Yahoo Weather: Forecast & Maps

Weather forecasts at a glance

Yahoo Weather: Forecast & Maps gives Android users current conditions, forecast details and map-based weather information in one place. It suits anyone who wants more than a single temperature reading, including daily commuters, travelers and people tracking changing conditions around several locations.

Forecasts, maps and saved places

The app presents weather information through a scrolling view that moves from the essentials into deeper details. Depending on the location and available data, you can check hourly conditions, a 10-day outlook, wind, humidity, pressure, UV information, air quality and the “feels like” temperature. Radar and satellite maps help show where rain, snow or storm activity is moving.

Saved locations make it practical to compare home, work, family addresses or travel destinations without searching for each place repeatedly. Location-based photography, sourced through Yahoo’s weather experience and Flickr imagery, adds visual context alongside the numerical forecast.

Who it suits

• Daily planning: Check temperatures, precipitation conditions and wind before leaving home.
• Travel and multiple locations: Keep an eye on destinations or cities that matter to you.
• Weather-aware users: Review radar, air quality, UV levels and other details beyond the basic forecast.

Position in the category

With a 4.42 rating from more than 1.45 million reviews and over 10 million installs, Yahoo Weather is a widely used option in the Weather category. Its main appeal is the combination of readable forecast summaries, detailed atmospheric data and interactive maps rather than a screen focused only on current temperature. The developer is Yahoo.
