### 4/5 — Great app - no support

*2024-05-21, version 2.0.58*

This is a fantastic app for weather geeks. I have been using it for years now.

It is a great pity that, though expensive, the authors no longer respond to tech enquiries. As of the latest version, there are outstanding issues, so we just have to wait and hope.

### 3/5 — Bonne appli mais upgrade trop cher!

*2022-01-03*

L’appli donne toute satisfaction même si l’ergonomie n’est pas toujours intuitive.
La puissance de l’appli donne envie de prendre la version Weather4D Routage & Navigation mais… l’upgrade (bundle 17€) pour la version Weather4D Routage & Navigation est impossible à activer !
Il faut donc payer toute l’application à 55€… Cela fait cher quand on a déjà acquitté les 38€ de la version Routage.

### 2/5 — Made a mistake upgrading

*2018-07-02, version 2.0.40*

Hello folks
I updated my Routing version, cannot access waves anymore. Need to provide user and register an account. When I try to register or create an account, it always say "invalid account". Tried to get one valid account from support and their responses does not work...

### 2/5 — What gives

*2018-06-17, version 2.0.40*

I just upgraded and now using the new version. I'm only able to access one weather model, GFS only.  One only, many of these models are free - elsewhere and were free on my previous version of this app. This sucks. Money grab? Shame on you!

### 4/5 — Cautiously optimistic

*2018-04-14, version 2.0.39*

Update: While the new app is not intuitive and lacks the useful, exportable grib files via email, the responsiveness and helpfulness of customer service from Frederic to solve problems and assist in learning this new software is EXEMPLARY. We are hopeful that once we learn the new functionality of Weather 4D we will like it as much as we did Weather 4D Pro (the older version)

### 4/5 — Schönes Programm

*2018-03-28*

Es tut es es soll und die Benutzeroberfläche ist ansehnlich. Einzig den Preis für ein Wetter-Abo finde ich zu hoch.

### 4/5 — Erratum

*2016-03-14*

Mon dernier message n'était pas un avis mais une information donnée au support de W4d. Le problème d'exportation de route venait en fait de l'application isailor.  Merci à l'équipe de w4d de m'avoir répondu rapidement. Cette difficulté a été par ailleurs corrigée par le support de isailor lors de leur dernière MAJ.

### 2/5 — Etwas enttäuschend bei dem hohen Preis

*2014-02-01*

Die kostenlosen GRIB Strömungsdaten des BSH für die Nord- und Ostsee können nicht genutzt werden.
Der Service reagiert bisher (7 Tage)  nicht auf eine deartige Fehlermeldung.
Der Kauf kann nicht rückabgewickelt werden!?

### 5/5 — Gorgeous...

*2013-10-16, version 1.3.7*

Weathertrack just got some competition!  Weather 4D pro is lovely to use.  It's amazing to watch the animated displays and the customisable options means you can display the weather just as you want to and watch it move across the screen in a way which makes it very easy to understand.
  
Suggestions for improvement include - let the app remember the clock speed, so if I set the rate to 0.25, it remembers that value next time.  Also, when loading a 'zone' it should default to todays date and time on startup.  Finally, the display is somehow dark quite often.  Compared to other weather apps I always feel like I need to turn up the brightness.  Perhaps some brighter, bolder colours?  Generally, though, I've never been able to visualise the weather so well as with this wonderful software, which has now become my favourite weather app.

### 5/5 — Weather powerhouse

*2013-10-11, version 1.3.7*

The most powerful weather app out there. I have tried most of the better weather apps on the App Store and none of them come close to matching W4D Pro. The routing feature for sailors is excellent (although it needs some documentation and refinement). If you're not a sailor, get the standard version.

Recommendations to the developer: it needs to have a basic route editor within the app rather than relying on imported routes only. I would like to see a much wider choice of polars to chose from, and possibly an in-app polar editor. The app needs better documentation. Finally, a refresh to the top bar, replacing the low res buttons with high res, iOS 7 like appearance. Awesome app, worth every cent. Felicitations!

### 1/5 — Poor quality app. Unable to load

*2025-09-11, version 2.0.59*

Do not download - I can’t comment on the usability as it won’t load, just keeps crashing. Tried to get a refund but that was declined so I’ve wasted $40 for nothing.. do not download

### 1/5 — Non accès à l’application…

*2023-07-26*

Débite de 46,99 € le 25 juillet.
Impossible d’accéder à l’application, comment faire ?

### 1/5 — Frustrating!

*2018-05-07, version 2.0.39*

I've used weather4d for a couple of years and appreciated its interface and detail. However, the app was recently updated and is now virtually un-useable. Within minutes of switching on the tool bar changes so that it shows the time of the forecast but not the date and the option of creating new weather charts just disappears. I've deleted and re-loaded the app several times - the same happens, works for a few minutes and then lose date and options part of tool bar.

### 1/5 — Nouvelle version horrible

*2018-04-29, version 2.0.39*

Alors que Weather4D pro était sans contredit la meilleure appli météo, la nouvelle version est incompréhensible, rien á faire, image qui défile sans la date, touche retour qui ne fonctionne pas.  Svp revoir.
Par chance, sur un des pads, nous n’avons pas fait la mise à jour et nous sommes actuellement en navigation, reprenons la mer demain et la nouvelle version, c’est à ni rien comprendre, complètement inutile.

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2017-12-24*

Unbelievable annoying bugs.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2017-08-20, version 1.4.11*

Do not buy it if you have an IPhone (7 plus in my case) as it is not possible to open the app

### 1/5 — No service

*2015-12-04, version 1.4.6*

Don't purchase this app terrible service -- 4 emails no answer. I will complain as well to Apple

### 1/5 — Response to email

*2015-10-30, version 1.4.6*

I have written 3 times over a 3 week period. No response of any kind. Having sent them money via the App store, this isn't right

### 1/5 — No support!

*2014-11-04, version 1.4.2*

I;’ve been trying to write the developer on their website but their stupid CAPCHA system is so hard to read (3 friends tried too!) that I have to leave my support request here in the hope he will answer:

=======
I bought your program and have used it since v1. Since I upgraded to IOS 8.1 I get a message now about having to pay you $33 for a HD weather forecast or else the program stops working. It[’s useless now unless I pay you an additional $33. 

I just need the basic weather not any HD stuff. I already paid your $30+ for the program.

Can you look into this for me?

Thanks, Art

### 1/5 — Won't Launch since update bugged

*2014-10-06, version 1.4.1*

I'm using iOS 8.02. Just updated this app and it won't launch. It just crashes each time I try to run it. Rebooted my iPad but same.

Needs an urgent fix please.

### 5/5 — Previous review not correct...

*2019-07-02, version 2.0.44*

Had problems when first loading Weather4D Pro with routing problems similar to previous reviews. Corrected fault by switching downloads via mobile data ON. No further problems so far. Great app well done...

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2018-08-19*

Appli extrêmement complète pour naviguer au quotidien, avec météo (plusieurs modèles au choix) et routage de qualité.
Pour la prise en main, il est indispensable de suivre le tutoriel complet réalisé par Francis Fustier, mais ensuite, l'appli devient facile d'utilisation.
Bravo à Olivier Bouyssou pour cet outil remarquable !

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2018-07-18*

Beau travail d’affichage, belle évolution avec les routes intégrées et la gestion des waypoints et avec tous les modèles dispo pour un abonnement dérisoire, le routage est top.

### 5/5 — Formidable

*2017-08-29*

Cet application est facile à mettre en place, et très ludique. Navigateur et amateur, prenez votre temps pour choisir vos options en lisant petit à petit le guide pour configurer vos requêtes. Vous verrez, Weather4D pro est plus facile à utiliser que Navnet 3D furuno .

### 5/5 — Excellente application

*2016-01-24*

Tous les navigants Cruising Partner l'utilisent pour gagner le large. Facile, simple, un bel outil pour gérer la météo,  assurer un routage et naviguer en sécurité. On attend la prochaine version intégrant les cartes marines....

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2015-01-14, version 1.4.2*

Tried several weather apps before this one. Now this is the only one we use or need. Does a beautiful job of requesting compressed grabs over the sat connection and displays the data in a most useful and also beautiful format. Suggest you buy the tutorial to unlock all the features.

### 5/5 — Excellente appli très complète

*2014-10-08*

Fonctionnement parfaitement rétabli avec la MàJ du 8 octobre.

### 5/5 — Great app for sailors

*2014-10-08, version 1.4.2*

I have taken multiple cruises across the Gulf of Mexico and found this app invaluable. Being able to plan out the best route days in advance given wind conditions and avoid choppy waters has come in handy on many occasions. This type of software isn't cheap for a pc - amazing what you get for the price.

### 5/5 — Awesome application

*2014-02-04, version 1.4.0*

Great application for anyone interested in the weather!!!

### 5/5 — Precisions

*2014-01-30*

Mode d'emplois : prévoir 8€ supplémentaires
Routage : prévoir application payante (>30€) cartographie comprise? 
Finalement la version 4d pro permet uniquement la lecture de grib (bien faite cependant). 
J'aurais aimé être informé de ces suppléments tarifaires avant mon achat. Je ne l'aurais pas effectué...
