## METAR Widgets Description
What better way to keep abreast of current conditions than with a beautiful METAR widget, right on your home screen? 

Although these widgets look simple, they’ve been carefully designed and built to give you the most important information at a glance, while meshing seamlessly with iOS17’s features and design language.

Here are a few of the things that make these widgets special:

THEMES
Choose a subtle theme that looks right at home on your iPhone or iPad, or a more bold and colorful theme that catches your eye more effectively.

SMART…
Each widget can figure out what weather factors to display. Generally, special weather conditions (e.g. rain, show, haze, smoke, tornadoes) take precedence, followed by any conditions that caused the current flight condition, like low cloud bases or limited visibility. Wind is always visible.

… OR NOT
Alternatively, you can use the “Retro” theme to display raw METAR text and practice your interpretation skills (great for exam prep). Protip - put both widget types in a Stack (drag one on top of the other), so you can flip between them!

REALTIME
All METAR widgets update in realtime, in the background. You can force a refresh anytime by simply launching the app.

DARK MODE
Widgets seamlessly follow the system-wide light/dark mode setting, which means they’ll be easier on your eyes once the sun goes down. Also, all colors across the app and widgets have been tuned to reduce eye strain when viewing in low-light conditions.

FULL METAR VIEW
Tap on any widget to launch the app and view the full details. Here, you can also toggle between visual and text modes.

SAVE YOUR FAVORITE STATIONS
You can save and manage your favorite stations in the app, which makes it even faster to set up a new widget.



Thanks for reading this far! I’m an experienced software developer and a new PPL, and I built this while learning to fly in a J-3 cub. All proceeds will go to tailwheel time, and any feedback/reviews are much appreciated!

## METAR Widgets Reviews in United States

### ****- "Lock Screen/at a glance support?"
Really cool little app. I would really like to be able to add the widget to the lock screen and or the at a glance screen not just my home screen.
-- Gogators81, 2024-08-26

### ***** "Exactly what you need"
Great app. Nice and clean interface but would love to see the possibility of D-ATIS integration
-- RyanRoberts15, 2024-04-24

### ****- "Great!"
Great! I do wish there was a lock screen widget as well. I will update to 5 stars if one comes
-- Sebastian and Dev, 2024-03-13

### **--- "Cool looking app, but missing some airfields"
Since the app is available international, should probably mention where the information is taken from since only after I downloaded and paid realized my local airfields (Colombia) are not available.
-- LCardArb, 2024-02-24

### ***** "Update update: App is working great"
Good app! Made sure to update iPhone and app and everything is working again.
-- Scotchandtieguy, 2023-11-01

### *---- "Stopped working, developer unresponsive"
Stopped working about two weeks ago, developer has not replied to contact via email or Apple… consider it abandoned
-- Candylad, 2023-10-25

### ****- "Great app. You should add a Lock Screen Screen widget"
I hope there are plans to add a Lock Screen widget as well for the new iOS.
-- Nick. F, 2022-11-25

### ***-- "Does the job, needs an update"
Great lightweight app that does what it says. The UI and UX are well done and look leaps and bounds better than the competition.

However, this app haven’t been updated in a year. I’d love to see integration with iOS 16 Lock Screen widgets. In addition, D-ATIS would be a massive upgrade if implemented for airports that support it.
-- thingerprint, 2022-10-31

### ****- "Great app could use a few features"
Would it be possible  in a future update to get F scales and A few more customizable scale options? Great displays and intuitive UI design. Overall great.
-- bigred326, 2022-09-05

### ***** "Great app!!!"
I love quick access to my things on my phone and this app as a widget is so awesome. It looks great on my phone screen and you can add a bunch of airports!
-- lannappi13, 2022-01-28

### ***** "Nothing in aviation is cheap"
Except this app. Wow. Kudos to the dev. My airport and all surrounding airports work great. Simple to set up. I would pay $30 for this app now that I know how well it works. So cool. Thanks!!!
-- Mikoo231, 2021-12-10

### ***** "Exactly what it should be"
Slick UI, hopefully you get stuck waiting for winds to calm often so you can add TAF in detailed view.
-- Debriter, 2021-10-30

### ***** "Simple and effective"
Nice, simple app with thoughtful design touches that gives VFR pilots an at-a-glance answer to the question “Can I fly today?” Costs less than half a gallon of 100LL. Perfect.
-- cshbell, 2021-10-13

### ***** "Saves a Lot of Time"
Love using this app to quickly scan METARS from across my state on a dedicated iPad homepage. I use the color coded widgets on the iPad to view lots of airports at a glance, and the plain text widgets on my iPhone for my home airport.

Sure I could just pull up ForeFlight, but the widgets looks really cool and keep my weather interpretation sharp.
-- JakeDoesReviews, 2021-10-08

### ****- "Missing Runway Wind"
Would be a significantly improved app if the wind indicator showed the wind compared to each runway at the airport.
-- EricStegemann, 2021-09-29

### *---- "Widget doesn’t work."
It only lets me see the METAR when I open the app there is no option for me to set it up on my Home Screen. Am I missing something? When I go to the widgets section on my iPad it doesn’t show up there.
-- California_Raised, 2021-05-26

### **--- "Needs simple updates!"
Love the look and idea, but there are two fundamental issues that make this app/widget functional:

1. Only airports starting with “K” can be added. Adding airports like “I69” doesn’t seem to work. 
2. The widget doesn’t update regularly. Most time the widget displays old information and you have to open the app to see the updated METAR.

If both of these bugs were fixed this would be a 5-start purchase, but not worth your time in its current form.
-- Jegs25, 2021-03-15

### ****- "A little pricey for what you get but otherwise works like you’d expect"
Current aviation student and I love having the METAR on my phone screen easily accessible. 

The only things I’d like to see are easy access to the TAF (maybe if you tap on the widget and it brings you to the app) and maybe an option for a wide widget as well (some of those METARs are pretty long). 

Otherwise the app works great and would definitely recommend.
-- QubeKnight, 2021-02-19

### ***** "Works perfectly..."
Great easy to use at a glance widget...but I’m imaging a widget with that little wind direction circle filled in with a runway graphic.  That would make it next level and worth a bump in price!  $1.99 is already too cheap for something so handy!
-- tenneck, 2020-12-30

### ***** "Trouble with Widgets"
The app is working fine. But I can’t seem to add widgets.

Updated! Got it to work! Great working tool!
-- Zakcolorblind, 2020-12-16
