best weather app for actually getting your head around what the weather is going to do. I use it for surfing, about to buy a sailing boat so will subscribe at that stage but it's got enough going on for free without being too in your face about spending money. One suggestion, it can be tricky to match colours to the heatmap key at the top of the weather maps so an arrow against the colour for that particular hour would be helpful. Recomended though, good work!

Upgrade to the pro version. I find it a good app, but would like more things like cloud cover and rain to be more visible. It would be great to add these to the layer menu as they would give you a visual idea of what the weather is like in your area. I paid for the pro version for life, which I think is a pretty good value proposition. I use it for sailing and find the modeling quite easy to read and accurate. I hope they keep adding more features and developing it in the future.

Uninstalled. Looked pretty good at first, access to multiple models, able to compare, detailed forecasts even in the free version. Less than a week later (before testing it out completely), all of that is locked behind the Pro subscription. Now, you only get a mid-confidence, short-range forecast from what appears to be a non-local provider, plus a screen littered with little Pro symbols and a big subscribe button. As an aside, no, I did not initially sign up to a trial for more features.

Hello Christopher! Thanks for the feedback! Most likely, the free tour was available to you for several days. We're sorry this confused you. The free version is fully functional, with a 10-day forecast. But as you mentioned, there are more weather models available in the Pro version. If you have any questions, contact us at windy@windyapp.co.

What’s new

📈 Best Model vol. 2
Best Model used to stop early. The most accurate model for your spot is sometimes a short one — two days, and that's it.
Now it hands over. When the first model ends, the next best one picks up, then the next. Ten days, each covered by the best model available.
You don't need to know a thing about models to get the Best one!
