Tres utile for racing

En version pro tres bon, bravo.

Great forecast app

its simple, clear and very helpful for sailing decisions without having to check many different sources. I love the 0.1 model precision . some maps are too small for iphone screen.

Very good

Very complementary global an local models

Best

By far the best weather routing and weather forecasting model existing

Really useful

Really useful and reliable prediction. Awesome to be able to compare three forecast and make up your own opinion. A must app that I use everyday for sailing, kitesurfing or even just planning a hike or a surf.

No

First asking fo sendung pushmails - no comment ( for what?) Than it needs an account. This is not Worth to Download it in my opinion

Great app-if it would work

Great idea , but does not work on my iPad. Too many bugs to fix with the display and logics of logging in before it could be recommended.

Nearly perfect

I find Predictwind very precise in comparison with Windguru and Windfinder, at least for my spots. Good overview too. But the lack of a simple refresh function and not beeing able to set the hours displayed on the forecast reduces the rating by one star.

Not Good enough for that amount of price

The wind map is not working well when moving the map in scale our place. Much Too expensive

Free version ok

I am only using the free version. The wind forecast works surprisingly very, very well in my area. However it is a bit complicated to set up and therefore does not motivate me to upgrade for the pro version at this stage.

Predict wind

Its working great for me on my iPhone Im using this app so Ill know if its gona be a good or bad day to ride the motorbike

Nice Idea but ... Getting Better

Nice idea but when I attemt to register, which is required to open the app, I get a 403 Forbidden error. Same error when I attempt to contact support. Oh well ... delete. Update. I was able to create an account from my iPad. After logging in this is a very useful app. I now have it on both my devices and will be purchasing the Basic plan.

You can do better

Perhaps the data is excellent, but the app is poorly written - to the point where I dont know how it managed to get through the App Store screening process. This might pass for a reasonable app a couple years ago, but its 2013 and the bar is higher. Better apps out there for the purpose. And at least for the carribbean, I find the weather model to be a bit too pessimistic v.s. others.

Excellent App and service

This is an excellent app: it gives wind and all other weather data in more user-chosen, region-specific format than other apps and gribs. Excellent user interface and presentation. The subscription price is reasonable and worth the money. AND ...the after-sales service was excellent. I had a problem and the tech support guys responded to my email within minutes to resolve the problem.

Limited - dont bother with it

Looks like could be a helpful app but so many features are disabled it is essentially useless. I get more information by looking out the window at the flag poles and the cloud movements than from this app. Dont bother. It looks really nice, nice graphics, tempts with hints of nice features, but useless. Just like some if the women I know.. Lol!

Wouldnt sail without it

Great app. Use it for planning cruise legs to get the best passage. Great for optimizing long distance racing strategy.

Great accurate forecasts

This app has been super accurate. I have had it for a couple weeks and it has been correct about almost every windy day.

Oops. Toasted this one

Oops. Must have written my password down wrong and now apparently no way to recover or reset. So, off it goes. Cant re-register as it recognizes my email and forwards to login again. Wont be chasing this one, dont need another exercise in frustration. Good luck folks.

reliable

We use it primarily for wind speed and direction and it has proven to be very reliable.

Very useful app

I am glad to have this in my arsenal of apps to allow me to plan my travels safely and to know when to seek shelter and hide when in the Bahamas.
