Great initial forecasting app. Lacks deeper features found in Windy and others, but I prefer its more intuitive simplicity. I would go to a second or third source for better insight the night before a potential flight perhaps, but I really like the widget for a quick look at my favorite flying spot for the week.

great wind apps. I even bought the pro subscription to support this. The one that prevents me to give 5 stars is there is no ability to change the altitude. I want to see the wind speed at altitude 50m, 100m, 200m etc. Sadly this apps cannot do that eventhough other apps easily be able to perform that feature. please update the apps to give that features. cheers

The app only works the first time after I reboot my phone. when I close it and re-open it, the app just shows a little circle going round and round and round... my phone runs android 10, my husband's phone runs android 9 and the app works perfectly. Not sure if that is the issue but that's the only difference. we use windy daily in our business so it really is a bumper that it doesn't work on my phone. Unfortunately we are not always together so I can't always just grab his phone.
