Ratings and Reviews
The Best Weather App
Highly recommended to purchase the premium subscription. It’s not expensive and it gives you a ton of cool features. The forecast widget is perfect to see what the next couple of hours will bring but the “compare forecast” feature in app is incredible for planning long-term backcountry adventures. I find myself spending more time on windy than I do anywhere else online! The different layers tell you so much about the conditions around the world.

Thank you for your 5-star review. We're glad you're enjoying our service, and we promise to keep it up! Ondra from Windy
Dangerously good
It’s a very good app… which is kinda the problem.
A lot of people are under the impression that you don’t need to be able to understand the complexities and nuances of marine conditions, simply because they have Windy. I reckon this has lead to a decay in more traditional meteorological skills amongst experienced mariners who used to regularly calculate and plan based the actual observed conditions, due to the fact that they don’t really have to anymore.
Of coarse, having a strong working knowledge of the fundamentals, reinforced by regular application of well developed skills, is still best practice. Windy just works and that’s great for those who lack deeper knowledge and experience but want to be able to safely operate on the water. I wonder if it’s doing to solid meteorological analysis what graphics GPS has done to the sextant.
I’m a hypocrite - it’s been more than a year since I used a major port tide table to calculate the likely sea state, based on a MetService forecast and a paper chart. I just look at windy, drag the slider and know what’s gonna happen.
Pretty cool, but kinda dumb.

Your review is truly appreciated. Thanks for the feedback about Windy.com! Ondra, Windy
Please bring back forecast soundings/Skewt scrubbing through time functionally on phones
I am a professional meteorologist and I used this app on my iPhone all the time. However, a recent update dropped a critical piece of functionally. I used to be able to click on a point, bring up a Skewt forecast, then scrub through time to see how the profile evolves. I can no longer do this. Can you please bring this back? Thanks for the awesome work!

Hi Joe, thank you for your feedback on the last update. I will forward this to colleagues from the product team to get further info. ~ Best, Windy
