UAV Forecast 4+

Excellent app for UAV pilots

I’ve only been flying for a month so everything is still pretty new to me. This app shows me exactly what I need to know for my flight planning purposes, and it does so with a really efficient and easy to read grid of information.

Pros:
> I can change thresholds for any of the weather or atmospheric metrics
> I can send a snapshot of the weather/forecast to myself to add to my flight log later
> The app is updated regularly. If you’re looking for sUAS apps (or any apps for that matter), check out the last time they were updated!
> I bought the subscription and I think having several days’ worth of data is worth the small price - helps a lot for planning flights for later in the week.

Cons:
> Not a con, but a feature request. Please consider adding a way to store a few favorite locations. I currently save GPS coordinates in a notepad page and paste them into search when trying to plan a flight, but favorites would be a little easier.

Overall excellent app for uav weather as long as they keep doing a great job keeping the app up to date and simple to use.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for subscribing, for the detailed review and the feature suggestions! Your support is much appreciated.

Fixed! :))) Got Charged Subscription Fee But APP said subscription Failed

Edit: Support helped me fix my problem so it’s all gravy. The app is dope and super useful overall. Customer service did a great job resolving the issue.

Original post: I want to like this app, looks really useful, but I pressed subscribe, the app said it failed, yet my iCloud and card still got charged and my account says I’m subscribed to the service. Developer please help? I’ve already emailed support. Will change rating when the issue is resolved.

Great app for UAV flyers

Excellent addition to my collection of apps for drone flying. The Wind Profile tab shows me everything I need to know about the wind at various altitudes before I go out flying.

Feature request: At the top of the Wind Profile screen it shows “Last Update: a few seconds ago”, which tells me when the app last pulled data from the server, but it doesn’t give me any indication of how old the data on the server is. Much more useful would be a time stamp from the data feed itself (if there is one) indicating how current it is. “Last update: a few seconds ago” always leaves me wondering if I’ve just pulled down 3-day-old data from the server...
