Whether you’re checking today’s forecast, monitoring severe storms, tracking weather while traveling, or planning a night under the stars, RainBot keeps you informed.
Personalized Dashboard with everything you need in one place.
View current conditions, hourly and 7-day forecasts, severe weather outlooks, environmental data, astronomy information, outdoor activity scores, and live weather insights from a clean, modern dashboard.
Precision Forecasts
RainBot retrieves forecast data using your exact GPS location, connecting directly to the National Weather Service forecast grid covering your location—not simply the nearest city.

• RainBot Daily Briefings
• Weather-Aware Summaries
• Hour-by-Hour Trends

RainBot 1.0.2 improves first-time setup, radar clarity, and reliability.
New Home Base setup lets RainBot keep working when GPS is unavailable or location permission is denied. Radar has been streamlined around a cleaner nationwide mosaic view while keeping key storm tools like SRV and CC. Location status is clearer, notification handling is more reliable, and several backend/security improvements were added to reduce duplicate alerts and improve stability.
Also includes interface polish across dashboard, settings, saved locations, onboarding, and the What’s New screen.
