5/5Simplicity and utility and most importantly works as stated
My purpose for trying this app was to be able to check current wind conditions-actual and gusting- It does just that and more with minimal ad displays. I would like to be able to set a high wind alert but after trying more popular apps like Windy that offer that feature I quickly discovered that that is a paid feature. Not only that but some make you create an account and/or push you to upgrade to a paid version from the get go. Lastly the information display on these other apps is hard to read. Contrast that with this app and everything is readable easily digested and free of clutter. Thanks for making a very useful application. I will note the other apps may be more useful for those in the sailing community for things such as plotting a course but beyond that simplicity is what this app is all about.

5/5High winds (direction?) VS Semi Truck ( high profile vehicle)
Found this app VERY helpful in avoiding dangerous high winds in a semi truck with a 53’ trailer which is turned into a big sail. Example was April/June 2019 traveling from Lubbock,Tx to Amarillo,Tx during 45 mph sustained winds with gusts in the 70’s. This was the few days that multiple semi trucks were blown over in and around Amarillo,Tx. . I used this app from Lubbock to Amarillo on Interstate 27 going north. The interstate tracks a mostly straight south/north path with one exception in my case at about the 100 mile marker near Cayon,Tx it zags a bit west then back north and in that spot it would have turned my trailer directly into a 45 mph sustained wind with 70 plus gusts that WOULD HAVE turned my (empty. Not loaded with weight) semi truck over except I looked at the app and modified my direction onto side roads that kept the wind mostly at my tail or “a tail wind” which was no problem thanks to the app. Thanks again 👍

5/5Blow Me Down!
WindCompass is one of the most enjoyable and beautifully designed weather and wind apps I’ve used. The graphics are absolutely stunning, yet everything remains clear, clean and incredibly easy to read at a glance. What really stands out is the reliability. The information updates quickly and consistently, giving confidence whether checking local conditions, planning outdoor activities or simply enjoying watching the weather patterns unfold. The interface feels polished and intuitive, making the app both practical and genuinely fun to explore. WindCompass combines accuracy, elegance and simplicity into an app experience that is simply outstanding. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates both useful weather tools and beautiful design.

5/5Finally, an app that tells me WHEN high winds start
I live on a mesa in the high desert. I spend about 5 hours a day outside in the garden, etc. All the apps tell you what day you will get high winds but not what time of the day they start As we get extremely high winds here, I need to know what time of day I can do work that requires the wind to be quiet. This app does that. It’s a simple, well thought out app without all the bells and whistles most of us don’t need. Thank you to the developers….really appreciate your handy work

3/5Disappointed
I just can't seem to find a weather app that shows everything I want to see. And I have a hard time finding one that's accurate. I have horses and hour by hour I'd like to know what's going on so that I can make sure that my animals in my property are in good condition. Most weather apps don't show me the wind but they show me other things I need to know such as is it going to rain, is it going to snow, etc. I like this app and I paid a lot for it because it shows me the wind. But it doesn't show me if it's going to rain or if it's going to snow so I end up having to use two or three different apps just to get the information I need. If I could take it back, I would not pay for this app. I did not get offered a free trial. It's the bare minimum of information and based solely on the wind pretty much. I'm greatly disappointed.
