Windy.app - Enhanced forecast - Weather & wind forecasts

So, the app itself is cool and all, but man, those notifications are just too much. Every time I open it, there's this annoying splash screen pushing me to buy the fancy plan. And then, you won't believe this, they randomly send me notifications all hyping up that same premium plan. Like seriously, can't a guy catch a break? And get this, there's no way to tweak privacy or notification settings in the Options. Total bummer. Plus, their content comes from GFS27, so like other apps out there pretty much have the same stuff without bombarding you with ads. Oh, and don't even get me started on that "Update available!" popup that keeps bugging me. I mean, come on, I let my phone do its thing at night when it's charging. Why all the rush to update right there and then? Just chill, dude!

Isn't it interesting how if you go for the seven-day trial, the yearly subscription cost goes up by $10? Free isn't really free these days. They should improve that! Oh, and here's an update: If you choose the "free trial," the initial screen displaying an annual price of $24.99 switches to indicate that after the seven-day trial, the price will actually be $34.99. I wonder how many people overlook that important information? Free isn't really free after all.

I have been using the free version of this app for about 12 months. I've been telling all my swimming friends about it because it's the most accurate for checking wind and swell conditions. However, with each update, we lose some functionality. Now, I only get one forecast model, GFS27, which is from the USA. Before, I had a choice of 3 or 4, including at least one European model. Despite this, it's still the best app for seeing all the important data in one place.

Want to share my experience with a free app. Thought it had a free trial, but did not get it. Couldn't cancel the subscription that would start in less than twenty four hours after the trial. It might be useful for scheduling, but lacks other features. Found other apps with more info for free.

Nice job! The app has improved a lot with the model updates, making it one of the top choices again. I really like the model compare view, it's super handy. The 'best model' feature is cool, though it could be more precise. It would be awesome to have the option to tweak its settings (like time frame or wind direction). Customizing screens can be a bit tricky sometimes, but the app is still great. It would be nice to have more weather stations featured as well.

You should try an app that offers a great combo of weather, wind, waves, and tide info. If you're currently using the pro version with offline maps, that's awesome! You use it while being a cruise director on a liveaboard for diving. To speed things up, maybe you could customize what to download and the amount. If you're not big on maps and prefer numbers, focus on that!

Great to hear that the previous issue has been fixed! Thank you for your feedback on the tide widget. Including options for LAT or MLLW versions is important to many users like yourself who require accurate information about water levels. Understanding when water may run out or areas may become inaccessible due to tides is crucial. The variation in tide heights, such as 7 meters during spring tides and 5 meters during neap tides where you live, highlights the need for specific tide height data to be available. This will help ensure that users have the necessary information to plan and navigate effectively based on real-time conditions. Next up, we will work on incorporating a tide widget for you.

I tried the Windy app for checking the weather recently, and I have to say, it was really impressive. The app is easy to use and gives detailed and accurate weather information that's simple to find. Whether I needed to know about wind speeds, temperature changes, or if it would rain, Windy provided all the details with amazing precision.
