Sync for Apple Watch
I love rain parrot, I’ve been using it on my iPhone for a couple of years now. Love it! I’ve just recently bought an Apple Watch and I’m having issues with syncing. It would be great if there was a sync button in the settings page. Also, would be great if the complications have an option to show ‘real feel’ temperature. Not sure if the complications show that already as I have not been able to sync Watch app yet.
Cheers all!

Allow me to see rain fall for other places
Would like to see the rainfall for other areas other that the one I am in.
With the bush fires I would like to know when they might be getting rain if any.12 votes -
Hail alert
Rain alerts are cool and handy but hail alerts could prevent damage to property enabling us to get our cars under cover. You could even get some funding from the insurance companies for this one potentially.

The tricky part is that getting this data accurately is difficult, but I would like to see it also

Storm direction indicator could rotate with compass to point in the direction of where the storm is coming from based on your location.

Differentiate between smoke and cloud
Just wondering if it is possible for the app to differentiate between smoke and cloud.
Today the app seems to show lots of rain in fire affected areas, which would be awesome, but it seems the app can’t differentiate between smoke and cloud.
I’m guessing this is hard to do...
2 votesWe’d really like to implement this too – I had a go at it during peak bushfire season, however it turns out it’s substantially more complex than first though, and getting some accurate data on what is a fire or not is also quite tricky.

Timestamp on radar images
Self-confessed weather nerd.
Loving the app but would love for a timestamp to be on the radar images if possible.Would make it easier to see how quickly various fronts are moving!
Thanks!

Location not accurate on weather map
It’s raining quite heavily over Dandenong. And the app says that it’s light rain overhead, where the weather map is 30km away from my location

Hourly rain percentage.
BOM has a hourly rain percentage underneath the time and icon for predicted weather, a paid app using the same source should also offer this.

The problem is that the radar is centred on the radar station, so by centring the map you will have to crop the radar – we can’t make up the data from no-where.
By moving the map, we’ll just expose an area of the map that the radar does not cover. So to do that, we need to then zoom in, or use data from another radar. If we zoom in, you don’t get more data, it will just get more blurred, and if try to use another radar, then there is a likely possibility that there is not coverage.
