Introducing the 'Mango Edition'

Huge new v2 update - with loads of new features!

View the latest Australian Weather observations, forecasts, radars, tide predictions and more - with accurate data direct from the BOM (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - wrapped lovingly in a Metro themed UI.  Now you can say 'goodbye' to other Apps using innacurate and misleading US based weather sources.

Please note - this new version (and subsequent new releases) require that you are running the Windows Phone 7.5 'Mango' update (7720 or greater) - as it uses new Windows Phone 7.5 specific features.

If your phone is running an earlier os version - you will only be offered the previous (v1.7) version of the app by Windows Phone Marketplace. (and we recommend you update your phone's os via your Zune Client on your PC).

** Australia's #1 Top Selling Weather App in 2011 **

This brand NEW enhanced version for Mango users (aka AU Weather Pro 'Mango Edition') - has a completely revamped live tile and background agent system (allowing you to create and customize multiple primary/secondary flipping tiles with shortcuts into other locations in the app) - as well as a vast array of new features and UX enhancements.

Important Notes

This app uses your location services during setup (if you provide permission). Please see the privacy policy link/pages inside the App for more details.

This app uses your internet connection to access latest weather data (and requires that your connection be available when running it). If enabled - the background agent also will utilize your internet connection in order to download latest raw data (if you have configured live tiles).

Please Note : the trial version of this application will allow you to view limited or sample data only - and forecast ranges will be limited to 3 days only. All values/data will be made available upon full purchase.

 

*Note that some BOM stations may not provide all metadata.
