E’ molto interessante sapere che tipo di vento sta tirando nel luogo dove si abita, anche perché ognuno dice la sua quando c’è vento, sparando nomi a caso!!! Oggi, per esempio, a Grosseto, tira il Grecale, come appunto ho letto in questa app, ma tutti dicono che è Tramontana. Prima di parlare bisognerebbe informarsi. 🤷‍♀️ ### 5/5 — fantastica *2025-09-07, version 4.7* Bravissimi... ### 4/5 — Funziona ed è Carina *2023-10-24, version 4.7* Nonostante le recensioni negative funziona se impostate bene la locozzazione... l'ho trovata gradevole e con un tocco retro' che non guasta. Molto apprezzata l'idea delle spiegazioni e della storia di ogni nome dato ai venti. Bravi! ### 1/5 — Malfunzionamento *2023-04-23, version 4.7* Rimane bloccata su tramontana anche con la localizzazione attivata ### 1/5 — Non funziona *2022-04-13, version 4.7* Semplicemente non funziona su iPhone 12: segna sempre Tramontana. Su iPad funziona ### 2/5 — Prima funzionava benissimo ora rimane bloccata si tramontana.Non serve a nulla così *2021-08-28, version 4.7* Non serve a nulla così riattivate il giroscopio ### 1/5 — Non funziona *2020-08-03, version 4.7* Non funziona sui nuovi IPhone , resta bloccata e non gira, un vero peccato dato che la grafica è molto bella, peccato, mi tocca cancellarla 🤷🏻‍♀️ ### 2/5 — Rosa dei venti *2019-09-03, version 4.7* Bella applicazione, peccato che non funzioni a dovere! Il tasto dei venti resta bloccato su Tramontana e non c’è verso di farlo scorrere. Peccato! ### 5/5 — È un’app molto comoda *2019-08-29, version 4.7* Comoda e ben fatta, leggera, senza inutili fronzoli. Effettivamente un aggiornamento sarebbe utile anche per quanto riguarda i fari che sono pochi, forse i principali. ### 5/5 — Valida *2019-08-16, version 4.7* Ovvio, non sostituisce la strumentazione di bordo, ma è molto utile, soprattutto a terra, per identificare i venti velocemente anche senza riferimenti della costa. Consiglio la versione a pagamento per evitare invasioni di schermo della pubblicità mal gestita. Un aggiornamento sulla sezione fari sarebbe auspicabile. Nell’insieme un’ottima applicazione per consultazioni veloci e per i neofiti dei venti. ## Frequently asked questions about RosaDeiVentiHD ### What is RosaDeiVentiHD?
