The Weapon Bricky
Very helpful . I'm a bricklaying contractor and find the location service helpful on site. I have laid in excess of 1500 bricks on occasion but you need fine weather for that kind of production. Such is the speed in which I perform my trade, many doubt it possible for a single man trowel and one labourer to achieve 2000 bricks in just a day. But that's what one can achieve, with trowel skills and the right attitude, and of course the help of amazing apps like this one.

Glad to hear you like the app. I look forward to a bit of free advertising one day when you make the news for your bricklaying skills and attribute some of your success to such a great app!

I’ve loved this app for many years for its beautifully clean and uncluttered interface. The map and “nearest” views are also super handy. The recent major BoM website update broke the app temporarily but the dev was straight onto it releasing an update quickly. Absolutely my favourite Aussie radar app!

I thoroughly appreciate the rain radar app. It informs me when there is rain about making planning easier. Especially if I am attending an event outdoors. Also if I have washing on the line how long before I need to bring it in. Thank you
