WillyWeather for Android
I have been using WillyWeather for years, having seen it start as s small unpopular website to now a modern reliable Weather Reporting Company. Having their data derived from BOM but show in a easy to use App is perfect!
First day I've used it and very impressed with the available data on the app. Huge amount of info for free. The only thing that is missing is a widget for android so i can quickly see the weather without going into the app.
Finally, a weather app that looks good AND does the job properly. The app has a simple interface and clean weather summary, but also provides details for when more info is needed. This has quickly become my go-to app for weather. One small suggestion; update the graphs. They provide good info but are from the original website and look dated.
Very inaccurate for the Gold Coast QLD. Been planning travel around the forcasts and it hasn't rained yet! With forcasts of 80-90% chance of rain all week and still nothing. Very poor forcasting!!!
Love the capabilities but it's a shame that app's UI is stuck in 2014. Also I want to remove ads but this option is greyed out.... and I am still seeing ads....
Wont open . It used to & it was good. Still works on my 10.1 tablet but suddenly refuses to open on my note 3 phone. Un install & reinstall same issue. Nothing
Ohh yeah this app gives all what the weather gods have in store for us ; can scroll maps for local / surrounding areas and interstate weather / warnings etc. Would like to see the inclusion of a lightning tracker ; sourcing info from BOM gives the edge over other apps i have tried ; am back with this app again . This app is the Ducks Nuts for everything need to know weather wise
Please add a Tide Clock widget! Years ago, you destroyed this clock feature on the websites phone version and the replacement still sucks. You can access the tide clock on main site when view desktop version of course but that's inconvenient. It's just JavaScript isn't it? It's already made, put it on phones already!
Brilliant layout of information on mobile ... I've used Willy Weather as my main weather source from my PC for years now ... and this app now extends the features to my mobile ... give the free version a try ... you will love it !!! ... in fact I purchased the app not because I need another weather app on my mobile ... nor are the ads in the free version anonnying ... but to support the app developers after providing me years of easy to access weather information
Good app... but the weather is very inaccurate, at least temperature. could be upto 7-8 degrees difference for my suburb (i.e. app vs actual).
Had a look at many weather and tide apps for boating. This app has more local locations than others. This has a great layout and also auto location. Happy to buy this product.
Seems to work really well great graphs good information Fantastic for an app that's free I think this is worth paying the developer for
Using on Xiaomi redmi note 3 and I couldn't be happier.Quick to load and great info. Better than BOM official app.
Awesome weather app. Has proven accurate more than a dozen times in the past 3 weeks. Particularly good is the wind information - great for my golf!
Why can't i change locations since the last update on my Samsung S5. I got a annoying uber add & lost location change settings. ..you idiots.
Temp is wrong / doesn't seem to update. Doesn't correspond to temp on graph which is correct. Other than that it is great.
This is an amazing app, I have paid version of weatherzone and it comes no where near this. Its simple and provides alot of detail.
I'd like to see weather history... e.g. Rain fall for the previous week and even ytd.
Just a blue screen know , reinstalled and no change. Please fix...
This app is very precise and easy to use! Fantastic you can remove the ads for an additional fee inside the app settings.
Having wind, tides and swell in one app suits me really well. Well presented and easy to interpret screens. Good job guys.
Just downliaded it and appears to have everything I need - moon, tides, wind direction and usual weather features. Loves nice too.
BOM data means it is the real thing, unlike some other apps.
Excelent app, but documentation is poor. I keep finding little surprises,things I didn,t realize that this app could do.
I have a huawei p9 and installed your app. When I open it, it just shows a loading symbol. Tried re installing it but no such luck fixing the bug. Please help thanks.
Probably only works 50% of the times I open it.
Uses BOM data but in clean, simple interface - perfect for mobile. I really like the chart interface and very clear indications of wind strength/direction, and the tide timetable. I think it's much easier to use than BOM.
I think you guys need to create an Android Widget because a lot of the weather widgets for Android are hopeless.
Fantastic app. Could you please add a widget and maybe in the widget add tides also?
Please make the rain forecast graph that is on the itunes willyweather app available on the google version.
The auto location isn't working. Need to search location which isn't helpful as I don't always know what location to put in.
Great app. A bit slow and needs a widget. But interface is great, and wind forecast is awesome. Thanks.
Great app, more accurate than the one that came with the phone. Would be nice if there was a widget so I didn't have to go into the app all the time.
Paid for a premium weather app but prefer this one.
One of the better weather apps. Simple visualisation that are easy to understand and interpret. This app is very good for beach towns.
This is the best app yet and I have tried most.
Not as good as the iPhone version - currently using on a Samsung A5
For some reason you can't see the Map of Australia
NOT the only weather app i need - where's the widget? This app had just about everything else you could possibly want. Very accurate too.

The location software picks the wrong weather station location. Eg my town is in the lockyer valley region of southeast queensland. Weather comes from gatton uq 20km away 20m elv below. With willy it pulls it from toowoomba 500m elivation above and 40k away and says im on the darling downs.wrong. And now at the same time. Its 29 deg c here not 23 like in like willy says.
