Was great used for years for my crane to predict wind changes and was pretty accurate but now they want to charge 15$ a month for it when it was free. I used it because it was simple to use and free now that it's upgraded more complicated and cost 15$ I'll just use the weather channels app. This was a poor decision for the developers. I would have paid a yearly cost or a 1 time cost to remove ads but I'm not subscribing to something for the wind that's more expensive than streaming services
