The app has been working great for me, but recently I'm getting notifications while I"m not using the app about nonsense that has to do with the app instead of anything to do with the weather. I don't want "CHECK OUT THIS NEW FEATURE!" notifications, but there isn't a way to turn them off. If I turn them off from the android side then I don't get wind alerts. Having the info about a new feature showing up when I open the app is fine, but notifications when I'm not using it? Not cool.

Looks like a great app, should be made clear that it's a full pay for app, not just "in app purchases". 1 week free trial only. Uninstalled before I tried it. Not paying $80 for weather. Edit- reinstalled and set back up, X out like was said in the response, and it just takes me to another window saying that I will be charged in 7 days. No thanks.

Thanks for giving the app another try, Wolfgang! You'll only be charged after 7 days if you start the free trial. If you don't want to start it, simply skip the offer and continue with the free version of the app. If you're having trouble doing that, please contact us at windy@windyapp.co and we'll be happy to help.

I remember the app from several years ago. it offered a wide variety of weather data from around the world. Now the app seems to be geared towards simple people, who don't explore but just go hunting and fishing or whatever at the same "spot," and never care about weather anywhere else. This app doesn't even have a temperature map! are you serious? I hope I didn't pay for this app, it's not even good as a free app.

Hello Adam! Thank you for your feedback. We’re currently working on adding an air temperature map, and we continue developing the app based on user suggestions. Please email us at windy@windyapp.co with more details about what you feel is missing — we’d be glad to hear your ideas!

What’s new

Understand live wind at a glance

New weather station data helps you make better go/no go decisions:

• Lulls — know how much the wind drops.
• AI wind forecast (Beta) — get a simple outlook for the next 24 hours.

💡 A big gap between lulls and gusts usually means less steady wind.
