Comments on BOM Weather for Android

★★★★★ Bridget Behan · Jul 16, 2026

Experience is always improving. Would be great to see current weather of places in the sidebar and favorites to be used as a great comparison tool of how current weather affects local areas

★★★★☆ Tina yvonne · Aug 2, 2026

Please fix the 24°. Good app. The date on each daily forecast would help. A more detailed moon phase, rise and set, would be good.

★★★★☆ Patrick Sparks · Jun 18, 2026

Great service, improved accuracy since the "good old days". We need a radar in Port Lincoln. Adelaide weather generally comes from the west and Eyre Peninsula has no rain radar.

★★★★★ Mark Handy · Aug 2, 2026

Easy to use. Great to be able to see the weather in other areas before travelling there

★★★★☆ Margaret McLAREN · Jun 11, 2026

I find the BOM Weather site useful and mostly reliable and accurate. Like all systems, you need to use it regularly in order to use it effectively.

★☆☆☆☆ Rod Lamont · Jul 7, 2026

What the heck has happened to this app? I used to be able to see the weather for where I am, but now it wants Wi-Fi scanning! Stupid idea. Just use the GPS eh.

★☆☆☆☆ Joel · Jul 31, 2026

Literally never accurate, as I write this review im standing undercover out of the rain as the radar says no rain at all today. Just utterly useless.

★☆☆☆☆ Harry Nelson · Jun 23, 2026

it's been months and no improvement to the widgets to bring them back to par with the old ones no weekly forecast widget just useless hourly forecast which is pointless for most users. This isn't rocket science they are supposed to be made better not worse clear case of enshitification. Just do better BoM sorry I mean The Bureau 🕵️

★☆☆☆☆ Grant Markowski · Jun 7, 2026

The mobile widget is a great idea, only it never ever displays the current temperature until you go into and out of the widget, so you may as well just open the full app-Easter of $90m. The frequency of update is obviously too slow. I'm just going to remove my two widgets as they offer no additional information value if the information is already wrong/old.
