I’ve been using this app for 10 years and can’t say a single bad thing about it. I was fortunate to catch the deal back then and purchase lifetime access to all features. It wasn’t cheap, but it has certainly proven to be worth every penny.I’m a seafarer in the offshore construction and installation sector, where weather is critical to operations and safety. Having a reliable tool like this right in my pocket has been invaluable.If the developers are reading this, consider adding a dedicated activity or section tailored to seafarers—something like “Maritime” or “Offshore Operations.” In fact, it would be extremely useful if users could submit weather reports from their current coordinates. Crowdsourcing real-time, on-site observations could help validate conditions, improve local accuracy, and enhance prevailing forecasts.
Developer Response
Thank you, this is genuinely humbling to read. Both of your ideas are interesting, a section built around maritime and offshore work and on-site reports from users' own coordinates, and we'll pass them on to the team. Fair winds and safe watches out there! If more ideas come up, we'd love to hear them at windy@windy.app or via the envelope icon in the side menu of the app.
Good weather app

Thank you for your feedback! We are very grateful for your support. If you have any idea what we can improve to get 5 stars from you, please let us know at windy@windyapp.co. Your feedback could help us to improve our app and make you and our users happier :)
I wanted to hunt hurricanes/storms/tornadoes but..

Yea, BUT you need to pay for using “hurricane tracker” or idk. It’s good but functional I wanted isn’t free.
Developer Response
Hi! Thanks for your feedback!You can actually use the map and the app itself for free to track the synoptic situation and forecasted wind speed. By checking the forecast on the map, you can see exactly where and when the strongest winds will hit—this is all part of the free functionality.Regarding tornadoes: we don’t have a specific "tornado tracker" because they are local phenomena caused by complex factors that differ from large-scale storms. However, you can definitely use our wind forecast to stay ahead of major weather events!
Excellent!
