Introducing Weathercloud Beta 6.9
Today we are happy to announce the release of Weathercloud Beta 6.9! In this new version we’re introducing quite a few upgrades aimed at further improving user-friendliness throughout the site, in addition to a number of bug fixes. Let’s see what’s new:
- Enhanced picture and webcam management.
- Added the ability to add up to 5 different webcams instead of just 1.
- Added the ability to change the weather station manufacturer and model at any time by the user.
- Added the ability to change the link type (software) used to upload data at any time by the user.
- Added the ability to change the username at any time by the user.
- Added the ability to send the URL of a specific station via email through the redesigned Share menu on the station Profile page.
- Added solar and UV radiation to all Fine Offset stations compatible with these sensors.
- Gauges now turn grey individually if a specific variable is not updated.
- Added linking instructions for all the remaining supported weather software, including Meteobridge, WeatherTracker, WeatherCat, WxSolution and MeteoStar.
- Updated the FAQ page with new useful information.
- Redesigned the whole landing page.
- Fixed an issue that caused the text “NaN” to be displayed in the Reports.
- Fixed the lack of consistency in the way decimals are shown in the Reports.
- Fixed some language issues reported by users.
We hope these new features will make your user experience even better.
And there’s even more, because today we are also glad to introduce our new advanced real-time data dashboards, which show both the current weather and the forecast for your specific location, including the 7-day forecast and the wind forecast for the next 12 hours. This information is especially important for marinas, yacht clubs and windsurf spots. The new dashboards are currently under test and will be included in the upcoming Business accounts. You can see a real example by visiting this link and then clicking on the monitor icon.
The new data dashboards are fully responsive and automatically adapt to any screen size:
Last but not least, we are also completing the development of the first version of the Weathercloud app for iOS and Android devices, which will be available soon for download. We regret the delay since we know you are eager to try it out, but sometimes being a small team and working on several fronts at once does have its drawbacks. Below we show a couple exclusive images of the app to help make the wait shorter for you:
Thank you for your support and stay tuned for more to come!
Will the new Dashboards be open to all or just business accounts?
Hi Mark, thank you for your interest. The new advanced dashboards will be available for all business accounts. Any user user of the network will be able to upgrade at any time.
I have tried to register and get activation email. It says it is sent, but not in my inbox or spam/junk folder. I check my address and it is correct. Any ideas?
Hi Jac, we have activated your user account and you can now log in to the site with your credentials.
Do you have any update on the release on the iOS and Android apps?
Hi Richard, we are still working on the Weathercloud app for mobiles devices. We will let you know as soon as it is available for download. Thank you for your patience.
Any further updates on this? I cannot find in the App Store to download yet?
Hi Ben, the Weathercloud app is still in development. Once it is available for download, we will announce it on our blog and social media. Thank you for your patience.
Hi Weathercloud,
I am a Web and application Test Manager and Senior QA Analyst, and can help test your beta software if you wish. Used to downloading and installing android and iOS apps via crashlytics and the iOS equivalent, and my day job is testing software like BigChange.com, which has web, android and iOS hosted apps. Perfectly used to using msTeams, Azure, Jira, etc and interfacing with dev teams & QA & customers.
Been in testing for 20+ years now, and recently succumbed to the demise of python2.7 and weather underground, making my python based pywws almost a historic relic if it hadn’t been for finding your good selves! Looking forward to what you guys seem to aiming for!
Thanks, and keep up the good work, hope I can be of use in due course. It has been a while since installing apk on android by hand or an iOS app, so I would probably need a hand to get that part done, but happy to help if I can prior to a formal release, even if it’s just on a beta channel or customer panel?
Kindest regards,
David

Hola Pedro, el panel meteorológico avanzado está incluido en el plan Business.
news for the app on Android?
Hi Marco,
The Weathercloud app for mobile devices is in our plans and will be launched for sure despite the delay.
Of course, we are aware about the expectation around the app but sadly enough we will not be able to make It happen within the time frame initially scheduled.
Being a very small team has good things but is also challenging as we have to work on several fronts at once with limited resources.
We will keep you posted.
Thank you very much for your patience.
