Weather app struggles The problem is that although we can predict the conditions ideal to make showers, it is practically impossible to predict where and when they will occur. This is why the apps.
- BBC Weather apps On 20 May 2013, the BBC released the BBC Weather App for both iOS devices (although initially not optimised for iPad ) 23 and Android devices (via the Google Play Store). 24 Both versions were designed by Media Applications Technologies, and their data source was the Met Office.
- While BBC Weather has not identified any specific issues with its platform, Google has. The tech giant found an issue with phones caused by Android System WebView. The system component lets Android apps display web components, and Google’s fix should solve problems some people have experienced with the BBC Weather app.
BBC Weather App was reportedly not working as users reported complaints that the Android app went down on Tuesday.

A Twitter user posted this tweet just today facing the BBC Weather app outage issue.
“#bbcweather app for Android still not working this morning. Anyone else still having problems?” – Twitter

There have not been any reports of the BBC Weather app outage issue in recent years. However, according to tourism chiefs, inaccurate weather forecasts from the BBC weather app had affected the trade back in 2018. Several users were disappointed due to storm forecasts over the May Bank Holiday weekend. But the weather remained dry as opposite to BBC’s prediction of rain all morning on Saturday.

Latest update
The BBC Weather app had received an update in October 2020. According to the BBC website, the app finds the most recent forecast information as soon as you open it. It also shows the time of the last update so that users can identify how latest the forecast information is.
“The Android version of the app allows you to add a BBC Weather ‘widget’ to your home screen. The widget will periodically check for the latest forecast information based on the frequency you set within the app: ‘Settings’ > ‘Widget Refresh Frequency’,” the website answers.
