Windy.com - Weather & Radar for Positive User Reviews
✓ Fantastic 😉👍🏼Such a great app. Used mainly for flying light aircraft. Has been so beneficial to myself and others. We all love it and been using in regularly. All features are very user friendly. Thank you to all involved in creating this extremely handy app. 👌🏼😘👍🏼.Version: 18.0203
✓ Application très utileDemeurant sur le bord du St-Laurent à St-Laurent-de-l’île-d’Orléans, les informations sont pratiquement toujours exactes. Celles-ci sont très utiles pour la préparation de randonnées en bateau..Version: 39.030355
✓ Easy learningI love the windy ap it allows me to instantly see what the weather is doing This makes me feel more in charge of my decisions - and I’m learning about the planet I live on all the time thanks windy ap.Version: 40.010234
✓ Mesmerising and instructiveThis app is mainly for those interested in wind speed and direction but gives so very much more and on a global scale with quite accurate forecasts over 7 days. Watch cyclones form and follow their paths, see where the pollution is, where rain is gathering, how wind circles lows and highs and lots more, the world over. A hot favourite with me, an ex yachty!.Version: 22.03
✓ I love this appThe best weather app I have ever used. I have been using it on my pc since it was released and was really thankful when the app became available. We get a lot of thunderstorms where I live and this app is great for monitoring their progress and how bad they might be. There are a heap of great features and I highly recommend this app. Thank you Windy! Very much appreciated! A1 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟.Version: 34.3.2
✓ Accurate for my open water fishingBeing able to compare 3 models is a great help in getting reliable, location specific forecasts a few days ahead, am able to get more boat days than ever before. Thanks.Version: 22.03
✓ Weather for everyone!FINALLY! - A weather app for adults. This app is amazingly sophisticated and deep with information enough to satisfy the most dedicated weather geek, yet simple enough so that you can see all the details of a 10 day forecast in one chart. The animated wind and storm overlays are absolutely the best I’ve seen in any weather app. The only thing lacking is a detailed video analysis of the weather situation for a particular area, but these are fraught with ads in other weather apps, and with a little education and the information provided by this app you could nearly compose your own video..Version: 28.1.1
✓ Windy ReviewWindy is Very handy and easy weather app to use for any age group i find it good for when im heading out for a fish and dive on the boat.Version: 35.3.1
✓ It’s got everythingSimply the best, most detailed weather app. I downloaded 10 weather apps and this one beats them all..Version: 27.3.2
✓ Weather forecastMost accurate forecast of when to expect weather which is important for my work. I can almost pick the minute we get the first drop thanks to this app 🤙🏼 From Dunsborough.Version: 35.3.4
✓ The best weather app by far!Thank you to the producers of this amazing weather app, it has to be the best and most informative app that I have ever used. I am still learning how to use it day by day, And I still keep finding stuff every time I use it... just watching wind, lightning and thunder and rain layers fascinates me to no end, thanks again....Version: 17.0202
✓ Excellent reference for whats comingLiving on a boat being able to plan and peace of mind is so important. Often use the “compare” option for wind.Version: 22.03
✓ Found my weather appHaving tried at least 5 other weather apps over time, I found Windy last week before hurricane Henri (I’m in NE US). I find it to be truly better, and has a different kind of design than then others. As I look through options, I find it’s not hard to navigate and an absolute wealth of info is available and easy to find. I try an unpaid version before upgrading, on the reasoning that if I find the first tier is great, I will eventually want the paid upgrade. In the free version, things are beautifully laid out, so Windy has my vote!.Version: 30.102
✓ Great app for truck driversAs a truck driver in the southwest, this app is amazing because I can monitor wind speeds and weather to make my job a little bit safer since it’s always windy here. we actually use it in our dispatch office as well. I started out with the free version, but I liked it so much I opted to get the premium subscription. I’d say Radar Omega is a little better if you’d like to track just thunderstorms and tornadoes, but this app is especially great for tracking windspeeds, but also does a good job on other severe weather. With the premium version you have access to all kinds of different layers between wind, rain, snow, ozone, temperatures, drought maps, all kinds of stuff. 50+ different ones actually. i’d recommend it and I’d say it’s probably the best “all around” weather app that I’ve come across so far..Version: 39.030355
✓ No more useless weather appsThis weather app is extremely accurate. It allows you to read the ozone layers, wind gusts, rain accumulation, and more. When there’s lightening, it vibrates your phone at every strike all over the world. It shows all the hurricanes circling up in swirls, where condensation gathers, and so much more. You won’t miss out on any type of weathers on this app. If you know how to read the wind, you’ll learn to pinpoint where tornadoes can occur, when funnels disappears, and reform elsewhere. This app is highly recommended, and I had my wife, my mother, and other people download the app. I taught them how to use, read, and pinpoint. Thank you for creating this app. We praise the team who created Windy..Version: 27.1.2
✓ Great appGreat work team. This is a great app but missing a few settings I would personally like to see the following improvements:- 1. Map zooming in and out - when you zoom in and out it doesn’t allow small zoom changes. It almost ‘snaps to grid’. For example if viewing the UK I’m either too far out that I can see some of Europe or too far in that the UK doesn’t fit on the screen - you need smaller increments of zoom like google maps etc do. 2. Make the animations much smoother and free flowing like MeteoEarth. Windy animation is too blocky. 3. Allow the default layer to be set rather than defaulting to wind. 4. Weather radar for UK - you have now done this. Great work!.Version: 15.15
✓ Outstanding weather appThe most comprehensive weather app available. This is for anyone serious about getting accurate weather information. Packed full of features and overlays. It is just brilliant..Version: 20.11
✓ A fab weather appI use lots of weather apps and this is way ahead of the rest both in the range of information available and the style in which it is presented. I notice someone gave this one star - I can only think they were looking for a cure for a gastric problem!.Version: 15.15
✓ Pretty great as far as weather apps go.Very user-friendly for being as in depth as it is, and that makes it a both a joy and a useful teaching tool. But I want more. I’d really like this to take the place of all, or at least most, of the web sites I use. I’ll list 3 things specifically: 1. Access to more computer models. Instead of just the deterministic GFS and ECMWF, add the 30 and 50 ensembles, respectively, or at least a blend. The Canadian model and its ensembles. The HRRR. The UKMET. Any of the big boys that I haven’t listed here. Also some CAM’s for short term. And being able to plot the data in charts and meteograms instead of just maps. 2. Forecasts, short-term and long-term, for the oscillations that drive the earth’s weather, i.e. the Madden-Julian and ENSO. 3. Archived history of weather maps and surface observations at airport, marine, mesonet and personal weather stations. I understand these are big asks—and not likely to be of much use to most people—but as a 2nd, elite subscription tier for 9.99 a month, I’d buy in..Version: 34.3.2
✓ Excellent app, unstable at the momentI am a sailor, forest fire warden, pilot, an outdoor enthusiast who has been a paid subscriber for many years, and have always used Windy to get a good overview of the long-range models. It is the best general presentation of forecast models available. I used Windy on both an iPhone and iPad Pro with equal success. However, in the last few weeks it has become very unstable and crashes soon after initiating. I have followed all the developer’s recommendations for correcting the installation on the user’s end but to no avail. I suspect there still is some condition that they haven’t resolved and I hope they can figure it out. Good luck!.Version: 33.1.1.8
✓ BEST EVER!!!I’ll update this later in more detail... but your app is the BEST... I SERIOUSLY MEAN BEST... of every other weather app I’ve ever known and downloaded in the last 7 years! Everything from data sources, detailed info, everything for a weather nerd as myself... almost could be a meteorologist lol! I’m a geologist so love everything related to Earth’s science... I’ll post an update later... but need to say THANK YOU for the best app EVER! 😃 Thank everybody that aided in developing your app Once I’ve available funds... I seriously wish to contribute as much as possible to the developers! FYI... this is the first review I’ve EVER submitted for an app... so everyone should now understand my love of this app!.Version: 22.03
✓ Use it all the time for long distance cruise planning as well as for local fishing tripsI have weather XM subscription on my Garmin chart plotter, but it only gets me a wind view out 3 days. Windy gives me an outlook on wind and swell direction as far as a week out. I find this invaluable for our summer cruising in the Bahamas. It allows me to line up wind and waves to best suit my boat and allows me to give my passengers a better ride on passages. Together with Weather XM and internet weather reports, I can minimize bad weather experiences for my guests (and wife) so they will want to come back again and again! I use Windy more than any of the others mentioned because it’s so handy and can be taken easily from boat to boat. Wherever I carry my phone (which is everywhere) I can get wind and sea conditions. If you’re a boater, you will love this app..Version: 37.2.0.10
✓ Best visualisation and range of modelsWindy provides the best user interface of all the wind/weather apps. It also clearly shows and compares the 4 different weather models so can make my own judgment based on a range of information. I use Windy constantly while sailing and I am happy to give it 5 stars..Version: 26.1.4
✓ ComprehensiveThis weather app is by far the most creative and comprehensive view of weather I’ve ever seen. As an outdoor person and one who gets out on the waters in our boat, the info can be tailored to cover just about any circumstance: example, wind speed and direction relative to Lows and Highs, relationship of wave actions to swells, and active tide/current data. There just is no other app that I know of that is so comprehensive, and I have yet to utilize all the features, like cloud formations at different altitudes. Keep up the good work! So many great apps “get better” and lose their utility...please,please, maintain your integrity!.Version: 24.0.4
✓ New features, quick to load and good UIHaving everything on a map overlay with features, that you didn’t even know you needed till now, is brilliant. Far better data visualisation than those ‘news’ websites you find at the top of the App Store. Great for anyone who works outdoors or at altitude..Version: 17.0202
✓ Awesome and thoroughI go offshore west coast vancouver island and rely on Windy forecast and weather and found Windy to be most reliable and accurate!!!!!.Version: 25.4.5
✓ Great applicationAs a retired yatchie I look at this app every day, pity it wasn’t available when I was on the water..Version: 37.1.8
✓ Excellent appThis app is wonderful for planning and for knowing what’s going on outside. The various layers are super-helpful for Flight planning as well. The simple and intuitive interface is very user friendly. I like that one can get as detailed as they want, with meteograms, etc. Before it was changed, I used to use the Storm app as a supplement, because it showed surface prog charts and storm tracks. Those would be two layers that this app could benefit from ASAP. The other Change I would make would be to be able to place several layers on at once (cloud base and CAPE, for example)..Version: 14.0901
✓ BrilliantThis app is awesome. Being able to very easily switch between different weather info providers is so useful. And being able to compare them all at the same time give you a much more reliable forecast. One thing that I miss from my old weather provider in the chance of rain percentage, but this has so many other useful features / weather info it blows other weather apps away 😉 I came across this app via it’s webcams across the world and at first just seemed like a fun gimmick, but actually are really very useful especially when used in conjunction with the satellite views for seeing what’s coming your way, or what it’s like before for you decide to go somewhere. Using the Apple subscription gets you the extra features across all windy logged in devices so you can have all the benefits on your desktop computers web browse too 😀 Thanks so much for the latest update and listening to users. Making everything a little bigger, I now no longer need to use screen zoom to use this app 😄.Version: 39.10337
✓ Love itAwesome there’s so much information for such a variety of applications. I’ve been toying with this for a while and I’m still finding stuff. I only wish there was more hints on what is available.Version: 22.03
✓ WeatherAbsolutely Fantastic app to see the weather predictions well in advance 😃.Version: 33.1.1.8
✓ Love this app, and it keeps getting better!I live in a city famous for changeable weather. I like to fish, kayak, ride bikes, and just spend time outdoors. This app gives me more accurate info than anything else. Incredibly dense and detailed information in an interface that still looks gorgeous. And now tides! I love you guys!.Version: 14.04
✓ Great app, needs bigger forecast text.Love the app, love the sheer amount of data. However, my only complaint is how small the text is in the app on my iPhone. The forecast information comes up on the bottom the of the screen, when it could easily cover the whole screen with a larger more legible, readable format. We don’t need to see the map when looking at the forecast. We can go back to the map to choose another location. Also, the icons; such as the home icon etc., could be larger. They are tiny at the bottom right. I have an iPhone 11, so not a small screen, and I’ll try to click one icon only to click another. With these improvements the app could be even better..Version: 29.2.7
✓ My go to weather appIt probably the most complete and accurate weather app currently available. The weather radar function is superb as you get to see the actual weather and not a forecast, in the wider area almost real time.Version: 37.2.5.27
✓ Best Weather App Ever InventedToo many good things to say about this app. I don’t have the space or the time to list them. So detailed, so accurate. If you need to know what is happening weather wise wherever you are currently or are planning to go this is the app to get!.Version: 25.4.5
✓ ValuableWith it being integrated into electronic flight bags like AVPLAN EFB, it is a Valuable tool to provide exceptional situational awareness for aviation weather and flight planning. Also my go to app for windsurfing. Ability to switch between source modelling algorithms provides a visual “average “ for long range planning..Version: 20.201
✓ Very helpfulI use this app as part of my risk assessment of any voyage I make on our local rescue vessel. I don’t live at the town where the vessel is located so it is helpful in that regard. I have found it to be reasonably accurate in predicting local conditions.Version: 41.020351
✓ One of the best weather apps, but have a recommendation.This is the main app I use to find weather info for not only my area, but globally. The only recommendation is to make the weather radar display different colors for different types of precipitation such as blue for snow and pink for freezing rain and ice pellets..Version: 37.2.5.27
✓ Excellent !!!Very user friendly. Easy to navigate and real time information updates are very beneficial. Great work, keep it up. Cheers.Version: 22.03
✓ Very informative, room for improvementI recently started using this app as a paramotor pilot. The only real gripe I have with it is that the screen that shows winds aloft can’t be zoomed in as far as I can tell. I find myself taking screen shots and then coming out of the app to open the photo and zoom in that way to see it more clearly. Other than that it’s a very useful tool..Version: 21.0302
✓ Depth of quality and featuresGenuinely impressive, not just in terms of its party trick (the lovely nullschool style graphics) but also its depth and quality..Version: 22.03
✓ WindyThis is the best weather app. We recommend it to all our customers in a tourism destination for boating, fishing, snorkeling etc. If you added live footage, it would be even more awesome! People aren’t aware of all the features that include swell, rain, cloud cover etc, but when we tell them they love it even more. It is THE BEST..Version: 25.0.0
✓ Love this appEspecially the nice meteogram display. Compact and efficient, clearly shows temps and pressure trends, cloud cover, precipitation. Oh did I mention it’s also accurate? All that’s missing is the nicely Interpolated radar maps from the now defunct dark sky. Monetization is unobtrusive and very reasonable, a rare thing nowadays..Version: 33.1.1.5
✓ InvaluableI write a weather blog on Facebook for my rural community in North Carolina, building local forecasts and discussions Originally from the US high plains of eastern Colorado, being weather aware could be a matter of life and death due to severe storms in summer, blizzards in winter, so I’ve been a meteorology enthusiast and studier since a young kid. Getting the model output of the NAM / ECMF & GFS has, until this app, required finding obscure university / government websites -relying on upkeep and maintenance of these pages - and none of these were practical over mobile The only things I could think of to improve the app are NOAA / Met Office warning polygons on the radar view, the inclusion of the US RAP Rapid Refresh model and theta-e (equivalent potential temperature) maps But these are minor quibbles on an otherwise highly sophisticated and immensely useful weather app Highly recommend for meteorologists, weather enthusiasts or people who want weather model data at their fingertips.Version: 26.1.4
✓ Storm RecoverySince the Weather Channel ruined the Storm app, I turned to Windy to get the wind animation and multi-city forecasts that I was accustomed to. Windy provides all that I seek in a weather app, and more. It did take time to find things, and my iPad version still will only show 3 overlay options, but lots of other display choices I do not care about and did not select in the same column of choices. Once I (accidentally) found the meteograms I am fascinated, but wish there was some place to learn what the detailed meaning. I also wish that front symbols would be able to display with temperatures, wind, or rain. I find the thunderstorm info distracting and wish I could turn it off..Version: 15.15
✓ Best DIY weather appIf you want to be your own meteorologist, this is the app. You have four models to choose from, including the renowned ECMWF, and can make your own comparison among the four. If you like the autonomy and are willing to take a little more time, you can do wonders with this app. If you prefer to let a meteorologist do the work, then you’re better off with your local weather station, keeping in mind that the forecasters are working from these same models. I live in a remote area in Alaska where there is no forecast available and for this situation Windy is invaluable..Version: 21.05
✓ JamesHasn’t let me down yet. Sailed down the east coast of the north island and was accurate to the hour on that particular trip. Apart from adding your own 15 knts to castle point and cook straight which is to be expected. Great for sailing with the distance planning. Windy keeps getting better and better.Version: 15.04
✓ Amateur userWithout doubt, this is the most versatile and reliable app. I have used for weather purposes. The range of weather elements included is virtually all inclusive. For our own area, the forecast has been very trustworthy. The graphics are excellent and everything is user friendly..Version: 22.03
✓ Founded Cayman Windsurf in the late eighties, so always been “following the Wind”.This is an Awesome App giving a clear, big-picture, graphical clarification of which coast of our Island, Grand Cayman is directly facing an onshore wind at each point during the period as a storm approaches, collides with, passes and recedes from our shores. Vitally important for those living on the coast, who are wondering when the sea is going to be threatening property, life and limb! And when an offshore wind will turn a typically windward-shore into a calmlGoon. Fascinating to see how systems from hundreds of miles away produce stormy conditions. Love it. Thank you! Chris N.Version: 27.1.2
✓ Living on the IslandLiving in Tasmania is unique. It’s different because of the authenticity of the weather. The wind. The clearness of atmosphere right around this beautiful island, that I sometimes take for granted.I am reminded by all we are offered. As we journey on this island it appears starkly different in its natural beauty of sublime landscapes and coast. It is a gift that we should treasure and nurture for coming generations. A pleasure in this world. Dr Peter Willans.Version: 39.10337
✓ Fantastic appUse it a lot as a supplement and to aid situational awareness for aviation weather briefings. Extremely intuitive user interface, I find the cloud base and visibility layers most helpful. Especially being able to use it in the correct units corresponding to my personal flight minima! Allows me to make the go/no go decision flying light aircraft some times even a day or two in advance so I cancel previous plans and make alternatives in good time..Version: 17.05
✓ Why Windy works for usOur first task each morning is to check the wind forecast. It’s the alternative to a diary when a boat is your home. We love Windy. Along with the important extended wind forecasts we depend on, we can also enjoy the other features that are unique to Windy. It’s easy to check what’s happening interstate so you can be envious or relieved. The display is beautiful and enjoyable to interact with. The longer forecasts may of course change but it’s enjoyable to at least anticipate options. The multi dimensional indicators using colour, movement and the numerical pointer make for a lively interface. Thanks Windy. Life aboard has been a little brighter since we found you. From Russell and Katrina.Version: 24.0.4
✓ HappyWindy is awesome, always very close with forecast , even ten days out. Highly recommend 👍👍👍👍.Version: 29.2.7
✓ ForcastGenerally this is my first port of call for weather. I like to find wind direction, temperature, rain, and wind speed in that order. Also I like to see which direction the weather is to proceed (with allowance to increasing uncertainty as time ahead increases.) Barometric pressure could be useful. Chris.Version: 20.8
✓ Great for a variety of usesWindy was recommended to me three years ago when I was training for a professional drone certification and I have used it ever since, not only for drone use but everyday weather checking and photography. I have recently upgraded to a paid subscription which I thoroughly recommend, especially for the one hour forecasts. Only 4 stars presently though as no Apple Watch version and lack of widget support..Version: 27.3.2
✓ WindyDoes everything weather wise.Version: 39.030355
✓ WIND, SWELL and TIDE’sLove this App! It’s a one stop shop for all my weather and climate forecasts and I use it every day, mostly for WIND and WAVES (swell), but also sea surface temperature. The forecasts are incredibly accurate even days out. One recommendation that would be useful for me would be to incorporate ocean TIDE cycles. Many thanks and keep it up..Version: 25.0.0
✓ Great Companion with your current Weather appI have my weatherbug app and I think this is great companion with weatherbug the big reason why is the 36 map layers I think that the whole lot of layers in the app and weatherbug has 18 that’s only half the layers. I like the wind and wind gust maps because you can storms. I think this very helpful for pilots, skydiving, paragliders and more. Also your latest addition extreme forcast if you think your getting a lot of rain it will show you if it’s normal, unusual, or extreme event Also again a great companion with your current weather app if accuweather or weatherbug or weather channel it’s great thank you.Version: 19.1802
✓ This has got to be one of the best weather apps availableRead this Apple - this app works, it just works like Apple of old used to just work. If only all apps were like this. Wind at various altitudes, weather, metars, ocean currents, local weather, storms, lightning strikes, it's all there and then some. Highly recommended..Version: 16.11
✓ Premium offer does not workApp is great! I thought I should support the developers because I use it all the time so I opted for the premium version. I would rate it 5 stars but for the problems I had activating the premium features. To activate the premium subscription one needs to login through the Windy app. However, I created my account years ago on the web, and the app did not recognize my login credentials so there was no way to “activate” my premium subscription. I tried numerous times using different paths, changing passwords, etc but could not get it to work. However, the next day I tried again and it was successful. I don’t know what happened, but I am happy with the app..Version: 28.1.1
✓ BrilliantFantastic app. Easy to use and friendly interface. Highly recommended.Version: 22.03
✓ As a sailor this is my favorite weather app.We have been sailing around the world for the last 18 months and this is the first app I will use to check the weather as it’s the easiest way to visualise what the weather is doing. I also use it to quickly work out the distance to our next destination. I have to use another app when we are doing long passages as Windy doesn’t work if you lose your internet connection, but otherwise it’s first class..Version: 20.201
✓ Working again!I had deleted and reinstalled x 2 but without success. At last it's working well again - the most accurate forecast app! 5 stars Previous: I use this app regularly, it's so accurate but since update it won't stay open on iPhone while iPad works ok. Fix?.Version: 19.1405
✓ Best weather / global webcam / earth in real-time appThis app is the best I’ve got for viewing the weather in real-time and for forecasts as well as providing an extensive selection of real time global webcams that proves the forecast it provides. This app is very responsive with a wide range of weather layers to choose from. I use this app for real-time weather associated with the incredible selection of webcams…. Please keep up the good work and look forward to seeing if this site/app ends up in VR /AR one day…….Version: 35.3.1
✓ Great appDoes everything expected, and new features improve it all the time.Version: 20.201
✓ Great planning toolFly a plane. Windy gives me reliable information for planning many days ahead of official forecasts. The cloud, storm &winds at selectable altitudes is fantastic. I still get approved forecasts on the day but Windy gives me advance information..Version: 39.020140
✓ Fishing friendlyMy go to app with a high degree of accuracy. I can keep an eye on weather windows watching out for the sneaky easterly which is a kayak fishers nemesis. Reference a few other sites but rate the info on windy..Version: 40.724
✓ WindyAbsolute games changer for running my 2 agricultural business in New Zealand and my main past time fishing. Only negative thing about windy that it wasn’t around 20 years ago. Happy premium member.Version: 40.10032
✓ Wow, what can I sayI am an absolute Weather fanatic. I have purchased many a Weather app and scoured most of the App Store for the best. This without doubt is the one for those who want vast detail, and what is unbelievable is that it is completely free. I am still reasonably new to this app to form a concrete opinion regarding accuracy but thus far, this is superb and well worth downloading. What can you lose??.Version: 15.15
✓ Superb appI have used many paid apps and this is by far and hands down the best weather app on any platform. I now look at the weather more than ever before and with choice of forecasting models available, now I am comparing and working out my own weather prediction alongside my PWS. I would happily pay for this app any day..Version: 17.10
✓ My lifeline to weatherWe live aboard our boat full time. In Continental US waters, there are lots of weather apps as well as local forecasts to keep one safe on the water. Outside the US, radar and forecasting gets a lot harder. Windy has been the sole app that gives us our local radar and forecast as well as all the regular features used for sailing. With the addition of more hurricane features, it has become indispensable to assist with keeping us informed and safe. That’s a lot for an app. My only beef is that when you open the app, it always has the New Hurricane Tracker page that you must X out of to close. Can we not leave that there? When I’m constantly opening the app, it got old real fast. Otherwise, I truly appreciate the local weather in remote areas as well as all of the regular features. Thank you so very much!.Version: 39.020140
✓ Great app for boatingOne of the most accurate wind forecasts for boating on Georgian Bay.Version: 39.10337
✓ App ProblemsHi Windy! Love the app but did the latest update and all I see is rainbow colours going down the screen. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the app and it hasn’t helped. I run the latest iso and latest update for you. Please help!.Version: 29.2.4
✓ Great graphics and optionsI use the free version in NZ. It has a variety of soup for the forecast which is great to compare as they are often different. The graphics are very stylish and premium even using the free version. Probably my favorite app given I open it every morning and multiple times a day..Version: 38.01006
✓ Windy wonderfulI have been a practising professional meteorologist for over 40 years with the Canadian Armed Forces (sea, land, and air), the Meteorological Service of Canada, and with the private sector as a consultant. Positions I have held include Manager of the Ottawa Regional Weather Forecast Centre, and subsequently Director of Aviation and Defence Services providing all aviation weather services to Nav Canada and all weather and oceanographic services to Canada’s military. Retired now and an avid cyclist and outdoors person, I use Windy daily for all my weather needs no matter where on the globe I may happen to be and as the main tool in providing personalized forecasts to friends and family scattered over the globe. It is a superb global weather data and forecast outputs visualization tool. It integrates numerous data sets from numerous countries seemlessly via an extremely intuitive user interface. Data sets such as precipitation from weather radars and strikes from lightning networks are combined into a common multi-national map background that one can scale easily. Ditto for most orbiting weather satellites. It pulls in 3-D numerical weather model outputs from numerous major modelling centres and provides tools to view multiple output fields overlaid onto scalable maps or in tables covering time spans, the vertical dimension, or surface outputs from multiple models together for comparison. In a word, it blows away the tools presently on most professional weather forecasters desks in major national weather services and private sector firms and, best of all, it is FREE!.Version: 20.11
✓ A “must-have “ appIf you make any form of journey by boat, this app is an absolute must have. The level of information available is very comprehensive, and most importantly, accurate. I have used the app in conjunction with the weather forecast to inform my decision as skipper whether to sail or not. The ability to zoom in and see really quite specific areas in detail is invaluable. The app is easy to use, with very clear graphics. Couldn’t recommend it more..Version: 18.0203
✓ Great wind forecast appEasy to use, precise so you have less chance of missing the conditions! You can also create alerts to let you know when conditions are best!.Version: 15.15
✓ Packed with a LOT of useful information - the bestDon’t waste your time with other weather apps. If you learn how to analyse the information given and there is a lot, you will realise this is the most accurate weather app available, period. The graphics are 10/10..Version: 20.11
✓ WindyExcellent. Everything I want from a weather app. Maps show instantly overall picture of weather situation Nick.Version: 17.0207
✓ Sometimes I’m luckyI have a nice RV with a large deck on a lake. What’s on the deck, plants and some furniture, can take serious damage from wind and rain that blows sideways. Knowing how much wind and wind direction is critical for my potted plants, which can happily fly off the tables if it gets too windy. Windy keeps me informed of wind and wind gusting with direction as well as how much rain is expected. The maps showing wind direction is very cool but I love watching the storms on radar. I can replay the last hour or more of the radar and can see if the storm is hitting or missing. I set out to find a better weather app, and this is it. Lucky again!.Version: 29.2.7
✓ Best weather app everHonestly I never review apps, because at best most are simply acceptable for their designed purpose. This app, however, is worth mentioning, in that it is easily the most comprehensive (not to mention accurate) weather resource you can put on your phone, with a super intuitive interface, and greater functionality in the free version than you can get in all other paid weather apps I’m aware of. Furthermore, and almost most importantly to me, this app is basically ad-free, and doesn’t bloat up your phone with unnecessary and invasive adware the way most others do. Simply put, this app is exceptional, fantastic on all levels, and something that I will eventually pay for simply to support. Kudos and thanks to Ivo & the team for making this app a reality. Weather geeks (professional or otherwise,) do yourself a favor and download this one. It’s really a beautiful thing..Version: 33.1.1.5
✓ CreepyolmenYet again another obvious blo and windy weather go app. I find Older men really find this app useful, it’s hard to get a weather app that makes an effort for the older Generation. Also saves their wives the hassell of having to put in little bits of useless information that don’t satisfy app the effort of the search of a strong hard long gush has long gone. I believe this app suit everyone concerned. I bet the Windy is going to cash in as none of the weather app really care to make the effort. Men must feel powerful to source such a map even if the premium fearures completely freeze without payment. No delusion there. They don’t make Windy maps for love. only payment. The wife is relieved ..Version: 41.020355
✓ Best sea Weather App on the marketI work at sea in the Merchant Navy and as a navigating officer this is the best weather app on the market especially as it is free. Very detailed with some amazingly accurate overlays and it gets the weather and sea conditions bang on. Deciding when to depart or continue a voyage this app never lets us down. Would happily pay a charge for it if it came about. Swampy the sea dog 😀.Version: 15.04
✓ Ocean voyagingUsing windy to guide us on 2 trans Atlantic sailing trips.?5?stars!.Version: 40.724
✓ Metars and Models and Satellites oh my!I’ve been a severe weather enthusiast for years I also have a very busy, not-weather related profession so I always seem to spend the first week before tornado reason trying to relocate all of the meteorological data online. No more! With Windy I can old-school my forecasts based on surface data, or I can flip through model data. The settings and visual layering are incredible! Thanks to the developers for an amazing, thoughtful app! I’m just kicking myself that I’m only now finding this. If you are looking for a standard, user-friendly “here’s your local forecast”, kind of app, this app is probably not your best bet. If you are a chaser, spotter, forecaster, weather enthusiast or anyone working in the marine world, this app is the best I’ve come across!.Version: 26.1.4
✓ Most informative weather app there isIf you like to fly a drone this app is essential. I love this app. It’s not the primary weather app I use for day-to-day (Dark Sky). But it is vastly more informative than any other weather app. When I want to actually see what’s happening in the forecast this is my go-to. Also, the wind alerts are brilliant..Version: 22.03
✓ Most accurate weather app out there!I’ve been using the Windy app for about 3 years now and no other app pales in comparison. The fact that you actually get access to multiple forecast models including the European model is quite phenomenal as it’s not offered on many (if any) other weather applications. Many of my friends have come to think I’m some sort of weather guru as I’m always warning them when the wind is going to be kicking up. We live in an area with quite a few trees so being a step ahead as well as warning friends and family is always a good thing. Keep up the stellar work!.Version: 38.10520
✓ Review for iPhone onlyI used to think that Windy for iPhone did not work, but I think that I was using it incorrectly, as I’m used to the iPad version, and the phone version is different. I’ve been using Windy for at least six months on the iPad and it works quite well. I now thin the iPhone version is quite good as well. I like that one swipes the calendar beneath the time widget, instead of trying to drag the widget as one must on the iPad. I’d suggest this feature migrate to iPad as well. The other thing I’d like to see is to have winds and gusts display together, or better yet, have all selected data types display at once. Windy is a fine app..Version: 16.04
✓ Hands Down The Best Weather AppI have tried just about every weather app there is. But now I have found a keeper. Most of the others are either to hard to navigate, too cluttered and way too many adds. This one is so well laid out. It is easy to navigate and has everything you want in a weather app. It has satellite, radar, wind , cloud cover , thunderstorms and even snow accumulations for the winter months. You name it is there. I am using the free version and you are not bombarded with adds or them asking you too upgrade. Give this app a try and you will be glad you did.Version: 29.2.7
✓ Brilliant app that just keeps getting betterThis app is amazing and I’ve used it for two years to predict weather on the ocean. When every other app is wrong, Windy is right. Thanks to the developer and his team for producing such a detailed and accurate app, your work is very much appreciated..Version: 15.04
✓ Best weather app aroundThis app is just amazing!! I have it on all my devices. I love how you can see the weather in any part of the world and look at the wethercams. It is the most accurate in terms of weather predictions. Well done to the designers of this app..Version: 21.05
✓ Learning UserI find Windy extremely helpful. The hourly plotting capability for a passage is particularly helpful and well worth the almost £19 a year. I am finding understanding the various use of colours in the thunder storm predictions a little confusing and have not found guidance on this easy to find or easy to understand. I also find the moving dashes in the waves displace unhelpful. I can’t make out where they are going and why they are in two colours. We also had the misfortune to be caught in a force 8 storm lasting for 3 hours that was not predicted and even three hours later the area was still showing minus .5 waves and 10 Kts of winds. But I put that down to there still being an element of forecasting remaining a judgement, not totally a science. It has made me very cautious of relying on forecasts. I suppose I need to watch a u tube presentation tutorial but everything seems geared to the American way of speaking which as a Brit I find a bit difficult to listen to..Version: 38.10520
✓ Comprehensive weather appFor anyone who really wants to understand what’s going on with the weather, this app has it all! So many different aspects covered - cloud levels, lightning, radar, wind, sea state. Even the more obscure things that gives some clues into what cases particular ‘weather’. The only surprise is no obvious ‘fronts’ being shown..Version: 20.8
✓ Top app of all timesThis is getting better and better. I did ask if local weather warnings (for Australia) can be added, but I realise it would be monumental task getting every weather service in the world provide same level of detail. Apart from that, by far, this is one of the all time top apps ever created. The magnitude (global), the detail, the reliability exceeds every expectation. Thank you..Version: 20.201
✓ Too Good for the Human RaceThere is no way to truly appreciate this in one lifetime. Excellent app.Version: 37.2.5.24
✓ My go to weather appWorking aquaculture industries for the last 10 years and also run a concrete business, I use this app on a daily basis and the upgrades are well worth the money top notch weather app as you can also compare between weather stations between you. I can’t talk this app up enough I recommend it to everyone, pairing this with your government bureau of meteorology website you can’t go wrong.Version: 41.020351
✓ Very good app for New Zealand and worldDetailed and graphically accurate information on everything the weather can throw into one’s day. Heartily recommend.Version: 14.16
✓ Great serviceUse Windy to gauge wind and swell conditions for all my surfing and diving. Don’t like the latest update where the feature that you click on a location and then could push play or scroll though the swell or wind for the week has been removed..Version: 39.10337
✓ Zoom inGreat to be able to zoom into any time of the day and on any day. Found Windy when we were flying into a remote block in Fiordland NZ and the chopper pilot was using, so if they are using it, it must be good!!.Version: 20.11
✓ Windy is greatMany features of Windy provide good information but I particularly like to use the “webcams” as this provides live information..Version: 37.2.0.10
✓ GREAT APP!Great app but needs more Widgets!! Particularly the smaller square one for the iPhone! Will give 5 stars for more widgets, but won’t be paying for it!.Version: 33.1.1.5
✓ I was never a weather nerd... until now.Absolutely terrific, I was never interested in knowing much more about the weather besides if I should wear sleeves or not. However since finding this app I have become fascinated by it, i’ve spent hours comparing pressure zones, deciphering airgrams and learning about snow densities. Thanks for uncovering a interest I never realised I had! A excellent way to learn. Perhaps the educational market could be an approach. thanks!.Version: 15.15
✓ Gotta have it now I’ve got it!I didn’t think a weather app would be so useful, but living in Rural NSW and enduring the non-summer of ‘19-‘20 with bushfires, smoke, hail and everything but the biblical plague of locusts, the Windy app enabled me to track the specific weather conditions pertaining to each threat as they developed. I can honestly say it was literally a life saver for me. Planning a bushfire contingency plan and then being able to execute it as the conditions developed kept both property and people safe. Can’t do without it now!.Version: 22.03
✓ Great app but one more little fix pleaseYour latest update with the menu icon moved in easy reach of my thumb. But the menu close button is still out of reach at the top of the screen. Maybe swipe to close would work. Otherwise this is the best. I use it with my flying app. Top stuff..Version: 15.12
✓ Clear, Comprehensive & accurateEverything you’ll need to know about forthcoming weather in one app. Especially like ability to access forecasts from the main weather models (& to cross compare for given location). This means you can use own judgement in building an informed picture..Version: 29.2.7
✓ Cruising onboard SwallowTried all weather apps for sailing and over a good period of time too. I have often made notes of how the weather is forecast by the different apps and found windy more often than not to be the best. Though none are perfect windy is as good as they get. I sail around the Irish Sea mostly in all conditions and cover about 1.5-2k per year on a small boat so weather is quite important to me..Version: 37.1.8.10
✓ Rain accumulation featureI recently used the Windy app and overall, I absolutely loved it. The app was very user-friendly and had a lot of features that proved to be extremely useful in planning my outdoor activities. However, there is one major issue that I came across after the recent update. It seems that the app has removed access to rain accumulation updates, even for the next 3 days. This was quite disappointing as I found this feature to be very informative and helpful in planning my day or week ahead. As a result, I recently deleted the Windy app from my phone. While I appreciate all of the features and capabilities that the app offers, it simply wasn't necessary for me at this point in time. Despite this, I would still highly recommend the Windy app to anyone who is looking for a reliable weather app. Its accuracy and detailed information on wind speeds, temperature, pressure, and more are truly impressive,.Version: 38.10520
✓ Better forecast accuracyI find Windy to be more accurate in my Melbourne area than Willy Weather. I conduct several checks on different apps and internet before deciding to go fishing and boating, but Windy is generally more correct than anything else 👍👍.Version: 34.3.2
✓ Windyty short review.Windyty is awesome!!! Hardcore 5 stars!! It helps me fish, hunt, plan my kayaking and mountain biking trips so as the amount of snow for snowmobiling and skiing. It’s such a precise application on wind speed, gusts, temperature and even the amount of snow on the ground and it’s density. Sick app, try it out!.Version: 29.2.7
✓ GoodishAlthough I like the app they need to implement Apple standard to sign up so I can use hide my email..Version: 30.102
✓ Brilliant AppI first heard about Windy from someone who suggested using it with fire alerts to track where the wind would blow bushfires through the days ahead. If they will be blown towards my house I take my dog out with me for the day. For a while this was all I used it for - and thought it particularly well designed and easy to use. I told friends about it. Some of them got back to me and mentioned other features they found. One friend gets concerned about thunderstorms and finds the weather radar option reassuring as it shows that a “very close” lightening strike was actually more than 5 km away. 😊 I have the active fires option switched on and can see which countries have adequate bush fire resources - and which, just over a border, do not. Also when Ukraine and Gaza have fires caused by bombing (corresponds to news reports). There is a richness of features, details very well presented, easy to use - I am happy to rate Windy 10 out of 10..Version: 41.020350
✓ What I call a very handy and accurate appThis is usually quite a accurate weather map.Version: 29.2.7
✓ For pilot helicopterBest site for winds conditions.Version: 39.030355
✓ Ultimate weather AppProfessional and recreational applications there is nothing that comes close to windy. Intuitive interface with good information. As Complex or as simple as anyone would ever need. I use it exclusively for avalanche forecasting and mountain guiding trip planning. Excellent work team..Version: 24.0.4
✓ Double chargeThe app is great, but I have been double charged for a premium service and the Windy team isnt answering my emails. A big let down..Version: 38.01005
✓ World ClassHas to be my favorite app. Just keeps getting better and better. All other weather sites are playing catch up to Windy. Keep up the great work..Version: 29.2.7
✓ Meteo officeWindy is The Best forecasting app which I’ve been using. Combination of robust models with satelite and radar imaging gives me very accurate prediction whenever I am. As a sailor and hiker I relays on Windy - it is like having my own, multi division meteo office under my fingertip ;-)) Thank you guys at Windy - you’ve nailed challenge of good forecasting software. I also use your Windy maps and I am equally impressed..Version: 25.4.5
✓ Always rightBeen using this app for two years and in particular the wind forecasts are always bang on right down to subtle changes. Epic!.Version: 22.03
✓ Amazing. Wouldn’t trust any other after using this appThe best source for weather reports I’ve ever come across, as unpredictable as the British weather could be this app has saved my bacon so many times. Regular updates, alerts, clear and very easy to use and understand. Been using it a few years now and wouldn’t use any other weather source, it’s more accurate than any local or national news station or weather service.Version: 21.05
✓ Miss Dark Sky? Try Windy.Dark Sky was a marvelously innovative weather app that Apple brought and then turned into the grotesque mashup that is now the Apple weather app. Such a waste. But all is not lost: Windy picks up the torch with a fast, fluid, intuitive user interface that displays a multitude of weather charts at the tap of a finger. Weather radar, satellite, wind direction and velocity, lightning (with sound if you like), waves(!), air quality, and more additional charts than space conveniently allows me to mention. There’s a paid tier that supposedly gives you things like higher radar resolution, but the free version seems to work well for me. On the other hand I might subscribe just so that when Apple comes calling the folks at Windy won’t really need the money..Version: 38.10520
✓ Fuseau horaireBonjour, Est-il possible de modifier le fuseau horaire pour Baie-Johan-Beetz au Québec? Il est à l’heure avancée alors qu’il devrait être à l’heure normale de l’est. Merci! Bonne journée.Version: 40.10032
✓ Truck driverThe best application ever, I use it a lot in my work to be able to plan my trip, I would recommend it to everyone because it is reliable 👍👍👍👍👍.Version: 37.2.4.23
✓ Commercial FishermanWas skeptical at first that this could depict weather changes so precisely, but found that it is mostly correct. I think a lot of it is due to the quirky geography of the mountains and lengthy valleys near the waterways that I commercial fish during the winter months. Windy seems to be very quickly incorporating these local weather phenomena into their depictions, so we’ll see how precise it becomes later on. Just during the past week or so there have been many multiple changes in wind direction and intensity, and Windy has managed to plot all them out very well. A vast improvement over the NOAA text and audio based descriptions that also lack general time periods when the wind is going to switch and intensify. I do not own a large fishing boat that can brute force it’s way through anything over 30 knots, so I have to play by the rules the wind lays out for me. Windy has vastly improved my planning for weather headed my way. Very surprised Windy is as good as others have said it is, and very happy with this free service. It is rapidly gaining popularity among the commercial fleet here in Alaska..Version: 22.03
✓ Windy weather mapI work in the wind industry and carry out maintenance on medium sized wind turbines. On sites in Shetland ,Orkney ,England. Kintyre and Galway in Ireland . I find windy very useful tool. To help plan if use my mobile cranes this is important to get your weather window By moving the pointer about the map you can see the wind/weather conditions and you can move ahead and see what days me be suitable to carry out maintenance . I also like the graphics which show the different colours which give you a overall view of the wind strength and conditions ..Version: 22.03
✓ Pretty accurateGood for aviation and wind sports I’ve found all around the world including the Arctic and Antarctica. Keep on developing it. It’s a great platform. There is more to get out of the models and technology and the app..Version: 25.4.5
✓ Six starsA lesson to others in how to write apps. Best weather app on iOS bar none. Free but runs on donations or subscriptions. No adverts. Fantastic. 2 June 2021 - widget has stopped working and option to donate has disappeared. Premium subscription cost is *far* too expensive. When planned adverts start to appear this app will, unfortunately, be deleted, shame..Version: 29.2.7
✓ Best weather site/AppI would thoroughly recommend swapping your usual App for this one. My husband has subscribed so has even greater access which provides hourly detail. We use it mainly to map the weather so we can plan our work and leisure activities and for hanging out washing, but it details other factors such as wind/gust speed, humidity, wave strength/dynamics and cloud cover which are essential for more weather sensitive activities. It is generally pretty accurate in its forecasts so our first choice for making plans..Version: 34.3.2
✓ Size of informationNeed to make the text font for information relating to wind etc larger so easier to read. Map is less important than the info. Thanks.Version: 20.11
✓ Great SiteHave been using windy for a while. Great site as forecasts so localised. Just motored a 12 meter launch from Whakatane to Picton over a week. Windy was pretty spot on right though the trip giving us confidence to pick patches of good weather..Version: 17.10
✓ Fantastic appThis app is simply outstanding. The wide range of features is amazing, and it satisfies the amateur meteorologist in me. I've been recommending it to everyone I know The first time in 15 years of using the App Store that I've felt compelled to write a review. Well worth it..Version: 39.030355
✓ App crashSince the last update, the app is crashing. Even if I restart it, there's nothing to do.Version: 20.8
✓ Tom McCormackI’ve used Windy for several years to help me plan and execute flights in light aircraft. It proves especially useful when planning long distance flights including transatlantic flights. It has played a massive part in helping me make informed decisions as whether to fly or not fly. Even on shorter flights it gives me accurate forecasts for locations that are not covered by the normal aviation weather forecasts..Version: 20.201
✓ Excellent at both Simple or ComplexI’m a kayak commuter and my life depends on Windy. Gives a 7-day snapshot of key factors, or you can dig deep. Does wind, swell, temperature, and lots more. Amazingly accurate on rain, in 3 hour windows. It is my most trusted, favourite and most accurate weather app..Version: 27.3.1
✓ So Close To The Only Weather App You’ll NeedI have used Windy for over a year and value it enough to subscribe to the premium level. It is worth the annual fee and a 5-Star rating except for one single missing feature. The app is very flexible and powerful. With a selections from the menu a user can see anything from from a simple local forecast to see the long term trends in an area. If you are a pilot, surfer, or someone who really wants a deep dive in to important aspects of the weather that is easily available too. Also important - Windy accurately forecasts the weather. It even allows you to chose from several forecasting models should you believe a particular model is more accurate. Yet all of the flexibility provides some frustration, and judging by the forum, many other users. Windy seems to have a single default view that applies to all users. So then each time we open the app we have to remember and find all of the menus selections to display the weather the individual user wants. It takes a minute or two to get this set so no big deal - but then again this is required every time a user opens the app. If Windy allowed a user to set a default view this would solve that issue and then from my perspective, be the only weather app I need..Version: 33.0.4
✓ Northland weatherGenerally I find Windy (mainly rain) pretty accurate, which is great as I have an avocado orchard ( reduce irrigation if rain is on the horizon), and plan my golfing endeavours around the forecast. All up a win/win !.Version: 21.05
✓ Practically Omni - purpose !The shear breadth of data that the Windy organisation have amassed is a triumph in itself, whether you want to get a heads up on barometric systems heading your way, check snow or rain or see what the pollen count or pollution will be at the weekend, Windy can channel it all. The graphics are so intuitive that many in the industry must wonder why they haven’t been like this always. Congratulations to everyone involved, and continued success..Version: 21.05
✓ Use windy every time I go sailingI find the interface very simple to use yet with some experience you can get even more using the functionality in the menu. Having the data available has enhanced my sailing and knowledge..Version: 29.2.7
✓ Dangerously goodIt’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..Version: 39.10337
✓ LearningI find this to be my best weather app and accuracy is fair. Comparing forecasts across a number of apps gives me the best rural forecast. I have found windy to be the most accurate and I appreciate that past weather is not deleted as soon as “now” passes in time. This allows me to see what occurred overnight, upon waking. I would like if there was instructions or a tutorial as I am not able to use many of the features. Kindly, Brad Interlake MB Canada 🇨🇦.Version: 38.00004
✓ Weather junkieI’m a weather junkies. We live in the Arctic, where weather is unpredictable and following this app for wind and rain patterns us my go to!.Version: 39.020140
✓ Better than the forecast.Determining the weather for Hawke’s Bay NZ Is very difficult as we are surrounded by mountain ranges. With Windy it’s possible to see what the wind is doing and see the incoming clouds. This app is a great tool that I use on a daily basis to determine the actual weather as it is very accurate. 👍.Version: 24.00
✓ Windy reviewThis is an excellent and thorough app on the weather it is fine as it is. I don’t even use half of its capabilities. I’ve tried to down load the updated version without success. I can’t remember my password and am unable to successfully create a new one. Please don’t abolish this version. You’re a legend. I am happy to make a donation for its retention..Version: 28.1.1
✓ Windy is greatI’ve been using Windy for around 7 years I have found it to be very accurate, not 100% but I think that would be an unreasonable expectation.Version: 38.10520
✓ The perfect weather app—almostI started using Windy about five years ago primarily for boating on the inland passage in the Pacific Northwest. It was a great adjunct to other resources and it quickly became my go to weather app. I have enjoyed watching it improve over the past five years. The capabilities are almost endless. I have not even scratched the surface of many of the features and layers. The only negative is the last upgrade is unstable and will frequently crash for no apparent reason. The people at Wendy seem proactive and are interested in keeping things in good working order so I hope this will resolve soon..Version: 33.1.1.8
✓ Wild WindyGroundbreaking modelling. Accuracy is next level. Aesthetically pleasing to the neurones. Set a benchmark with forecasting that none of the surf forecasting providers have been able to keep up with. Different stratosphere. Always proof read my surf predictions with the graphics on windy before planning a day on the ocean. Blessings.Version: 35.3.4
✓ Very detailed Weather App!! But one thing...This Windy App is a very detailed and accurate app I've ever used!! I've used this app for a total of maybe 1 year and so far it's been great! Would strongly recommend anyone to get this app as it has lots of options for different weather layouts, and it's free!! There is one thing I wanna ask, developers... Is there an option to pay the Windy Premium (in app purchase) one-time fee for *lifetime* than just one year? If not, is it possible to make the one time fee premium lifetime than a year? Have a nice day!.Version: 34.3.2
✓ Very informativeIf you’re really into weather, this is the app for you..Version: 39.020140
✓ Help!Update I want to thank the developers for their persistence and patience in assisting me with gaining access to my premium subscription across all devices. The only thing better than the incredible performance of Windy is the amazing team that provide support for the application. Thank you once again!! I’m trying to seek assistance with accessing my Premium account. It appears on my iPhone but will not allow me to access it on my iPad. Somehow my account has been corrupted and I am not able to access help in a traditional manner..Version: 33.1.1.8
✓ By far the best weather forecast appMost accurate forecast, most comprehensive maps and visualisations, best radar maps and what an upgrade with the prediction of rain maps over the next hour (we now know whether we should remove the clothes from the drying line!). Congrats to the dev team! Can I suggest an alert feature that tells you if rain is coming in the next eg 30’?.Version: 41.020350
✓ Windy’s Accuracy and Marine ApplicationHaving free access to Windy has significantly improved the safety and enjoyment of sailing for my wife and I. We didn’t have the budget for a subscription weather forecasting application and have relied on Windy forecasts exclusively to sail 1200 miles to Puerto Vallarta. Studying the changes in airpressure, wind velocity and direction; and the resulting wave and cloud cover forcasts has greatly improve our understanding of the effects of airpressure on weather conditions at sea and thus safety. Our experience comparing forecasted with actual conditions has found Windy to be extremely accurate..Version: 25.0.0
✓ Up there with the best.I’ve used Windy for 3 months. The first trip up the Irish Sea from Milford Haven to Ardfern in Scotland. My friend used his Grib files and l compared them both to the weather we actually had. Then on a trip from Amsterdam to Falmouth. Windy was always closer to the actual weather we experienced. Easy to use and to load. But remember to compare at least 2 different weather sources!!.Version: 15.04
✓ My favorite appThis app is the most complete I've found and tells you day you can also see the days of a lot of rain. And I can say I've never removed it from my phone because I've had it since the hurricane irma and right now there's a hurricane coming to Mexico but it doesn't offer aAnd I can say I've never removed it from my phone because I've had it since the hurricane irma and right now there's a hurricane coming to Mexico but it doesn't offer any danger. Unload it. You will not regret putting play and you will see the days as you walk and you see the day the hurricane arrives at us. Thanks to us..Version: 29.2.7
✓ Cannot fault itI have used this app for a few years now and it has continued to improve with added features. It is more accurate than your run of the mill weather app, especially when you can compare the different forecasts. Easy to use, notifications of extreme weather in any place if you want. Gives a good idea of how the climate functions. Free, but worth a donation..Version: 18.0203
✓ Near perfectFinally a proper interactive weather app. If you want deep weather information this app makes it easy to read multiple datasets quickly. Best I’ve come across. Here in Wellington, New Zealand being able to forecast is critical..Version: 21.05
✓ ReliableI only use the free version. I like how reliable the forecast is. I also like that I can have 3 favorite spots to click on and see the forecast. This app shows rain, wind and temps when I click on my fav’s and up to a week in advance. My go-to app for weather..Version: 41.020348
✓ WindyAwesome site,Just Awesome..Version: 39.030042
✓ Windy WeatherI have found Windy to be one of the best weather apps available. I particularly like the ability to view four different weather models, and to look forward several days with the predictions. A few suggestions: It would be nice if you could see both the selected menu item AND the particular legend. Currently, after you select a specific item, I.e. rain accumulation, you have to X out of the menu before the ledge down come up at the bottom. It would be nice if you could see both at the same time and just circulate between menu items. The font is pretty small at the bottom...great data, but have a look at the formatting....in some cases things are impossible to read since they are overlapping, such as cloud altitudes. Rain vs. Snow accumulation.......it’s confusing. Looks to be the same physical accumulation data, but we know inches of snow isn’t inches of water.... Would be nice to be able to zoom the map like all other apps........instead of just having several different fixed scales. This is a wonderful app, and I encourage you to keep making it better. Thanks..Version: 17.05
✓ The best weather app out thereI was a huge fan of Storm from WeatherUnderground and hadn't checked out the other options recently, but when The Weather Channel killed Storm and replaced it with a mediocre weather channel version I had a look at the other options and was very happy to find Windy. It's so much much better than the others, let me count (a few of) the ways: You can pick your forecast model! And then compare the different models to see where they differ! That to me is a game changer. The timeline along the bottom is so great to see how pressure and fronts will move - I feel like I've learned a lot just by using the app. The many layer options are great - set it for what you want to see and don't be distracted by what you don't. And of course the wind animation options make for a visually appealing interface. Seeing how the different altitude winds are moving and changing is so useful and interesting. I'd gladly pay money for this app, there are just so many great things to say about it. And if all you want is a sun, a cloud, or an umbrella for where you live that's there for you too. I was bummed when Storm was killed off but am so happy to have found this great app..Version: 16.04
✓ Great but disappointed in PremiumAs a free tool, Windy is fantastic. Because I use it most days, I upgraded to Premium. Although you get better hourly resolution on the forecasts, the satellite resolution is still not anywhere near as detailed as some other paid platforms. Also, it’d be nice to be able to overlay kmls, GPX tracks etc on the iOS apps - this is currently only available on non mobile devices. Otherwise, hands down the best free weather tool out there..Version: 29.2.7
✓ Awesome... mesmerizing.Easily one of the very slickest weather app out there. Nice work team!!!.Version: 12.14
✓ Best weather appAs a farmer I keep a close eye on the weather and this is by far the best weather app I’ve ever used. So much information and models at your fingertips in one place on one app! Great stuff thank you to all the team at windy for making this app! Keep it up!.Version: 19.10
✓ Helping us with the new normalMy city and surrounding towns are currently suffering terrible air pollution due to all the bushfires in Australia- this app has been a great way to monitor the smoke levels we are being subjected to and allows us to plan our days for inside and outside activities- thanks!.Version: 22.03
✓ Please bring back forecast soundings/Skewt scrubbing through time functionally on phonesI 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!.Version: 37.2.5.24
✓ Love this App. Lots of detailI highly recommend this App. My only wish is for it to be available on Apple TV..Version: 38.00004
✓ ExcellentSubject says it all, this app is “excellent” I do have other weather apps but this one is my go to first one👍.Version: 34.3.2
✓ Why doesn’t it zoom in on your favourite spots?Doesn’t zoom in all the way on your favourite spots. When you get premium, every time I go on the app, I have to click on 1 hour times. Why doesn’t it just have that automatically? Other than those major issues, app is great..Version: 25.4.5
✓ The go-to weather appThe first place I go when assessing weather conditions- long term, wide area or very specific. I mostly use Windy for wind conditions for paragliding, but it's valuable for all manner of activities and weather. It's the most trustworthy of all the models I've tried, but like all of them, you need to how to interpret the data for specific locations and conditions..Version: 25.4.5
✓ AccurateLove this app. The most accurate weather app I have found. Always check this one before going fishing..Version: 35.3.4
✓ OCD!I will check the weather forecast up to 10 times a day! A throw back from my time in the military when the weather was an important issue. This app is fantastic! I still have two other weather apps but this tops them. Probably delete them in the future..Version: 38.01049
✓ Very user friendly.Very accurate with real-time info on what the weather is doing, gives you more than enough info to choose when to go fishing or boating. I would highly recommend this..Version: 40.620
✓ Loving itVery helpful, quick easy reference . Thanks.Version: 40.10032
✓ Good graphics. Disappointed that extend days forecast removedVery good graphics and accurate forecasts. However disappointing that extended days forecast has been removed from free version of the app.Version: 38.00004
✓ I’m happy with itHappy happy with windy.Version: 39.030042
✓ Best weather app everIf you’re serious about knowing what the weather is doing and what it will be, you need this app. Even the free version provides more information than any other weather app. We travel around Australia full time with a caravan/travel trailer and knowing what the wind will be doing and what direction it will come from is a huge safety feature for us. If I could change anything it would be more functionality for the Apple Watch..Version: 37.1.8.10
✓ A wonderful findThis was an unexpected find when I was searching for a truly accurate forecast map. It actually works and rains when it says it does, which helps me to plan ahead. I would highly recommend this app for anyone seeking for a no nonsense weather app..Version: 39.020140
✓ The best, but incorporate meteoblue maps?As a developer myself, I really appreciate the quality of work going into an app like this. The fact that you have 5 comparable forecast models that can also be compared with ground station data really sets this apart. It’s hard to ask for more. That being said… I want more!!! Could you please incorporate meteoblue maps, at least for temperature and wind? It’s misleading when I select meteoblue as the forecast model but the map continues to display the previous “map supported” global model (ECMWF GFS or ICON). If meteoblue only supports some data, I’d prefer a warning message saying “we can’t show this because it doesn’t exist”, rather than the current behavior of showing me something that does exist but isn’t what I asked for. Additionally, selecting NAM 5km from the same menu seems to prematurely “snap back” to ECMWF. I dislike, but still prefer, the tendency of NAM 5km to only switch to ECMWF when the modeled region goes *completely* out of view (which is my experience when selecting NAM from the side-bar, rather than within the forecast menu). I’d like no switching at all, but it’s not a big inconvenience. Thanks, and keep up the great work!.Version: 29.2.7
✓ Excellent forecasting toolMy go-to app for weather, in particular the wind forecast. Good selection of weather models to choose or compare. Excellent trajectory forecasting for multiple altitudes, unfortunately it only works on the laptop and not via the iPad yet but with the continued development and improvements I have confidence it’ll be across platforms soon..Version: 20.201
✓ Realtime Wind !Accurate forecasts for wherever, updated most frequently, presented beautifully, scalable coast, country, continent. Real time wind comparable with forecast is magic ! Thanks John.Version: 35.3.4
✓ Best map of NYCWe love Windy. It's beautiful and though we din't understand most of what's in it and the interface is non-intuitive, that's fine because it is a really serious map for people who are knowledgeable about weather — which we are not. But, we love having perfectly fresh information and, living in New York City, we are thrilled by one feature of the map which we have not found in google apps or Apple maps or anybody else's maps — the street numbers of the buildings! Saves us from the annoying experience of coming out of the subway only to find we are walking the wrong way down the street. Wonderful!.Version: 21.05
✓ My favourite go to weather appBeautifully presented data that brings weather to life in beautiful and very helpful graphics. I finally ‘got’ how climate works..Version: 25.0.0
✓ SuperbWhat an amazing and detailed app. So easy to see the whole picture of the UK and beyond and really easy to zoom into a specific area whilst still being able to see the surrounding areas. This is second to none..Version: 34.3.2
✓ Favorite app.I rely on Windy's layered forecasts and current data, every day, for my cycle commute to work. I most appreciate its accuracy for planning my weekend surf missions up and down the coast. Thumbs up Windy..Version: 15.04
✓ WindyJust fantastic, everything you want in such a user friendly format.Version: 35.3.4
✓ The most complete weather appBy far the most complete weather app on the market. From filters to webcams of various locations you can get a pretty god sense of the weather no matter the requirement. One small think that could be included are moon phases and tidal data..Version: 22.03
✓ One of the bestIt’s a great weather forecasting app produced by a team of weather enthusiasts. Over the past two years, this has taken the place of my go-to weather app. Such a wonderful range of metrics for everyone from the normal person to flyers, sailors, environmentalists, drivers and the climate connoisseurs. It’s great that you can create an account and view on apps, web and even your smart TVs..Version: 27.3.2
✓ Simply the best..I used to work for the met office, and I use this app all the time, wherever I am in the world to plan marine operations. It uses the same model data as most forecasts, and displays it through a wonderfully intuitive interface. In addition to its simple display, it is also possible to view more advanced features such as model comparisons, and vertical profiles..Version: 15.15
✓ Getting the Big PictureI use a range of specialist weather tools and cross reference data between the sources; I find that Windy is great for looking at some historic data, current conditions and predictions up to several days ahead. I use Windy every day..Version: 22.03
✓ Windy is Awesome!Almost the perfect app for me, my only issue is that it loses its value once you subscribe to premium unless you depend on it for work. I think if you could work out what the average subscription term is and provide a one off lifetime premium purchase based off that data, I’d see value in that for me personally. Still a genuine great free app.Version: 40.010236
✓ ForecastsExcellent forecasting service. Especially handy for a specific place forcast and using the different layers builds up a good idea of conditions for example when motorbike touring I can see where it is clear, cloudy, wet…. And this helps with gear selection..Version: 37.2.0.10
✓ Outstanding!Incredibly entertaining, informative, and exciting app to use. With so many features I often lose track of time just playing around with this app! And the traffic cameras are awesome!!.Version: 37.2.5.24
✓ Great app for all weather lovers!!!This is one of my favorite free weather apps. It’s not just winds, which as a weather lover and sailor is wonderful, it has an awesome radar system. Shows lightning strikes that light up, wind and gusts, cloud cover, and a great real-time/future option for wind, jet streams, and tropical storms! So many options that took me a while to realize it had. Like GFS and Euro models for future weather and hurricanes. Honestly my number one go to for storm watching and 99% of all my weather information needs. Have turned probably hundreds of people like me on to this app! Keep it going because ya’ll are doing everything right!!!!.Version: 20.11
✓ BrilliantI am a recent refugee from weather underground who have just destroyed their app with the worlds least advisable update. So I have been hunting through a dozen apps for something to make my new go-to source for all things weather. This is it! Totally what I probably always wanted but never knew existed or was possible in an app form. I read all the local NWS Discussions but never before could actually see the eg ECMWF or GFS forward projections to understand anything more. Your app gives me a whole new window into understanding the weather of Southern California and controls thereof. So happy!.Version: 22.03
✓ A fantastic app but...Windy has very quickly become my go to app for accurate and detailed weather information, and living here in north west England we get plenty of weather! But I cannot understand why those of us who own a brilliant Apple Watch (series 5 44mm in my case...) are denied the pleasure of using this app on our devices? I have held back from making a donation and awarding a full five stars until I can use this app on my Apple Watch. Question for it’s developers, are there any plans in the pipeline to include Apps Watch owners in a future update (I hope there are...)?.Version: 25.0.0
✓ Very usefulI like the Windy weather app for my aviation student exploits gives accurate information in a clear format with detail to dive into. I use it with Met office and other info to build my weather picture and forecast for the day or week ahead. I’ve shared with many pals into other activities like biking / golf etc and they all find it useful To be honest I don’t know why the Windy guys don’t just charge an app fee it’s good value as an interactive live feed forecast tool.Version: 17.03
✓ Best app everEasily the best app I have ever downloaded— so many amazing layers. So many layers that no other app is needed related to anything having to do with any natural occurrences. It’s more than just weather; it’s an all-inclusive app that has everything that anyone could ever need about safety pertaining to natural occurrences (for example, fires and waves)..Version: 39.020140
✓ TerrificAn excellent app, replaces another weather app which was good until their updates got rid of the wind map. This app is terrific and I recommend it above all others. Well done! App appears to have failed I am just getting a white screen Help! Updated iPad system app now works great Well done Windy.Version: 29.2.7
✓ Good weather tool for sailingWindy seems to be getting better over time too. Keep up the good work and please keep it free!.Version: 18.0203
✓ Well doneI’ve been looking for a long time for an app with this much functionality, as well-designed, and with as active community engagement. And, at the moment, it’s free, and with no ads. If you find it as useful as I do, however, the subscription is very reasonable compared to the couple of other “professional” services I have seen. I happily signed up. These people are obviously focused on providing the best and most usable data and visualization possible. I’ve seen too many really good starts go down the drain when someone corporate comes along with better ideas for monetization that ends up killing the thing (I’m looking at you, Storm). I tip my hat to the Windy team..Version: 27.1.2
✓ World wide resultsThis app is the best I have used by far. I use it throughout the world for work and recreation purposes and the results are so accurate that I make my final go/no go decisions on the results. Have and would recommend it to anyone..Version: 22.03
✓ Best App I’ve ever usedThis is a beautifully designed app for both the iPhone and the iPad. It’s colourful, vibrant, clear and very user friendly. It’s the weather app a weather geek like me has dreamed of for years and I don’t use anything else. It has everything you need for observations, forecasting, model data from different countries, radar, a rather gorgeous lightning data tracker which updates in real-time and also utilises the iPhones Taptic Engine. The temperature map is wonderful, unmatched in any other weather app. My only passing criticism is still the lack of weather front data on isobar charts but that seems to be a technical issue more than the lack of ability of the app developers. If you can do it I’d be forever grateful! Don’t look anywhere else, if you’re reading this you’ve found the best weather App the App Store has to offer! Best thing about it! It’s free and it’s also Ad free too! I genuinely would not have minded paying a couple pounds for this app..Version: 19.10
