In addition to these exciting new features, the WeatherRadar still displays cloud cover, lightning, and precipitation type, while the RainfallRadar offers a detailed view of precipitation intensity. Both views are zoomable and update automatically with your location. Our full precipitation type key is available inside our mobile app, with colors representing different weather conditions.

Split-screen mode is also available if your car display supports wide resolution, allowing you to see the weather while using your favorite navigation app. Here are additional setting features we added for a more personalized touch to your time on the road:

New customization options for a personalized experience:

Default Radar Setting: Choose your preferred radar layer to be displayed upon starting the app in your vehicle.

Map Scaling Options: Adjust the map scale for better visibility, with options for smaller or larger text.

Temperature and Wind Unit Adjustments: Tailor the temperature and wind unit displays to your preference (available for Android Automotive only).

And for Apple users, we haven’t forgotten about you – CarPlay integration is still in the works. We’re committed to bringing innovative solutions to all our users. We have lots of big ideas in store, so keep your eyes peeled and let us know what you think of these new features!
