◆◇Main Features◆◇

★ Rainfall Graph
The peak of rainfall is clearly visible. You can instantly see how much rain is expected and when, without needing to adjust the timeline manually. Tapping on the rainfall graph lets you check the status of rain clouds at that specific time.

★ Rain Alert for Current Location
If it looks like rain at your current location, you'll receive a notification about the expected rainfall volume and timing. This feature allows you to bring in laundry or relocate outdoor items before sudden showers. You'll also receive notifications when the rain has stopped. It's designed not to notify you while in transit by train or car.

★ Heavy Rain Alerts
Even during light rain, you will receive escalating notifications as conditions reach heavy rainfall. This is useful for disaster preparedness.

★ Tomorrow's Rain Alert
Receive notifications about potential rain in specific locations and time slots for the next day. This assists with decisions such as, "Will I be able to run in the morning?" or "Should I wake up early?" If there's a change in forecast since the initial notification, you’ll be notified again.

★ Precise Weather Forecasts
The app displays weather every three hours up to approximately five days ahead, assisting with planning activities like "It’ll be rainy the day after tomorrow, so I'll run tomorrow morning!" Locations can include not just your current position but also anywhere in the country via long tap. This is convenient for checking the weather at travel or business destinations.

★ Customizable Rainfall Alerts
You can set thresholds for notifications, such as not being alerted for rain below 2mm/h. This is recommended for those who prefer to run in light rain and don’t want unnecessary alerts.

★ Automatic Adjustment of Rain Cloud Density
In the rainfall radar map, having rain cloud visibility too dark or too light can be troublesome. "Is it going to rain?" automatically adjusts the density based on current local rainfall data. Furthermore, you can manually set your desired level of intensity.

★ Tap Across Japan for Weather Information
You can long tap anywhere nationwide to get rainfall information. The rainfall graph will also update, allowing you to identify peak rain times.

★ Features for Runners and Cyclists
The app includes a "Current Time Auto Move" mode that aligns maps and graphs with real-time conditions as closely as possible. It also features a "Auto Move to Current Location" mode that adjusts maps using GPS while on the go. You can check local rainfall conditions wherever you are.
