Description

The Portent Aviation Weather app provides critical weather data you need to know before flying. METARs, TAFs, and satellite imagery are available worldwide. Winds, temperature, humidity, turbulence, and aircraft icing are shown at selectable flight altitudes across the US along with radar reflectivity, weather and precipitation types, and ceiling and visibility conditions. The Portent app retrieves and displays all of these current and forecast aviation weather conditions in a convenient and easy-to-interpret manner. The Portent app was developed by the original creators of the Aviation Digital Data Service (ADDS). It is fully functional during the 30-day trial period.
Map Features:
- METAR cloud and flight category icons and wind barbs (worldwide, latest surface observations)
- Radar base reflectivity mosaic (US, updated every 10 minutes)
- Satellite visible and infrared wavelengths (worldwide, updated every 30 minutes)
- Forecast radar, satellite, ceiling, visibility, flight category, weather, and precipitation (US, updated every hour out to 15 hours)
- 3D forecast winds, temperature, humidity, turbulence, icing probability and severity (US, selectable altitudes, updated every hour out to 15 hours)
- Basemaps with zoom-appropriate information like cities, roads, rivers, lakes, and airport runways (select "Simple," "Shaded Relief," or "Colored Terrain")
- Time-based animation
- Flight altitude selection for 3D products
Station (METAR and TAF) Features:
- current (METAR) and forecast (TAF) weather conditions
- all sites worldwide
- at-a-glance primary flight conditions (VFR, MVFR, IFR, LIFR)
- user-customized lists of stations
- full text METAR/TAF available
- user-friendly display of clouds, visibility, winds, and weather
- the age of each report along with the current Zulu (UTC) time
Note:
- Some countries’ METAR and TAF reports may be formatted inconsistently compared to international standards. In those rare cases, reports may not be decoded and displayed as intended.
- Only U.S./English units are shown. A future release may support metric units.
Weather data are collected from reliable United States government sources, but we cannot guarantee that they will be available at all times. Portent Aviation Weather is for pre-flight purposes only and should not be used in flight. Worldwide, there are many sites that report current (METAR) data, but do not have official TAFs.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

1 ★Why would this app require access to location???
4 ★Very useful to see wx in easy to read format.
5 ★Tells me what I need to know in a concise way. Love the color coded TAF's for a quick forecast.
3 ★This app has frequently been inaccurate with the translated taf forecast times. If the app was consistently accurate and reliable I would really like this app. But until they can fix this big error.......
5 ★Love this app. I am impressed with the presentation of METAR and TAF data for airport observations and forecasts. It's done with a nice easy-to-use interface especially to go forwards and backwards in time. Plus good radar and satellite images. Highly recommended to anyone who flies or has an interest in flying.
5 ★Excellent presentation of fundamental and useful information. The interface is clean and manageable and I look forward to further upgrades to solidify this app in my daily preflight use.
5 ★Excellent presentation of aviation weather data.
5 ★Very clean and easy to use interface with especially easy to interpret weather radar and satellite imagery. Also really like the METAR and TAF display and finger swipe to future airport conditions. A really good weather app!!!
5 ★Terrific new radar and satellite data in addition to mandatory pilot weather briefing data of METARs and TAFs, all of which are presented logically and in user-friendly fashion. Using finger swipe to switch from present to past or future airport weather conditions is fantastic and easy.
5 ★Just what I need for flight planning.
3 ★More stars when updates and new features added other wise good start with room to add cloud altitude graphics?
5 ★Great at-a-glance depiction of METARs and TAFs
