Windy.app — Windy Weather Map 4+

This is a very narrow-minded review for those of us who are just weather junkies - we're not flying kites (at least not every day), sailing boats, or otherwise out playing in the wind. We just want the best weather info available, both forecasted and observed.

I've got every remotely serious weather app in the app store and subscribe to the premium services of a couple dozen of them. There's only one thing (in my opinion) that this app does that other available apps don't do better (and it's the only one that has this feature at all): it allows you to stack the parameters of several different models for easy comparison. I've created a custom profile that lets me see the model parameters I'm interested in grouped together for easy comparison: temperature, precip, wind, etc. The other Windy app's maps are far better, LuckGrib is far better at displaying the models and ALL the parameters, etc. I could go on with this sort of comparison for pages, but this app is the only that has the killer feature of letting me position the data in a chart in the order I want it - for that reason alone, I pay the subscription. Their support is also first class and they listen to requests from their users. But the custom profile comparison capability is the reason this app has a place on my home screen, and the reason I think it deserves 5 stars in a very crowded category.

Thank you for such a great feedback! It's very informative
We appreciate it and we are very grateful for your support.
We are open to any ideas about the app. Please, don't hesitate to contact us at windy@windyapp.co at any time!

My name is Bill Maxwell I am the owner and operator of the sport fishing boat TunaFever. From April through November my 57 foot sport fish weather permitting seven days a week between 45 and 55 miles offshore. We operate out of the Oregon in Inlet fishing center located in Nagshead North Carolina on the outer banks. Most of our fishing is done on the western wall of the golf stream where it crosses the hundred fathom them curve. This app Windy is by far the most reliable source of information that I can use to determine whether I’m gonna have a safe day a beautiful day or whether I should go at all it’s an important factor on how I treat my people for my business because of the accuracy of this app. I’ve been in business for 34 years and looked at all kinds of things for information for safe passage in the ocean and yours is by far the best I recommend it to anyone and it is been my pleasure to use it thank you so much Captain Bill Maxwell !!!!

All in all it very detailed weather report can use gps on your phone to show your location and nearest locations multiple choices of weather data sources or I use the compare all models to get the best idea of what they are all saying. From the tide Time including showing the length of the moving tide and slack tides using graphs which is very accurate even in spots I wouldn’t assume it would be. The wind report is very helpful and using different reports can give you a good idea of future outlooks for the days you may call iffy but the standard showing of it is very accurate for immediate knowledge of the next 6-8 hrs for sure. The fishing reports seem to match with standard fish and moon tides but doesn’t give an updated report unless a user posts about it and fishing is usually a hush hush type of your spot found fish don’t tell anyone sport.

Hello! Wow! We’re really grateful for your feedback. We put a lot of effort into making the app 100% enjoyable. If you have any ideas about what should be added to the app to make it more convenient for you, please email us at windy@windyapp.co!
