Windy

I really like this app, it seems to be aimed at kite surfers but looks like it’ll be perfect for planning canoe and dinghy sailing trips, too. So far I have been checking that it’s forecasts are accurate in my area and seems like they are. In use, everything you need is right there on your main view plus there’s a map function. Swiping through the timeline changes the wind ‘window’ graphic which is size and colour coded and makes it very easy to see clearly where the wind will be at what time. That’s the most useful function for me but having all the weather and tide numbers tabulated on one screen view is also very neat especially as I have been using three separate apps to get the same picture. I can see it helping to decide when to head for home or plan your lunch stop on a day sail. Connection wise it has worked OK right down to a 3G signal. I’ll be using it for some canoe trips in the spring where I’ll have a mobile signal. If it’s as good as it seems now I think the price of the full version will be reasonable value.

Loving the detail

Very good. As a sea kayak business owner and sup paddler, the app works really well for me and has been vital these last few days when planning a trip. I love the level of personalisation and the ability to compare various weather data along side each other. I do get a little confused with all the sources and it looks like it could take me a while to work out which sources I should always go to! I’ve got three things that would help the app. 1 - the ability to use a custom set up with the “Lite” top widget view when I’m at home and not next to the beach (it’s a bit weird seeing swell details when I’m not next to a beach!). 2 - a bit of help inside the app to advise the best forecast source to use for my area. 3 - Apple Watch App and complications.

But great work on the app. After a day of using I paid the pro fee and love the detail.

Almost perfect.

To me this app has the most attractive, easy to use interface of any maritime weather app out there. As someone who studied design, I find that is is a god set miracle that this app is accessible for free. There is only one thing stopping me from purchasing the full version of this app though.

The tidal graph works off of Mean Sea Level and not Chart Datum.

As a sailor I find a lot of my time is spent working out the tide times and height. Although I admit the practise is good. It would be amazing to see this app eliminate that; as it almost already does. The simple problem with having MSL on the graph over CD is that no charts work off of MSL. If this app could tell me the tide height off of CD, I would be much more inclined to purchase that app so that I could utilise the features with the offline mode.
