Moji Weather, the largest social weather app in China with 500M+ downloads, now uses Mapbox Streets Chinese for iOS and Android to power their daily forecasts. Moji Weather is a social, crowd-sourced app generating real-time weather data from its user base around the world. Beyond just sharing pictures of their environment, users can also share how the weather makes them feel, which is important for those sensitive to migraines or those with allergies.
The app also features an index that advises users how to dress for the day, how prominent UV rays are in the area, and whether or not it’s a good day for fishing or sports.
Now, Moji users have access to super detailed Air Quality Index (AQI) and radar maps. The AQI map generates real-time AQI markers throughout China at various zoom levels; the radar map takes advantage of our vector maps to display clean stutter-free radar visualizations.
Our Chinese government-certified maps are hosted on servers both inside and outside China, guaranteeing blazing fast loading times wherever you are. Contact our China team if you are interested in using our maps in China.
