Two months after out for iPhone, Weather4D (¹), by surprising Olivier Bouyssou, comes with a fully optimized version for iPad, with the modest release number 1.1.
This unique version iPhone / iPad is a simple free upgrade for the lucky purchasers of version 1.0.
And yet, what work it took to adjust and optimize the 3D application, both screens and memory capabilities of iPhone 3 up to 4 than those of the iPad 1 up to 2, known to be very different !
We discover many new features in this version :
iPhone and iPad :
- Displaying pression contours, with spacing allows to be set (by 1 at 10 mb)
- Pressure display in 3D
- Viewing angle adjustable with double-taps up and down (arrows iPad)
- Variable scroll by increments from 3 hours. at 12 h. Double-taps left and right (arrows iPad)
- Display calendar by tapping on the clock, a tap on the current date back to current time
- Display pictograms and cumulative wind vectors
- Setting the animation speed, by 25% at 400%, lateral sliding a finger under the clock (Weather Mode)
- AutoUpdate GRIB files after changing settings
iPad :
- Banner tools to standard view, slider with time and permanent access to the calendar, settings and help, including being animated
- Full-screen mode with clock and same buttons as iPhone view
- Viewing high-resolution
Firmly supported by a team of hard testers that he was not allowed respite, Oliver offers us an application that's always a good head start on competing applications. More over, even before its release, this work was already being hailed by the press Boating (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 I'm back, Internet access easier, So I downloaded the new version and I must say I am pleasantly surprised. A little disappointed initially by the first version, is … one thing to say : Bravo. A Pro version ? I now eagerly awaiting, with a question : but is she bringing more ? As in Martinique, I believe, You only create the desired area for the weather in Martinique or elsewhere. I also tested the Caribbean from Martinique to Panama, and ZIC, Panama to Galapagos.
I bought it and am a little disappointed. No one tells you in advance that it does not cover the Caribbean.

Of course if ! Just create a new zone covering the desired region. You can create, modify or delete, many areas covering any region of the planet. I sent you two screenshots by email.
Beautiful !
