This app is so cool with the detailed currents hour-by-hour. I’m just checking it out for the free trial. It seems worthless without paying for the full app. I might use it seasonally during paddling season. It’s really cool to nerd out at this level in the San Juan archipelago
Developer Response
Hi Jmthey, thank you for your feedback! We've worked hard to assemble the data and features to give the app everything you need for paddling. If you haven't seen it yet, check out the Forecast Alerts to set an alert on your favourite paddling locations when the right conditions are forecast - so you can plan your next adventure. Enjoy the water!
The Best
classvtony
I have several weather and tide apps. This is my only I open anymore.
Developer Response
Thank you for your review Classvtony! We are delighted to hear that. We have invested heavily in the app, with proprietary data sets to bring you the best current information available. You have really made our day.
The part you want is paywalled
Emaqua
Ads say “free” but depict paywalled premium content. Despite appearances, you will not have access to that current map without paying a significant subscription fee. They would be better off making it a paid app. Bait and switch is a turnoff. No thanks ✌️Also that overall rating of 4.1 - not possibly accurate. Sort reviews by “most favorable” and the highest rating you’ll see is 2 stars.
Developer Response
Hi Emaqua, sorry to hear you're disappointed by the subscription nature of the app. Constructing the proprietary dataset for this app has required a substantial investment, so we cannot offer it for free. The app is represented accurately. It is clearly labelled, offering In-App purchases. The Wind, Current, Wave and Tide data provided on the home page are free. Using the Maps requires a Professional subscription. I will discuss with the team how we might clarify the paid content in the app description.
Indian hands made this app
goobermensch
The whole app feels vibe coded and insecure. You need an account just to check the current... When you try to make an account it does not save the password in their database correctly so you cannot login. Please filter out characters you can't handle if you are going to force people to create accounts. Which is very silly. Just use uuid
Developer Response
Hi Goobermensch, sorry to hear you don't find the app to your liking. No vibe coding going on here, just hard-working New Zealand-based developers. If there are password characters you're unable to use when setting up an account, could you please email support@predictwind.com and we'll look into it. We test the app multiple times a week with new registrations (and more) to identify and resolve any issues we find, so if you have found a genuine bug, please get in touch and we'll happily resolve it.
