Name: Wayther
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)

Wayther is an app designed to give accurate, worldwide weather forecasts along any route: temperature, wind, precipitation, visibility, official weather alerts, sunset/sunrise & more at different points along a route based on a departure or arrival time.

Weather is a very important factor during long-term travel. Building a journey around the weather is a great idea.

Wayther is a game-changer for anyone planning a road trip or any type of travel. As someone who usually focuses on B2B and SaaS products, I find Wayther to be a refreshing and practical tool that solves a real-world problem: knowing the weather along your route in real-time. The standout feature of Wayther is its ability to provide weather updates specific to your journey, making it much easier to plan stops or adjust your route based on conditions. It’s perfect for long drives where weather can change drastically from point A to B. The interface is clean, intuitive, and integrates well with your navigation, offering real-time updates without being intrusive. For frequent travelers, road trippers, or even delivery services, Wayther takes the guesswork out of weather forecasting and helps ensure a smooth and safe journey. It’s a must-have tool for planning trips with peace of mind. 🌦️🚗

Best usage of WeatherKit I've seen so far, congrats Axel!

👋 Hey Product Hunters! I’m Axel, and I’m thrilled to introduce Wayther — my new iPhone app designed to keep you safe, help you minimize delays and save you money on your road trips by making you avoid bad and dangerous weather. My little app was recently featured in TechCrunch, AppAdvice and Gear Patrol. Wayther was born out of my experience working on another app, a digital boating log book. Weather plays a crucial role in boating, so I began integrating weather forecasts into trip planning. Coincidentally, while developing this feature, I had to drive a few hundred miles and wanted to dodge bad weather. I found myself constantly switching between Apple Maps and Apple Weather, manually checking conditions along my route. That’s when it hit me: there should be an app that provides weather forecasts specifically for road trips. Wayther gives you: 🌦️ Accurate real-time weather forecast along your route 📆 Up to 10 days in advance (choose departure or arrival date and time) 🌍 Anywhere in the world You can compare different routes and adjust your departure or arrival times to find the safest, most enjoyable window for your trip. It’s a powerful tool to avoid dangerous weather and unexpected delays by planning ahead with precise forecasts. The app is perfect not just for car drivers, but also for motorcyclists, RVers, truckers, bus drivers, and even bikers. Whether you need to dodge high winds, bad weather, or simply plan the best time to hit the road, Wayther has you covered. The app is free to download, and your first three trips are on completely free — no trial required. If you love the app and want unlimited trips, you can choose between a weekly, monthly or yearly subscription, depending on how often you are on the road. To celebrate this launch, I’m offering 40% off your first year with the code PH40, available until September 5th, 2024. Click here to redeem this offer. Download Wayther today, and I’d love to hear your thoughts or answer any questions—drop a comment below! This is the first version of the app, and I have many features planned. But I wanted to get it out there to see what people like, what they want, and how they use it 🙂. Thank you so much for your support! 🙏 🚀

Well done @alpennec! I've had a couple of nasty surprises in the past months, and I hope this will help prevent more!

@sowenjub thanks Arnaud for your comment, let me know how it goes and how the app turns out to be helpful to you!

Congrats on the launch, @alpennec ! Wayther looks like a must-have for road trips! Are there any AI features that help suggest the best times to start a journey based on weather forecasts? It would be great to know how the app leverages AI to enhance trip planning.

@riikkii_ oh that’s a nice idea for a future version of the app! Technically speaking, it should be possible but it requires a little bit of thinking to make it right because there are a lot of weather inputs for each waypoint, and they depends on the departure and arrival time. Thanks for sharing!

I always bookmark 3-4 cities in the weather app on my way from Munich to Zagreb. I always needed an app like this one. Great job Axel, I'm looking forward to trying it!

@damjandabo I’m happy you find the app useful! Let me know how it goes, and how accurate it is. Stay safe!
