Weather View
Comprehensive real-time weather at your fingertips — forecasts, radar, air quality, tidal data, and more.
Everything You Need to Know About the Weather
Weather View packs professional-grade meteorological data into a beautiful, easy-to-use interface.
Current Conditions
Real-time temperature, feels-like, humidity, pressure, visibility, and cloud cover — powered by WeatherAPI and OpenWeatherMap for continuously updated, accurate conditions.
Hourly Forecast
Scrollable hour-by-hour forecast with temperature, precipitation chance, wind speed, humidity, UV index, and cloud coverage.
7-Day Forecast
Full weekly outlook with daily high/low temperatures, precipitation probability, and detailed condition summaries.
Radar
Live weather radar powered by Leaflet and Mapbox with animated precipitation, cloud coverage, wind, pressure, and temperature layers, for real-time access to current weather conditions.
Wind Analysis
Detailed wind speed, direction, and gust data. Displays cardinal direction and visualizes wind patterns at your location. Smart controls automatically change their color and icon based on current conditions.
Air Quality & Pollen
Real-time AQI with PM2.5, PM10, ozone (O₃), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), and other pollutant breakdowns with health guidance. Also tracks 7 types of pollen — Hazel, Alder, Birch, Oak, Grass, Mugwort, and Ragweed.
Tidal Conditions
High and low tide predictions for coastal locations, displayed in-line with weather data for complete situational awareness.
* Terms and Conditions apply.
Astronomical Data
Sunrise, sunset, moonrise, moonset times, moon phase, and hourly solar radiation (GHI, Diffuse, DNI, and GTI) data — calculated with WeatherAPI and SunCalc for precision astronomical accuracy.
GPS Location
Automatic location detection with manual search fallback. Always shows weather for exactly where you are.
Light & Dark Mode
Fully adaptive light and dark themes that follow your system preference or can be toggled manually for comfort in any environment.

Instant Totals

Live Background Animations
A layered, weather-aware animation system that gives the app a living, breathing feel — all running smoothly at 60fps.
Four Gradient Layers
The background is composed of four independent animated LinearGradient layers stacked on top of each other, each cycling at different speeds (6s, 8s, and 10s loops) to create a smooth, non-repeating fluid effect.
Three Animated Wave Layers
Three wave panels sit above the gradient, each sweeping horizontally across the screen at different speeds (10s, 18s, and 20s) and vertical offsets, creating a gentle, rolling ocean-wave effect at the bottom of the screen.
Weather-Responsive Colors
The gradient palette shifts automatically based on current conditions — blues and teals for clear skies, deeper purples and grays for storms and overcast, warm ambers for sunrise and sunset conditions.
Light & Dark Adaptation
All animation colors adapt in real time when switching between light and dark mode. Light mode uses brighter, softer gradients; dark mode deepens the palette for a richer, more immersive atmosphere.
60fps Native Performance
Animations run on the native UI thread using React Native Reanimated's native driver, ensuring buttery-smooth 60fps performance without interfering with JavaScript logic or API calls.
User-Toggleable
Animations can be turned off in Settings for users who prefer a static background or want to conserve battery. Disabling animations instantly resets all layers to a clean, static state.

Privacy Policy
How Weather View collects, uses, and protects your information.
Overview
Ananti ("we," "our," or "us") operates the Weather View mobile application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have regarding your information. By downloading, installing, or using Weather View, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.
Effective Date: May 16, 2025 | Last Updated: May 16, 2025
Information We Collect
We collect information in the following categories when you use Weather View:
- Precise Location Data: With your explicit permission, we access your device's GPS coordinates to retrieve weather conditions, forecasts, air quality data, tidal information, radar overlays, and nearby events specific to your location. Location data is transmitted directly to our third-party weather and event data providers and is not stored on our own servers.
- Usage and Analytics Data: We collect anonymous, aggregated information about how you interact with the App — such as which features you use, session duration, and general navigation patterns. This data does not identify you personally and is used solely to improve App performance and user experience.
- Device and Technical Information: We may collect non-personal technical data including device type, operating system version, App version, language settings, and crash or error reports. This information helps us diagnose issues and maintain compatibility across devices.
- Advertising Identifiers: Weather View displays advertisements through Google AdMob. AdMob may collect your device's advertising identifier (IDFA on iOS, GAID on Android), IP address, and general location to deliver and measure the effectiveness of ads. This data is governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
- User-Generated Data: If you use features such as the Scheduled Events planner or Tip Calculator, any data you enter (such as event names or bill amounts) is stored locally on your device only and is never transmitted to our servers.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To provide accurate, real-time, location-based weather data, forecasts, radar, and related features
- To display nearby local events, attractions, and points of interest based on your location
- To serve relevant advertisements through Google AdMob to support the free availability of the App
- To monitor and improve App performance, fix bugs, and develop new features
- To diagnose technical issues and ensure compatibility across devices and operating system versions
- To comply with applicable legal obligations
Information Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party. We may share information only in the following circumstances:
- Service Providers: We share your location coordinates with OpenWeatherMap to retrieve weather data, and with Ticketmaster to retrieve nearby event listings. These providers receive only the information necessary to perform their functions and are prohibited from using it for any other purpose.
- Advertising Partners: Google AdMob receives advertising identifiers and general location data to serve and measure ads within the App. AdMob operates under its own privacy policy and terms of service.
- Analytics Providers: We use Firebase Analytics (Google) to collect anonymous usage statistics. Firebase does not receive information that directly identifies you.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required to do so by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Ananti, our users, or the public.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. You will be notified of any such change in ownership or control.
Data Retention
We retain analytics and diagnostic data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, typically no longer than 24 months. Location data is used in real time and is not stored by Ananti. User-generated data stored locally on your device (such as scheduled events) remains on your device until you delete it or uninstall the App.
Your Rights and Choices
- Location Permissions: You can grant or revoke location access at any time through your device's settings. Revoking location access will disable features that depend on GPS data.
- Advertising Opt-Out: You may opt out of personalized advertising by adjusting your device's privacy settings (Limit Ad Tracking on iOS, or Opt out of Ads Personalization on Android). You will still see ads, but they will not be personalized based on your interests.
- Analytics Opt-Out: You may opt out of Firebase Analytics data collection through your device's settings or by contacting us at the address below.
- Data Deletion: To request deletion of any personal data we may hold, contact us at the address below. We will respond within 30 days.
