What’s New in Version 5.1.2?
●We’ve remodeled the app like we inherited our grandmother’s house. Don’t worry, we kept the treasured heirlooms, but we threw out the corduroy sofa from 1953. Welcome to the future of Weather Underground on Android.
●Off to the left, you’ll find your navigation drawer, which is like your grandfather’s map collection but you’ll actually want to use it. Open the drawer to switch quickly between locations, manage and nickname your favorites, and look wistfully at the weather in the Bahamas.
●You used to be limited to one weather station per city. That was dumb. Now you can view and favorite any of our 180,000+ weather stations across the globe using the “Refine” map.
We’ve added a new Hurricane tile, because not all weather is nice. Track the weather that’s huffing and puffing before it blows your house down.
●There’s a new ad. It’s rectangular, doesn’t bite, and speaks more than a dozen different languages. We’d tap that.
●Now optimized for tablets... but it’s not about the size.
●Design updates a-go-go. You wanted Material Design? BAM. You wanted improved legibility? BOOM. You wanted to scroll all the way through the forecast without stopping for food or gas? YOU GOT IT.

WHAT MAKES THIS WEATHER APP DIFFERENT FROM OTHER APPS?
WE FILL IN THE GAPS
Our 180,000+ personal weather stations report the most localized weather conditions. The data that we collect from our user-owned weather stations fills in the gaps between the airport weather stations that other weather services rely upon to generate forecasts - meaning our data is generated from actual data points in your neighborhood.
INTERACTIVE WEATHER & RADAR MAP
The most interactive weather map (WunderMap) on mobile allows you to select from different weather overlays including current conditions, animated radar, satellite, webcams and severe weather. Customize the map by selecting specific data layers or choose from the various map presets such as severe alerts, fire risk, active fires, hurricane and webcams.
CROWD REPORTING
Sky reports let you tell us if the sky conditions we’re reporting are what you're actually observing. If you see something different you can report the conditions you're experiencing for the benefit of other app users. Hazard reports allow you to report any hazardous road conditions you experience to help other people in your area.

What's New
- - Now you can send pressure data directly from your phone’s barometer to help improve your hyper-local forecasts. You don’t NEED to, though. No pressure.
- Smart Forecasts also know about Air Pollution and can advise against running in the smog. We like to help avoid premature death and respiratory attacks.
- The radio tile was on its last legs – spotty signal and unreliable stations. We put it out of its misery. Why not listen to some podcasts instead?
- Fixed some bugs. Less crashing.
