Only one issue. I changed in "settings" my units to Fahrenheit, inches, and mph. However there is no setting for pressure-units. (It's displaying hPa as opposed to in).

Also.. on the stations screen. It displays "Updated 31 Dec 1969 | 23:06 on 23 Sept 2011" (The 2nd part is correct however the first bit is not..)
Thanks for your comment - I discovered a bug once was released by Apple so I have submitted an update which should be available early next week.

"settings" - I am about to add in support for pressure inches and also kPa for Canadian users - this will come in next update.

The updated time displaying "31 Dec 1969" is an error I haven't incurred - I have just saved your woodbury station on my phone and seems to be fine. Please let me know if it is doing this for all stations or just woodbury and also your iPhone and iOS (E.G. iPhone 4 | iOS 4.3 etc).

Thanks again, Ben
The 31 Dec 1969 appears to be only for my station. Using the default station that's set in it does not display this.

I am also getting another error. I have to re-add my own station every time I start the app. (After closing, or rebooting my phone), it doesn't seem to stick.

I have an iPhone4 running iOS 4.3.3, Jailbroken (With exploit fixes from Cydia so 4.3.4 or 4.3.5 are not needed). Nothing radical done to it, simple jailbroken and a couple jailbroken apps, none that mess with permissions.

***EDIT***
Just updated to version 1.1. My station lists now save correctly, however the "1969" bug is still there.
Try again now - there was something strange happening with your timestamp in the realtime.txt file - should be OK after I made an alteration at my end.

Please let me know if not.

Thanks, Ben

I am very pleased with the app, I have found one bug it is when you go to the graph screen it sometimes crashes and goes back to the normal standby screen on my Iphone 3GS running the latest software 4.3.5

Once again Thank you for a good App.

Thanks Michael,

Yes that has happened once or twice - I think I have a solution so will hopefully fix that in the next update.
Also barometric pressure in inches & kPa to come for those that have been asking.

Appreciate the feedback.

Cheers, Ben

You are very welcome for the feedback, one other thing I forgot to say is. I have registered the App, is there away where you could make it so that it will remember the password instead of you typing it in every time you use the App.

Many Thanks

At the moment it will run in background mode - (if you have iOS 4 or later) without have to enter your password.

If the app crashes it will require you to re-enter your password - I'm working on fixing any crashes so this should't happen but I'll
work out a solution so it can remember you.

Thanks again, Ben

Thanks Ben,
When it is running in the background does it use up much battery/Data?

Many Thanks.

Hi,

I noticed on the Under the Weather website that an "Android" version is coming out soon,
any news when this will be likely to be?

Hi Mark,

Hoping 5-6 weeks and Android will be ready to go. Then onto the iPad specific version.

Thanks, Ben

Hi all,

Version 1.2 out now on the app store - fixed a few bugs / stability issues - added hPa, kPa & inches for barometric pressure.

Android version coming along - hopefully 6 weeks or so all going well.

As always open to feedback, queries, suggestions etc.

Thanks again, Ben

I submitted my station. How long does it usually take before it starts showing up in the App? And will I get a notification (via email) that my station is available?

Would also be nice if on your website you showed all the stations that are available in the app.
