´óÏó´«Ã½

´óÏó´«Ã½ Weather's beta programme is your chance to try out new features and improvements to our apps on Android and iOS devices prior to their full public release. It's also an opportunity to provide us with feedback and therefore help us to improve the overall experience.

Please note that as these are early beta versions of the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Weather app they may contain some errors and may not function quite as well as the publicly available version of the apps.

The beta programme is open to anyone in the UK with an Android or iOS device.

To join the programme, just click the relevant link below and follow Google or Apple's instructions.

The beta programme is available on Android devices running Android 5.0 or later, and iOS devices running iOS 14.0 or later.

Can I use multiple devices?

Yes. Once you are enrolled in the programme, your Google or Apple account will be associated with our beta group; if you visit the Google Play Store (for Android devices) or TestFlight (for iOS devices) you should be offered the option to download the beta version of the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Weather app. There is no restriction to the number of devices you can use the beta app with - the more the merrier.

Absolutely not. As our beta app is distributed through Google and Apple's official channels, it works just like any regular app - no changes to your device are required.

There's a 'Help and Feedback' option within the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Weather app's menu. From here, tap on the mail icon to send an email directly to the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Weather team with your feedback. Please note, these emails automatically include some standard information about your device (Device Model, Operating System and App Version). In order for us to triage feedback as quickly as possible, it's important that this information is not deleted.

In order to be an effective beta tester, all you need to do is use the app as you would the regular version and let us know what you think. We want to hear about your experiences using the app as you would normally.

Unfortunately not. The beta version of the app will update over the top of your live app.

Android

To opt out, please visit the following URL on your Android device and select the 'Opt Out' option:

This will remove your Google account from the beta programme, and any further downloads of the Weather app from the Google Play Store will revert to the original live version. You'll need to uninstall the beta app and reinstall the production app to be fully removed from the programme. It's worth noting that it may take several hours for your account settings to be updated once you opt out.

iOS

For iOS users, you can delete yourself as a tester by opening the TestFlight app, selecting ´óÏó´«Ã½ Weather and tapping 'Stop Testing'. You can then download the latest publicly available version of the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Weather app from the Apple app store, as normal.
