Two months after out for iPhone, Weather4D (¹), by surprising Olivier Bouyssou, arrives with a version fully optimized for iPad, with the modest release number 1.1.
This single iPhone/iPad version is therefore a simple free update for the lucky buyers of the version 1.0.
And yet, what work it took to adapt and optimize this 3D application, both iPhone screens and memory capacities 3 and 4 than those of iPads 1 and 2, known to be very different !
We discover a lot of new products in this version :
iPhone and iPad :
- Displaying pression contours, with spacing allows to be set (to 1 down to 10 mb)

- Adjustable tilted display by high and low double tops (arrows on iPad)
- Variable scroll by increments from 3 hours. down to 12 h. Double-taps left and right (arrows on iPad)
- Calendar display by TAP on the clock, A TAP on the date of the day brings back to the current time
- Cumulative display of pictograms and wind vectors
- Animation speed adjustment, to 25% down to 400%, by lateral shift from the finger under the clock (in time)
- Automatic update of GRIB files after modification of parameters
iPad :
- Standard display tool banner, with time scrolling cursor and permanent access to the calendar, settings and help, including animation
- Full-screen mode with clock and same buttons as iPhone view
- High-resolution display
Standard display, Area access, calendar, Help and settings

Firmly supported by a team of hard testers that he was not allowed respite, Olivier offers us an application that always has a good step ahead of competing applications. More over, even before its release, This work was already hailed by the nautical press (²).
But as he is not guy to be satisfied with his result, he has already working to a PRO version and some ideas of additional functions for the current version. No rest for the artist !

Well here I am back, easier internet access, So I download the new version and I must say that I am pleasantly surprised. A little disappointed at the start by the first version, there … Only one thing to say : Bravo. A pro version ? I look forward now, with a question : But what will she bring more ? As for Martinique, unless, There is only to create the desired area to have the weather in Martinique or elsewhere.

I bought it and am a little disappointed. No one tells you in advance that it does not cover the Antilles.
