New App "Outdoor Outlook" Launches to Solve the "Four Seasons in One Day" Planning Dilemma

January 14, 2026 – New Zealand

New Zealanders planning to hit the trails this summer have a new ally against the country’s notoriously unpredictable weather. Australian independent developer Brad Whatman today announced the New Zealand launch of Outdoor Outlook, an outdoor activity planning app that transforms raw weather data into personalised adventure windows.

Outdoor Outlook uses a proprietary recommendation engine to analyse hyperlocal forecasts against a user’s specific comfort levels for wind, rain, and temperature.

"I wanted to build something that aligns to people's unique preferences when interacting with the outdoors," says developer Brad Whatman.

Key Features Include:

  • Track Multiple Activities and Times: The user can track different activities, times and locations to ensure they can plan their time effectively.
  • Hyperlocal Precision: Uses Apple WeatherKit for GPS-specific forecasts.
  • Personalised Activity Profiles: Custom settings for tramping, cycling, golf, and more.
  • Privacy-First: No cloud storage; all user profiles remain strictly on-device.
  • One-Tap Planning: Direct integration with device calendars.

Pricing and Availability

Outdoor Outlook is available now on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. It features a free tier and a Premium subscription for $1.99 NZD/month.

Tagline: Plan smarter. Adventure better.
