Look up, not down.
RainHUD turns your iPhone or iPad camera into a weather instrument. Point it at the sky to place radar, wind, storm threats, projected paths, and official warning boundaries in the world around you. RainHUD Pro adds Super-Res NOAA radar and 3D NEXRAD volume detail.
SELECT WHAT'S APPROACHING
Tap a supported storm cell to inspect intensity, altitude, bearing, distance, motion, estimated arrival, source and confidence. Sources and uncertainty stay visible; stale motion and ETA disappear.
WARNINGS IN CONTEXT
Official National Weather Service warning polygons appear beside the radar and storm layers. Hail, wind, rotation, tornado indications, lightning, satellite clouds, official NWS Local Storm Reports, and community observations add context as available for your tier.
SCRUB FROM HISTORY TO FORECAST
Free includes current and past public radar, 18 hourly NOAA HRRR forecast frames rendered on your device, and a 14-day Daily Forecast: seven official NWS days plus seven clearly labeled NOAA GFS days. Pro adds a 90-minute nowcast in 5-minute steps, an 18-hour forecast in 30-minute steps, and an hourly HRRR tail toward the model's 48-hour horizon. WeatherBrain adds outcome-trained rain-chance guidance.
STORM WATCH WHILE YOUR PHONE IS DOWN
Free optional notifications include high-impact NWS alerts, nearby community reports, and on-device barometric Storm Watch indications that can work without an internet connection. Set hazard filters and quiet hours. Pro adds radar-based approaching-storm updates with estimated arrival, direction, and distance, plus tornado indications when supported.
COMMUNITY GROUND TRUTH
Report the weather you see, optionally add photo evidence, and follow your Reporter Journey from Witness through Reliable, Grounded, and Honorable ranks. Community reports remain distinct from official sources.
A HEADING YOU CAN TRUST
The compass reads your device's heading sensor only — AR tracking stabilizes placement but never rewrites your heading. The overlay recovers cleanly as you move and always shows its alignment status.
EXPLORE, SHARE, AND USE APPLE WATCH
Preview supported locations around the world in AR, with up to three saved travel locations on Free and unlimited locations on Pro. Share a weather location and portable AR setup through a RainHUD link. The included Apple Watch app lets you submit reports, review your report history and rank, manage Watch alerts, sync Pro access and alert choices with iPhone, and open RainHUD from a complication.

RainHUD™ provides weather context only and is not an emergency alert system, certified weather instrument, or a replacement for official warnings. Always follow Wireless Emergency Alerts, NWS warnings, and local instructions.
