About this app

Weawow is a free (and ad-free) weather app enhanced by beautiful weather-related photos taken by photographers around the world.
The photos reflect the current weather at your location, showing you whether it’s fair, cloudy, rainy, snowy, so you can decide whether you’ll need your umbrella or your sunglasses when you go out.
When you open the Weawow app, you’re likely to encounter unexpected "Wow" photos, rather than a boring, text-based forecast. And that’s not all: if you take "Wow" photos yourself, you can post your "Wow" photos from our Website. Then, we can integrate them into the app, where they’ll be seen by weather watchers all over the world (the app is available in over 50 languages).
The app’s layout is customizable, allowing you to select what to display like rain, wind gust, pressure, UV index, etc.
The Weawow is sustained by user donations. If you like the Weawow and want to support the Weawow project, please donate to us.
Of course, this is not mandatory, so please feel free to use the app.

Ratings and reviews

The visual is enticing. Change a setting and it updates without more interaction. Map drags around and pinch zooms easily. Live maps have great color and advance information for 7 days. Choose the weather service that closest matches your thermostat for outdoor Temps. I don't see any ads, either. It offers a persistent notification if wanted. Has AQI and sun rise/sunset with moon status. Layout can be altered.

I had it with Google Weather when it didn't forecast rainfall on a weekend in SoCal early summer. Wow is more accurate locally and is known for being in the top 5 accurate weather apps. It even has nice background graphics. All I want is hourly rain forecast so I can make plans. Bonus for having few to no ads and popups. That's all I want.

This is the best weather app I've tried yet. Excellent layout and options, gorgeous, detailed information, and no ads. I used to use Accuweather, which I very much liked, but gave it up when I discovered that some of their widgets were 'premium' features that you had to pay a monthly fee for. I'm okay with one-time fees and would gladly pay for this one.
