A Weather Forecast Solution
for Motorola Defy Owners.
Introducing SMS Weather On Demand. While the Motorola Defy is a useful link for satellite messaging, many users also seek a simple, pay-as-you-go way to get on-demand weather forecasts. Our independent service is built to do exactly that, delivering forecasts to your phone via any SMS signal.
Add Weather Forecasts to Your Toolkit
Our service is built specifically for one purpose: to deliver accurate, pay-as-you-go weather forecasts. It works independently from your Motorola Defy device, using your phone and any available SMS signal.
There's no new hardware to buy, no new monthly subscription, and no complex setup. Just get the weather you need, when you need it.
Your first weather forecasts are free!
Get a feel for how the app works both online and offline to see the value for yourself. After you've used your initial free requests, you can continue the service and signup when you are online again with our straightforward, usage-based subscription.
How It Works
The initial setup happens while you're online, so that you're ready to go when you're off the grid.
Get Set Up Online
Create an account to verify your phone number. Then use the "Add to Home Screen" feature on your phone to install and run our lightweight application so it can be used offline.
Go On Your Adventure
Head out even where there's no internet. As long as your phone has the capability to send texts or use satellite messaging, you're covered.
Request Your Forecast
Open the app from your home screen. It uses your GPS location and your selected forecast options to help prepare a unique text for your request.
Send and Receive
Just hit 'send' in your messaging app. You'll get a weather forecast texted back in moments.
Please note: Standard messaging rates from your cellular or satellite carrier will apply for the SMS messages you send and receive. Coverage and Deliverability are also dependent on the cellular/satellite messaging providers you use.
