StationWeather - METAR and TAF

One of the best weather apps for VFR pilots. Based on official Metar/Taf information. But in a very clear 'decoded' and visible attractive form.

Most recent app update seems to have killed Home Screen widgets’ ability to refresh their info. Still a great app, just hobbled a bit by lackluster widgets.

This app is what I have been using for recent METAR data since I started my flight training and have used it since. It has been amazing until recently when every time I try to see the airport elevation its is showing “0”. Besides the elevation being wrong it also messes up the pressure and density altitudes. If there is a fix for this or if any devs can help that would be great as I really do love this app and have been subscribed for the past year.

Good things: there are no ads, and the user interface is aesthetically pleasing, more so than the competitor app AeroWeather Pro. Unfortunately, I feel this app tries way too hard to nudge me into subscribing. The very first time I downloaded the app I was immediately shoved a modal dialog to accept a free trial, and when I dismissed this dialog, a different subscription with a free trial was offered. Then all throughout the user interface there are places where you can be swept into the subscription signup flow. Below your list of airports, in the settings, when you tap on certain icons on a map. At least let me look thru the app in peace the first time I open it, and maybe down the road I’d be glad to check out the pro features. And of course they make you pay to use ANY widget functionality at all. I would consider paying for this app but I’d like to just buy it and not have to keep opening my wallet up every so often. Guess you can’t do that! What’s to prevent the price from sneakily being raised before my next renewal date, like the scams run by so many newspapers these days?

Specifically with the info graph watch face, I like to have the local winds show on the sun dial top position and it’s now allowing me to click my sundial right app (which is my stop watch for procedure turns) I’d like this to be evaluated please. Also, I get weather reports of zero wind a lot. I work at my home airport, and have access to the AWOS. I know the winds aren’t zero. Please look into this.

Very useful app! But the “limited offer” doesn’t allow to use the free version without subscription. The button “dismiss” doesn’t work… Is it permanent or temporary?

I’ve used the app for almost a year now and it’s been great, but with the latest update it’s become incredibly user-unfriendly. I can’t set the airport I want to see on the iPhone lock screen widget, the information is never up to date, constantly having to refresh… what happened??

Simple, and accurate. Has great information,and I love the widget feature

This is hands down the best aviation app on the market (in any category). I use the iPhone app and widgets before every flight for an immediate and easy look at all the airports around me. Even while flying the Apple Watch app is a huge time savor to get a quick glance at the weather (reported ceilings, winds, & pressure) before landing. Don’t waste another moment, subscribe to the annual pro membership and don’t look back!

So sadly this doesn’t work very well (almost not usable) on the cellular Apple Watch without the iPhone tethered to it, if I have my iPhone on me anyways it easier to just look on foreflight, so there’s not much of a use for this app, Windh seems to do the same thing but actually works on the Apple Watch when it’s solo, as does NRST for frequencies and a heading and decent rate to the nearest field. On a good note, the GUI is kinda slick
