Map Does Nothing

It’s actually kind of shocking that the functionality is so limited here considering the quality of their other apps. The map does absolutely nothing other than show me where weather stations are and a short line of text with temperature and wind speed like you can see on literally any weather app. What is the point of this if I can’t actually see the wind direction like you can on so many other weather apps. They may have well just left the map out altogether unless you care about weather station locations. The sun and the moon app were worth the money, this one unfortunately is not.

Augmented reality not functioning

Augmented reality does not work. Frozen on the initial compass direction before selecting AR.

Great app

If you’re interested in the wind direction and speed etc. Then this is the app for you. It’s easy to use and understand. Just a heads up. This app uses METAR data for its data source. So location might be a little out from you. For me who lives in Hamilton New Zealand. My closest location is Auckland Airport for METAR data. I’ve compare this to other sources and it’s pretty much spot on for my Location. I highly recommend this app and the other apps like sun seeker and moon seeker.

Just an update on this review. The app has been updated a few days after writing this review and now gets data from other observation stations so now is closer to my location and Hamilton New Zealand and is now even more accurate and will be for others. 👍🏼

Needs improvement

Doesn’t save a location of internet (favourite), shows random places that are sometimes more than 80 miles away.

It’s more of a gimmick than something you can rely on. Add favourite location with information being displayed properly at the very least.

日本だと観測地点が少なすぎる

現在の風向きがわかるアプリですが、日本だと登録されている観測地点が空港ぐらい?なのでほとんど参考にならない。
