great app and works perfectly ,people complaining about wrong time need to realise the time is correct but shown in utc (universal coordinated time )not in Aust east daylight time.
This is how apps should ALL be. (Working perfectly that is, not all doing the weather, ha ha).- Really useful. Very intuitive and hassle free. ... ... ... .I was using just a bookmark to the BOM radar on my browser..THIS IS SO MUCH EASIER..Keep up the bloody great work..or maybe don't even fiddle with it at all actually..as is will do me just fine.
The app has less features than the bom web site, no roads, no rivers, no land marks and it is stuck in portrait orientation. Everyone needs a more detailed map so they can find there location more accurately. And more controls wouldn't go astray.
Rubbish as of 16/05/15. Will not load near radar. In accurate waste of time
I hate this app because this app is meant to update its time everytime you tap onto a different location, time of day
No sydney airport read, keeps crashing. Poor res also. Application is not for me.
Loved this app on previous phone. New Android doesn't show GPS location. App version 2.25......running KitKat
Worked we'll but last few weeks just keeps asking to reload and nothing happens. Changed the range and still no good. Uninstalled. Android bad, iPod good.
Never loads my area just dont work like it did easier to just bookmark bom
Good looking app, and easy to use.
Like this app very much. Like the fact that if your local radar is down for maintenance it will go to the next closest. Brilliant!!.
Works fine, the blue numbers are wind speed, but are the offshore values Km/h or in knots
Please also update settings for Cairns and Weipa radars as they now have full suite of ranges and doppler wind. Keep up the great work.
I have really loved this app but I just not a new phone and no gps. I have installed it on other friends phones and they don't have any gps either. What's going on?

GPS not great. I work at redcliffe, it says I'm at redcliffe. Home to Brisbane, still says I'm at redcliffe.
