You get a lot more information than you initially think. Just explore all around. Amazing little app.
Harsh!

Turns subscription soon after I paid for it. And I paid for it because it was not subscription. Did I just pay for adds?
Great update

Solid update, I like the new default background much better. I use it when I play golf.
Most recent update is a big step backwards

Have always thought this app was essential for anyone engaged in outdoor activity of any sort. The most recent update makes the free version sufficiently obnoxious that your realistic options are getting the annual subscription version or deleting it. Sad.
Disappointed

With the latest “upgrade”, I am unable to look at the daily wind forecast. Now users have to subscribe for that feature. I use the app infrequently and a subscription is not warranted for me. Sorry, I will have to use a different app from now on. I will check in a few months to find out if you have changed your mind. Perhaps you are willing to keep customers in exchange for advertisements but without paying an annual fee.
Don’t Update!!!

Another “we made the app better trick”... Better only if you pay and worse it you want to keep using the free version. Hope karma gets you good!!!
Perfect for skimboarding or other wind-sensitive activities

Perfect app for skimboarding or other wind-sensitive activities! The other apps (google, Apple, weather bug) have always been hard to read for specifics with wind. Big fan of this one!! It’s informative, specific, & super easy to use. The wind compass is amazing and truly couldn’t live without it now.
Hmmm...

Use an unused iPhone and iPad to test updates on... Found if u have the pre-subscription, paid service and update on the iPad one can restore the prior purchase but... If u try to do the same on the iPhone found the restore link defaulted to the subscription page... that is, couldn’t restore the purchase on the iPhone and are left with the subscription option only... Now the app owner may say this was an oversight during the subscription screen layout placing the restore purchase button too close to the subscription button and that is why it defaults to the subscription button... See if the app owner fixes this issue also... Requested the developer rework the widget to show the wind at a specific place rather than the phone’s actual location... developer said they would include requested function in a later update... the later update is here along with a bill for $15 but the requested widget function still doesn’t show a specific location! Btw: The above are the app experience of several days ago and the app owner may have changed the “experience” since then and your experience may be different from the one here... still... You still might want to consider another app...
Good but missing some basics

Overall a very good app. Nice to have real time wind direction, but presentation is confusing by relying solely on compass mode. Would like to see a North-up option, which I think is how many people are used to seeing wind reports. Also the feedback section asks you to select a feature to discuss but I found no way to select it
