A major update for Weather Pilot is now available on the Google Play Store, introducing advanced flight planning workflows, enhanced station search, and visual improvements.

Key Updates

• Advanced Briefing Mode: Features workflow tab templates (Departure, Enroute, Destination, Alternates) with tab duplication, tab-aware weather summaries sorted by severity, and quick jump-back navigation to METAR/TAF views.
• Enhanced Station Search: Implemented a local station index for faster lookups. You can now search by name, ICAO, or IATA identifier, use mixed input formats when adding stations, and scroll through search results larger than five stations.
• Light & Dark Themes: Added full support for light and dark modes to improve visibility during night operations or low-light conditions.
• Offline API Fallback: The app now automatically falls back to locally cached station data if the station info API endpoint becomes unavailable.

The update is now live and available for download. Thank you for flying with Weather Pilot.

Safe flying.

Fixed TAF format display bug.

Weather Pilot 3.0 has been released. This was a complete rewrite of the application to bring it up to latest standards in security and technology. Updates will continue to roll out for the application as feature parity is matched with the previous version and new functionality is added.

Fixed search location retrieval bug.

Users may experience issues where ads start to appear on their app even though they have paid for an ad-free subscription. I apologize for this. I am working on an update to resolve the issue but due to other commitments I am unsure when this update will go out. If you start seeing ads but have paid to have them removed please contact support through the app.

I’m looking into the problem where METAR and TAF data isn’t downloading.

UPDATE: 23 Sept 2021
Data issues are resolved.
