Great for planning fishing trips offshore

Excellent application

Amazing app - very accurate

I love iWindsurf it is the most accurate wind app out there …

Wind Forecasts

They no longer show. Just a blank topo map. If you toggle around between models you can get something to show but sometimes it is by the hour, sometimes every 4 hours. Come on guys! Used to be great. Now just an exercise in frustration. I am about to give up my paid subscription.

Session saver

Ive been running my school since 2003 using I windsurf and I kitesurf as go to source. Successful sessions are planned; some are spontaneous... relying on up to date accurate forecasts ! Thank you guys for all you do to maximize information availability !! Laurel Kaiser Island Style Watersports

You got it, Laurel. And THANK YOU for doing what you do. ;)

More sensors and fewer forecasts

I have been paying for iWindsurf for years. I do like the sensor data for Sites on the Columbia river Gorge. However, the forecast are not as useful as they used to be. In the past, there were two forecast a day and each of them indicated the time that they were posted. Now there’s just one forecast today and since the time is not recorded, I suspect that the forecast from the day before may simply be copied over to the next day. Maybe I’m wrong. But I wish the forecast would indicate the date and time that they’re posted.

Great app

Nice historical data and forecasting

Great for wind!

Great for wind!

Strong App - Minor Bugs

Good app, very helpful for predicting windswell for surfing the Great Lakes. I like being able to demo different models. Sometimes it loses my favorites but seems to happen less often. Could use larger font on the maps.

Awesome site

Very useful and accurate

Works well

Good wind finder

Great app!

What can I say, it’s a great app for wind forecast in planning. Couldn’t ask for more.

What a disaster this update is

This update turned the usage into a nightmare.

1. The wind numbers as shown in the wind list are different from those inside the location. This forces you to go in, wait for the slow updating and jumping UI and do it over and over again

2. The site details used to be handy and useful, now we have a “graph” tab which shows the same details as in the Report, so you have to skip a tab and continue to forecast etc

3. The app is slower to load and just feels cranky.

I am probably going to cancel my subscription, as much as I wanted to support the app. It feels like those who develop it, are detached from how people use the app.

Thanks for the feedback. Slower and cranky is definitely not what we are going for. Please reach out to our Support team so we can look into what you are seeing and improve your experience: Main Menu > Settings & Help > Contact Us.

Pro is awesome!

Knowing the actual conditions with less than 10min delay at my favorite spots is a huge level up

Favorites disappear

Several times have to re enter favorites. Frustrating

Color Scheme

The new color scheme took me a while to get used to but now I like it.

A great tool!!

We spend all this money on Wind surf, kite, wing equipment— the cost of an I-windsurf subscription is well worth it to maximize the use of that gear!😀 their forecasts aren’t always right, but they are a lot better than mine😀😀

Apple Watch support?

What happened to the Apple Watch complication? It was useful even if it had lag…

Great info

Easy to use

My Goto!

Awesome app! I live by what the wind is doing so it’s no surprise I paid for the Pro version as I open it up several times a day!
