Rain Man - Window Cleaner

I've been using this app' for my iphone lately, just thought I'd give you the heads up. It notifies you when rain is near & viewable screens to see when it gets to you. For iphone & android.

Description: RainAlarm is the easiest and fastest way to know whether rain or snow is on the way. It has been developed to provide a fast, reliable and lightweight application. It also has it's own webpage.

Features:

• World map displaying radar images from various weather services.
• Zooming with three levels of detail using the standard touch capabilities.
• Configurable animation covering from 1 hour to 12 hours in the past. See where the precipitation is heading to.
• Push notifications alerting about precipitations approaching your location. The alerts are based on actual conditions and include information about distance, size and strength.
• Set alarm parameters such as sensitivity, time frame within which the alarm is enabled, covered radius around your position that will be checked for precipitations and the interval of the checking (how often should RainAlarm check for precipitation).
• Automatic refresh of images and location every 5 minutes when running in foreground.
• Automatic or manual determination of location. Select your manual location from a list of predefined locations or let the device figure out where you are.
• Save your actual location to be used as manual location.
• Share last image via E-Mail.

The radar images cover locations within (or close to) the borders of the following countries:

- Norway

- Slovenia

- Australia

- Germany

- Spain (including Balearic and Canary Islands)

- Canada

- United Kingdom

- Ireland

- US (including Alaska and Hawaii)

- Netherlands

- Puerto Rico

- Guam

(And are constantly working to enhance the list of countries.)

This weather app and widget are able to warn you against precipitation (like rain or snow) by a silent alarm. You can watch what is coming by the up-to-date radar animation. Even more convenient, the supplied widgets can help you monitor the precipitation situation without any alarms.

The data used originates from governmental weather services. Works in the USA (including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam), Canada, Australia, the UK, Ireland, Norway, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain (including the Balearic and the Canary Islands), Slovenia.

There are two versions of the app available: Rain Alarm uses Google Maps as background map whereas Rain Alarm OSM uses OpenStreetMap. In most cases the OSM version loads faster, whereas Google Maps seems more clearly arranged. All other functionality as well as the precipitation data shown on top of both maps is exactly the same.

RainAlarm Extended is the paid version of RainAlarm. It provides the following extra features:

- Pinch zoom with 3 levels of detail.

- No ads.

- Larger visible map area.
