Windfinder: Wind & Weather map for Negative User Reviews

FeedbackIt would be great if the user could choose his purpose for looking at the app like windsurfing, kitesurfing etc and the app could list all the kitesurfing spots or that sport. Also tides are missing..Version: 5.4.3

ForecastSeems to be only accurate for the current moment ..Version: 5.25.0

Widget not workingAs a wind app for sailing and stuff I love it, so much so I bought the yearly premium subscription. All the features work except for the widgets which I am unable to add to my Home Screen. I have emailed customer support and have received a reply but it wasn’t helpful and just repeated what the website said and didn’t solve the issue. My phone is updated so it’s not that and I have a account set up and have had premium for over a month now and it’s still not working. Could you please solve this issue, I really like your app and think you have a great product. Only things I think you could add is the ability to see tide times and levels and what the tides strength is and more detailed weather information as there is lots of detail for wind which I get is the purpose of the app but still I think it could do with more weather descriptions and stuff. Also if you could make the app support Siri that would be really good and a nice feature that you could add to the premium subscription to encourage people to pay the wee bit extra which isn’t much but definitely worth it..Version: 5.23.1

Good app but information used is inaccurateApp is generally useful however only some locations have the tides. This would be fine however the tides that they do have are often incorrect thus making this information very confusing and unusable. This was noted for the half moon bay marina location..Version: 5.4.0

To intrusive nowI have been a user of Windfinder since 2013 and find it works very well. But the latest version ask to confirm privacy. When I looked it is so long winded and does not have a NO button. Look at the Vendors, so many of them, most cannot be turned of and they last on my phone for over a year. I value my privacy so goodbye. App deleted.Version: 5.15.4

Don’t BotherWindfinder Pro.Difficult to navigate, no response when the site had problems giving any sort of forecast. Don’t waste your time, Windy infinitely better ap..Version: 4.6.2

The new layout sucksChange the layout plz i can’t select layers i might have to change to another app if this doesn’t get fixed the old one was way better.Version: 5.24.3

Subscription not for familiesThe app is good. If you pay for the ad-free version it won’t work on your other family devices which is annoying..Version: 5.16.0

DissatisfiedDon't bother upgrading to this version as it doesn't work.Version: 3.0.3

No goodThe real wind strength today was above 26kph but. Windfinder said it was just 7kph.Version: 0

Always auto down gradeI subscribed yearly, but always unable, ask me upgrade again and again.Version: 5.30.3

GeneralWind direction and velocity fairly good. Temperature absolutely useless all the time.Version: 5.24.2

Don’t bother with this appElevations are all over the place and wrong, therefore the knock on is that your forecast is totally wrong..Version: 5.32.1

Unable to use app!!This new version on my iphone 4 are unusable. It bombs out after opening app. Update required asap please!!.Version: 3.1

Adds adds adds!!!!!!!!Really good app but I'm not paying just to disqualify adds!!! Good job though.Version: 3.0.5

Beautiful app but wind speeds very inaccurateThe app is beautiful, no question about that. Unfortunately after multiple days testing, the wind predictions were very wrong which makes it unreliable for biking outings as it makes such a difference..Version: 5.19.0

Better than mostThis app provides actual maps of wind direction including changes that occur near the coast and throughout the state. It is always difficult to determine beach conditions, when most weather apps give a direction only. This app shows the actual direction on a map. I can tell, if there will be a sea breeze or land breeze during the day. There may be a breeze out of the south, but the nuances along the coast are different depending on the actual location. First app I check for expected wind direction..Version: 5.14.1

Needs workSYDNEY is how the city is spelt correctly. Touch a location and the app closes. Not looking good at the moment..Version: 0

More adsWind speed incorrect most of the time,constant ads and more ads.Version: 3.0.5

Temperatures often inaccurateLove the app as far as the wind is concerned but the temperatures are often inaccurate..Version: 5.30.3

Just flat out wrongSitting here in Kihei. Solid 30mph wind out of the north. White caps. Windy reporting 4 mph. So yeah..Version: 5.27.1

Privacy tricksIt really annoys me when a company makes you scroll down a massive list of privacy invading options making you click tons of switches to protect your privacy. But just one click to allow no privacy. It should be illegal to do this. Bye bye.. delete..Version: 5.23.4

Un usableFree version almost un-usable due to ads!! Why would I buy pro version when I can't evaluate free version properly due to ads dominating screen!.Version: 3.0.5

A decent starting place.Windfinder and a flag will you a good idea which what the wind is blowing in your area. Trusting Windfinder on its own may result in biking home against the wind. (My experience on several occasions, including today - SW, not NW!).Version: 5.30.2

Totally inaccurateI’ve been using WF for about 6 months. Of those 6 months, we didn’t do several trips to our offshore islands because it said it would be 20+ knots. Come to find out, when it was “20+” it was really only 4kts at the weather stations on the island. Not impressed, it’s been inaccurate way more than it’s been accurate. I can’t believe I’m saying this but I’ll trust NOAA more than this app now. You want an accurate app, try Windy (the online one, not the blue one, that one is just as bad!).Version: 5.10.0

DataAlmost too much. Steep learn curve..Version: 5.32.5

Not compatible with Macbookpro and IMacNot compatible with Macbookpro and IMac.Version: 5.16.0

Wave heightWhere’s the wave height??? Waste of $12.00..Version: 5.24.3

Why did you change the appThis app worked perfectly. Now you made some useless change and now the information is not available. Why? Now I need to find a new app..Version: 5.25.0

Could be betterAdditional features should include a wind directional compass with a clear - digital wind speed forecast meter, then be topps..Version: 5.2.2

UnreliableHave it on two devices, cell phone and iPad. One device reads one thing and on my other device it reads something totally different, same location, same day. I have no idea whether location has no waves or 1 1/2foot waves!.Version: 5.19.0

Some odd omissionsWhilst the super forecast appear good, there are some annoying omissions: It isn’t possible to add your current location to the favourites list; it isn’t possible to edit the name of favourite location or add a note; it isn’t possible to add a location from the map to favourites; the forecasts default to daylight hrs only rather than 24hrs. All of these features are available with Windy and other apps. However, as mentioned, the super forecast is good..Version: 5.30.3
