I love the App and have a request or suggestion. Why not have an adaptation of this App that would be compatible with MSFS2020? Would be especially nice if we could install it into the custom Toolbar within the simulator. I think lots of guys would appreciate it and it would be very helpful.
meh … it’s a “work in progress”

I use this app on an iPad, and this app shows it’s lineage as one of the many that started life as an iPhone app. My biggest complaint is that the app launches in “portrait” mode rather than landscape. The user has to undergo a few “gyrations” in order to get it to display in landscape mode. And along the lines of iPad functionality, there’s no ability to split-screen the app. And there should be a “refresh” button on the active METAR page to capture the latest reading. Lastly, the ability to sort the favorites would be a nice touch. As a “certified weather app-addict”, I think I must have tried every aviation weather app out there. This app is kinda “pricey” for the lack of sophistication it offers, so if the developer would adopt some of my suggestions, this app could elevate out of the “ho-hum” range. As of now, it’s not a “go-to” or “must have” app.
Missing airports METAR and widgets

Hi I liked the appearance I have to say. Great design, easy to use. But I am surprised that one of the busiest airport YSBK is not there and when I select it, it gives me wrong information for the METAR and taf.. it uses the nearby airport instead. This is not good and I don’t think that’s difficult to include like other similar software? The name of the app is metar and tag. It should include as much as the airports who provide it to the public. Hope you could add those important airports weather information? That’s very important! Looking forward to your reply. Leo
If You Would Allow Aligning The Runway For Pilots
Brother in Erbil
As a pilot who is using this App in the cockpit for crosswind check, I keep trying to contact the Developer to allow the App to align the runway vertically up and down to your actual approach instead of oriented toward the cardinal direction with NORTH UP. The Developer said you can do that on the web version by just clicking on the runway, but the App can't do that, yet. It should have been the other way around: Allow the App to do that first. Pilots have your App in the cockpit.
