Overview

Features

Weawow is a free (and ad-free) weather app enhanced by beautiful weather-related photos taken by photographers around the world. The photos reflect the current weather at your location, showing you whether it’s fair, cloudy, rainy, snowy, so you can decide whether you’ll need your umbrella or your sunglasses when you go out. When you open the Weawow app, you’re likely to encounter unexpected "Wow" photos, rather than a boring, text-based forecast. And that’s not all: if you take "Wow" photos yourself, you can post your "Wow" photos from our Website. Then, we can integrate them into the app, where they’ll be seen by weather watchers all over the world (the app is available in over 50 languages). The app’s layout is customizable, allowing you to select what to display like rain, wind gust, pressure, UV index, etc. The Weawow is sustained by user donations. If you like the Weawow and want to support the Weawow project, please donate to us. Of course, this is not mandatory, so please feel free to use the app. WEATHER DATA

its easy, no nonsense, no ads, gives me all the information i want in a pretty interface. also its a very small team i think one guy, keep up the outstanding work. better than all the official weather apps with all the essential information like sunset, highs and lows, api, and more. its genuinely awesome and cute. i love the way the app opens up to a little graphic that changes based on the weather.

So far I love it! haven't quite figured out all the personalization features yet, but I figured out enough to make it visually appealing for me.. I switched because I just want the weather, that's it!, no adds or redirecting... thank you for making this app so I don't have to give my exact location unless I want to... also you can scroll across to your saved locations so you don't have to search every time, and the pictures/backgrounds are spectacular!

This is a very nice, ad free weather app!!! I like the photos, & the tranquility of checking the weather quickly without being slowed down by ads that get in the way and use my time when I don't always have it. The format is clear and well done, it's all well organized, the icons are easy to read at a glance, and the font size is readable without my glasses (I only use +1 readers). Definitely this is the best weather app for what I need it for!!! Thanks for providing it, & God bless you!!! 😊🙏

Absolutely THE BEST! After trying a few, and then using Weather Underground for a long time, I was tired of all the ads. WeaWow is THE ONLY one that is truly Ad Free! The accuracy of the information is always appreciated, because the others seem to blow things out of proportion. Weawow is FREE, accurate, dependable, and AD Free! You can't use another after this one. It's the BEST!

Really good weather app without all the bloated pop-ups and pay walls. I was tired of having to watch ad after ad to check the weather each day and this app has been great. You can just view what the weather is going to be, which shouldn't be such a strange concept for a weather app but for some reason they have become ridiculous with "purchase premium" and "watch an ad to see weather". Not this one though! I highly recommend checking it out!
