I like all that it can do but it misses out on some basic weather app functions. I really wish I could have a widget that showed me the current temperature, daily high, and daily low. And im the opened app, a weekly forecast would be nice to. Currently I can see hourly breakdowns for the week but I'm not able to quickly, at a glance, see what the coming up week is going to be like or even what the current temperature is. For all it's great functions, I just end up not using the app.

This app is doing a great job of showing me all the info I want to see to plan SUP outings. It took me a bit to find the water temperature display - I got that by creating a custom profile using foiling as a starting point, and I added a field to the new profile. I saw a post saying that the iOS app has a water temperature layer on the map. It seems that the Android app does not? That would be nice to have.

Thank you for your fantastic feedback, Jesse! We’re glad to hear you’re enjoying the app. Correct, iOS app has a water temperature layer on the map. We’re working on adding the water temperature layer to the Android version as well. Stay tuned for updates! 🌊Thanks again for your support!

The weather info is accurate and clearly represented. The problem I have with the app is that it is trying to be a social media platform. Why would I want to share photos or chat in my weather app? I could ignore that aspect, if not for my second complaint. The user has very limited ability to customize what they see on the home screen. There are features such as "Favorites", "Community", and "Nearest Spots" that I do not care about but cannot shut them off. They are just clutter.

Thank you for your feedback! It’s understandable that you prefer a weather app focused solely on forecasts. While some users enjoy community interactions, others find them distracting. At the moment our app doesn't have customization options for the main screen layout. If you have any questions or comments please contact us at windy@windyapp.co!

What's new

New Wave Model

We've added another global swell forecasting model to the app - WaveWatch III from NOAA! Now you can check out the 10-day forecast for swell size, direction, period, and swell energy.
To access the data, add it to an existing custom profile or create a new one.
Custom profile capabilities are available in the PRO version.
