A smarter forecast
Umbrella tells you when to leave and what to bring — and looks out for the people you care about.
What it does
A plain-language read on your day — when it peaks, when it turns, and what to wear for it. Plus daily briefings.
"Rain starting in 12 minutes." Precise onset and easing times for the next hour, where available — so you time the door right.
Dry at home, raining at the office? Umbrella checks your departure and your arrival — and tells you "leave at 8:10, not 8:30 — you'll skip the shower."
Add your mum in another city or the kids' school run, and Umbrella quietly watches the weather where they are. "Check on Mum today — 37° there this afternoon."
Step out the door and get a heads-up if you'll need a coat or an umbrella — built on a geofence around home, refreshed the moment you leave.
On a wet day, Umbrella spots the gap: "Next dry window 2:15–3:40 — good time for that walk." Silent when the whole day's fine.
Optional, opt-in heads-ups for pollen, air quality, heat, cold and pressure swings — tuned to what affects you, stored only on your device.
Real Met Office and NWS warnings, straight from the source, wherever they're issued — with Umbrella's own detection covering everywhere else.
Suggestions matched to the weather and the clock — a golden-hour photo nudge at sunset, a clear-sky stargazing note at night. Never a picnic at 10pm.
