Plan your day with weather and Aido briefing
Aido’s weather is all new. Check current conditions and hourly and 10-day forecasts anywhere in the world, while Aido briefing matches today’s scheduled to-dos with the weather. Here’s what each part of the screen shows, when the briefing says what, and how moving times and notifications work.

Start with these steps
- 1
Open the weather screen
Tap the weather button on Home. Allow location access to see the weather where you are. Tap the refresh button at the top right to update it anytime.
- 2
Check Aido briefing
Right below the current weather, see today’s scheduled to-dos alongside the weather at those times. Check off to-dos right there, or tap ⋯ to edit them.
- 3
Move to-dos that clash
If a to-do clashes with rain or heat, tap “Move to a dry time” or “Move to cooler hours.” Pick a suggested time with less rain or heat to move them all at once, and undo if you change your mind.
- 4
Get morning and evening weather notifications
Turn on weather notifications to hear about the weather each morning and evening. If a to-do clashes with rain or heat, tap the notification to move it right away.
Try it in your day
Say you’ve planned a dog walk at 3 PM and rain is on the way. Here’s how it goes.
- If there’s a 50% or higher chance of rain at 3 PM, the briefing shows that to-do first.
- Tap “Move to a dry time” for a time with less rain. Pick one and it moves right away, and you can undo it.
- If there’s a clear stretch, the briefing suggests a walk then. Tap the suggestion to open Add to-do already filled in.
This is an example of how it works. What you see depends on the day’s forecast and your to-dos.

Rain, heat, clear skies, abroad and offline: here’s what the weather screen tells you in each case.

What Aido briefing tells you, and when
The briefing checks these in order and shows the first one that applies.
| When | What you see |
|---|---|
| 1A 50% or higher chance of rain, snow, or lightning at a to-do’s time | Shows that to-do first and suggests moving its time. |
| 2A daytime feels-like temperature of 33 °C (91 °F) or higher | Warns you about the heat and suggests moving to-dos that clash with it. |
| 3Rain on the way soon | Suggests getting a to-do done before the rain starts. |
| 4A clear stretch of the day | Tells you the best time to be outside and suggests adding a walk. |
| 5No to-dos left today | Shows tomorrow morning’s temperature, and lets you know if it’ll be chilly (10 °C / 50 °F or below). |
| 6Everything looks fine | Lets you know your remaining to-dos are clear of weather worries. |
If the weather location is in a different time zone from your device, like when you check a place abroad, the briefing is hidden.
Room to breathe on bigger screens
Beyond iPhone and Android, bigger screens like iPhone Duo and iPad show current weather and forecasts side by side. Unfold a foldable for two roomy panes, too.
iPhone Duo
Unfolded, the buttons move to the right side so current weather and forecasts get more room.
iPad
Current weather and the hourly forecast sit on the left, with the 10-day forecast on the right.
If your location can’t be found
Weather needs location access to show where you are. If it can’t find you, make sure location access for Aido and location services are on in your device settings, then tap refresh. Your to-dos keep working without weather.
When you’re abroad
You get the local weather and notifications abroad too. Weather for a place in a different time zone from your device shows local times, like “6 PM local time.” The briefing is hidden then, so to-do times and weather times never get mixed up.
When you’re offline
A notice appears at the top, and your last-seen to-dos and weather stay on screen. Everything refreshes automatically once you’re back online.
Your location is used only for weather
We look up weather by a roughly 5 km area instead of your exact spot. Location access is your choice, and you can change it anytime in your device settings.
Questions
Why don’t I see the briefing?
The briefing is hidden when the weather location is in a different time zone from your device. If you’re viewing a place abroad, check again for a place in your device’s time zone.
Why don’t I see next-hour precipitation?
Minute-by-minute rain forecasts are shown only in supported areas. Elsewhere, Aido tells you about rain hour by hour.
Can I undo a moved to-do?
Yes. Tap undo after moving it, and it goes back to its original time. You can also change the time yourself in the to-do’s details.
Where can I see air quality?
In the weather details. Air quality is available in Korea only and comes from AirKorea.
