Hiponautimous Potimus.,
Great on iPhone 8, issues dragging the map on the 11
I loved this app so much! Having lived in 2 locations that are frequented by hurricanes, Florida & Coastal North Carolina, this app is a MUST during hurricane season. I used it all the time on my iPhone 8 with no issues. But I just got the iPhone 11, and noticed one issue I never had on the iPhone 8. And seeing no other reviews describing this same issue (the iPhone 11 has only been out now for 4 days), I felt I should report it just in case others have the same issue, and so maybe a fix can occur. I have tried restarting my phone and reinstalling the app, but problem persists.
The issue happens when you try to drag the map to look at other locations. Instead of the animated map moving to reveal more of the map, it zooms in. Making it impossible to look at other locations, other than the default location. I was able to move it only a little but it was a battle getting it to respond at al and would still only do that while simultaneously zooming in.
If I am doing something wrong, please let me know! But I still say it’s been the best visual weather app out there! And I hope this problem goes away soon! I will change my rating to 5 stars if I can get it to work again.

The best weather app out there
I was a huge fan of Storm from WeatherUnderground and hadn't checked out the other options recently, but when The Weather Channel killed Storm and replaced it with a mediocre weather channel version I had a look at the other options and was very happy to find Windy. It's so much much better than the others, let me count (a few of) the ways: You can pick your forecast model! And then compare the different models to see where they differ! That to me is a game changer. The timeline along the bottom is so great to see how pressure and fronts will move - I feel like I've learned a lot just by using the app. The many layer options are great - set it for what you want to see and don't be distracted by what you don't. And of course the wind animation options make for a visually appealing interface. Seeing how the different altitude winds are moving and changing is so useful and interesting. I'd gladly pay money for this app, there are just so many great things to say about it. And if all you want is a sun, a cloud, or an umbrella for where you live that's there for you too. I was bummed when Storm was killed off but am so happy to have found this great app.

Was skeptical at first that this could depict weather changes so precisely, but found that it is mostly correct. I think a lot of it is due to the quirky geography of the mountains and lengthy valleys near the waterways that I commercial fish during the winter months. Windy seems to be very quickly incorporating these local weather phenomena into their depictions, so we’ll see how precise it becomes later on.
Just during the past week or so there have been many multiple changes in wind direction and intensity, and Windy has managed to plot all them out very well. A vast improvement over the NOAA text and audio based descriptions that also lack general time periods when the wind is going to switch and intensify. I do not own a large fishing boat that can brute force it’s way through anything over 30 knots, so I have to play by the rules the wind lays out for me. Windy has vastly improved my planning for weather headed my way.
Very surprised Windy is as good as others have said it is, and very happy with this free service. It is rapidly gaining popularity among the commercial fleet here in Alaska.

2 of 2 of My Indispensable Hurricane apps
Update November 2020
This Windy app is not just for coastal hurricane prone areas, any location where wind is a factor can benefit from the information it provides. For my area this app gives us a quick compilation of a tropical storm’s track and wind intensity, information we need to keep our family safe. This app is indispensable.
I especially like the landscape mode (which automatically runs for 14 days) where you can size the map to watch as an area from continent to continent or just your local impact zone.
For in-depth current hurricane information I go with the Hurricane Tracker app.
When things start to get locally threatening, I confirm information I get from those apps with TV stations along the coast. They give us in-depth information on the impact of the storms that will affect them/us directly.
Original review ...
Nearly Perfect
I found this app while watching Dorian approach the US. It is now my favorite app for monitoring local wind speeds and the projected path of hurricanes like Dorian.
Assuming we all survive Dorian, the only improvement I would love to see (and would put it at the top of my weather app collection) would be to add a temperature icon badge to the app icon. I would also suggest replacing the solid red background with an image of Dorian in all his terrifying glory as the image behind the W on the app icon so the temperature icon badge would contrast appropriately.

ConCarnage,
So bad it can actually be harmful
Just sat through YET ANOTHER severe weather event the windy app gave no heads up about. Major thunderstorm, torrential downpour, regional flood advisories and what heads up did windy give? Nada! In fact it predicted no precipitation, no thunder storm and showed partly sunny as it’s weather forecast. DO. NOT. USE. This app could get someone killed. Fortunately I have other apps such as Weather Channel which did alert about this and was accurate. And this is far from the first time this app has failed to indicate bad weather, it’s “accuracy” is so bad that I can’t consider this app anything more than a toy, something from a Cracker Jack box. Use at your peril
Update per developer response: making excuses about the different models being at fault is sickening and outright reckless. This is a clear case of “Garbage in Garbage Out” the Devs knowingly supply garbage data and happily let their users suffer the consequences — hopefully after paying for “premium” of course. The Dev response should alarm anyone as it only confirms my review and statement that this app is dangerous and should not be used. I’ll be following up with Apple Store Support since I don’t think an app with such potential for real life harm should be allowed on the store

rf278x,
Pretty great as far as weather apps go.
Very user-friendly for being as in depth as it is, and that makes it a both a joy and a useful teaching tool. But I want more. I’d really like this to take the place of all, or at least most, of the web sites I use. I’ll list 3 things specifically: 1. Access to more computer models. Instead of just the deterministic GFS and ECMWF, add the 30 and 50 ensembles, respectively, or at least a blend. The Canadian model and its ensembles. The HRRR. The UKMET. Any of the big boys that I haven’t listed here. Also some CAM’s for short term. And being able to plot the data in charts and meteograms instead of just maps.
2. Forecasts, short-term and long-term, for the oscillations that drive the earth’s weather, i.e. the Madden-Julian and ENSO.
3. Archived history of weather maps and surface observations at airport, marine, mesonet and personal weather stations.
I understand these are big asks—and not likely to be of much use to most people—but as a 2nd, elite subscription tier for 9.99 a month, I’d buy in.

Riko.Kire,
Best weather app ever
Honestly I never review apps, because at best most are simply acceptable for their designed purpose. This app, however, is worth mentioning, in that it is easily the most comprehensive (not to mention accurate) weather resource you can put on your phone, with a super intuitive interface, and greater functionality in the free version than you can get in all other paid weather apps I’m aware of. Furthermore, and almost most importantly to me, this app is basically ad-free, and doesn’t bloat up your phone with unnecessary and invasive adware the way most others do. Simply put, this app is exceptional, fantastic on all levels, and something that I will eventually pay for simply to support. Kudos and thanks to Ivo & the team for making this app a reality. Weather geeks (professional or otherwise,) do yourself a favor and download this one. It’s really a beautiful thing.
Em Anni,
My lifeline to weather
We live aboard our boat full time. In Continental US waters, there are lots of weather apps as well as local forecasts to keep one safe on the water. Outside the US, radar and forecasting gets a lot harder. Windy has been the sole app that gives us our local radar and forecast as well as all the regular features used for sailing. With the addition of more hurricane features, it has become indispensable to assist with keeping us informed and safe. That’s a lot for an app.
My only beef is that when you open the app, it always has the New Hurricane Tracker page that you must X out of to close. Can we not leave that there? When I’m constantly opening the app, it got old real fast.
Otherwise, I truly appreciate the local weather in remote areas as well as all of the regular features. Thank you so very much!

Beechers Hope,
Great app for truck drivers
As a truck driver in the southwest, this app is amazing because I can monitor wind speeds and weather to make my job a little bit safer since it’s always windy here. we actually use it in our dispatch office as well. I started out with the free version, but I liked it so much I opted to get the premium subscription. I’d say Radar Omega is a little better if you’d like to track just thunderstorms and tornadoes, but this app is especially great for tracking windspeeds, but also does a good job on other severe weather. With the premium version you have access to all kinds of different layers between wind, rain, snow, ozone, temperatures, drought maps, all kinds of stuff. 50+ different ones actually. i’d recommend it and I’d say it’s probably the best “all around” weather app that I’ve come across so far.
sea bouy,
Use it all the time for long distance cruise planning as well as for local fishing trips
I have weather XM subscription on my Garmin chart plotter, but it only gets me a wind view out 3 days. Windy gives me an outlook on wind and swell direction as far as a week out. I find this invaluable for our summer cruising in the Bahamas. It allows me to line up wind and waves to best suit my boat and allows me to give my passengers a better ride on passages. Together with Weather XM and internet weather reports, I can minimize bad weather experiences for my guests (and wife) so they will want to come back again and again! I use Windy more than any of the others mentioned because it’s so handy and can be taken easily from boat to boat. Wherever I carry my phone (which is everywhere) I can get wind and sea conditions. If you’re a boater, you will love this app.
