Need this app for ride prep Very useful

Windcompass

Works good easy to use nothing else to ask for

Nice app to check the wind speed, but

App is functional to a point, but does not automatically set your location. There is no way to set location manually either, unless I am missing it in the app itself.

Great! But...

App is great! Really what you need to go kitesurfing... However measuring in knots could be included, much better if it had knots and you were able to chose the location... But all in all good app

Not just wind!

I love this app. Its simple, but it has a feature I didnt realize. I ride my bike and I dont like to fight the wind while I bike. I have The Weather Channels app and it sort of gives real time forecasts, but this app seems more precise. But the feature I didnt expect was the sunrise/sunset and first light/last light feature. My city has a paved bike path that runs through unlit wooded areas, so knowing not just when the sun is going to set, but when its going to be completely dark is very helpful. It gives me more time to ride because I know if I have time to get back to the city streets from the bike path!

Accurate

I work at a Marina so its always good to know which way and how fast the wind is blowing. Its Always Accurate and I like the added sunrise / sunset info. It is so much better without the annoying ad so pay for the upgrade youll be glad you did.

Good app, one issue

Wind compass is a good app that allows you to access wind information with some other basic weather elements. Like others I use it primarily for cycling. My one issue with it is that I have to calibrate my phone roughly 80% of the time prior to getting any information. It gets a bit annoying after a while.

Very cool

Excellent. Instant wind readout where ever you are. And temp along with Sunrise and Sunset. It would be REALLY cool if it could show wind history for the last 12-24 hours.

Bad as Hell

Very accurate wind direction & I was amazed at really how incredibly valuable this tool is in so many beneficial ways (golf, flying, driving, cooking out, tanning, running, biking, boating, etc.)

Its good but.......

I very much like the concept of this app. My only disappointment is you can not view the speed in knots.

Great!

Give you 5 star if had barometric pressure. To anyone else, it uses nearest reporting windspeed, to where you may be standing. That is how the info derives.

Nice

I like this app so far as it goes everything seems to line up with current weather conditions.

Not so good......

After using this app for a few months and being pretty happy with it.........I thought it seemed accurate.........today, in the desert of Nevada, its blowing very, very hard. Winds are about 20 mph per Accuweather and NBC. But this app is showing 1.3 mph. So, not so good.

Poor app

Totally inaccurate all the time. Wrong wind direction and speed. Its a pity Apple does not allow to test the app for few hours before you decide to buy like Google apps do.

Great! A few suggestions.

Like other reviewers this is great when Im on my long bike rides to avoid wind. Best that is out there real time. I would like to ask the programmers to add a gust number somewhere and if you can build in a feature that shows forecast winds as the day goes on. Lost count how many times I plan a route only to be thwarted because the wind changed directions. ADDITIONAL: I have no idea what the negative comments are about. Apparently they do not know how to set the wind direction or utilize any of the great features of this app. They added the page with forecast winds, temps and other elements I greatly need and I LOVE THIS APP! It has been a godsend on all of my rides, so thank you Anapa Apps!

Not 100% accurate, but its great.

Idk if Im the only one, but the app works fine for me. I love it :3

Amazing App! Great for Golf!

I love this app and use it all the time on the golf course. 100% accurate. Highly recommended.

Needs Gust indicator

Fair App Could be a 5 star app if it had a wind gust speed indicator. Without gust indicator only fair and not worth the ad free cost

Twice wrong

First the app has been wrong (both when device hold straight and face-down) when I hold a cigarette then the second time in different location with a flag present. Ergo, renders one-star review. Please, keep us updated.

Great

Amazing App, especially if you are sailing!
