## What is WindHub?

Welcome on board to the WindHub app!
Built for mariners by mariners, it displays necessary weather and marine info in a neat and simple way. The detailed map will help to plan cruises, races, or nice fishing. 

Accurate forecasts and real-time data includes: 
• atmospheric pressure map with marked highs and lows 
• weather fronts 
• wind and gust forecasts 
• waves info 
• tides and currents 
• rain radar and precise nowcast 
• live wind information from 30000+ weather stations

Top-notch weather data is provided by professionals - official weather forecasting services: NOAA, Meteo-France, Deutscher Wetterdienst, ECMWF and others. High-resolution forecast for Europe and East Asia is calculated by our team.

And it’s not just the weather - marinas have contact information so you can call or email the harbor master to book a berth or to ask about amenities.

Special treat for sailors and boaters in the US is the option to display nautical charts. It shows water depths, dangers, anchorages, and other features. The provided nautical charts aren’t for navigation purposes.

Using the app is easy. You can change units, wind speed display (animation or wind barbs), and weather data displayed on the map. Activate “Traffic Saver Mode” if you experience low reception signal. 

You can rely on Windhub to help you make the right decision. 

We are constantly improving the app and adding new features. We’d love to hear your feedback and ideas at windhub@windhub.com.

### 1/5 — Not a free 7 day trial

*2026-07-07*

I clicked on the ‘7 day free trial’ and was immediately charged £79,99 for the whole year. Let’s see if I get my money back but it is looking fairly misleading if not fraudulent.

**Developer response:** Hello jfkelix,
We apologize for the frustrating experience, but we want to assure you there is absolutely nothing fraudulent happening. We operate entirely within Apple’s strict payment system.
Apple allows strictly one free trial per Apple ID. If you used a trial for our app in the past, Apple’s confirmation screen explicitly states that you will be charged immediately.
Since Apple handles 100% of the transactions, you can easily get your money back by requesting a refund directly at https://reportaproblem.apple.com . They will return your money according to their policy.
Best regards,
The WindHUB Team

### 1/5 — Cancel

*2026-06-21, version 6.1.8*

Cancel
Please cancel my subscription 
I don’t want it I can’t get it to work

### 1/5 — Not as advertised

*2026-06-18, version 6.1.8*

This apps outputs are nothing like the advertised detail, it does not even show the depths! Not worth the money at all

### 5/5 — Misleading

*2026-06-15*

You can same info free on windy and there  is no option to delete your subscription.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your feedback.

Regarding your subscription, please email us at windhub@windhub.com and we will assist you immediately.

We would also appreciate your thoughts on why you didn't find WindHub more useful than Windy. We built WindHub to be more specialized for sailors, with unique features like map-based route planning and sailing-specific data. We would truly value your input - even just a few words - so we can continue to improve.

### 2/5 — Crashing

*2026-03-17*

We rely on this app to get around in our sailboat in the Atlantic. Since the last update the app is crashing every other time I use it, when I try to select a starting point for a route. I thought this would be more reliable after paying the subscription. I have an iPhone 17 pro.

**Developer response:** Hello Captain!
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Does the issue persist? We’d really appreciate it if you could update your review, if we managed to help you resolve it. 
If the issue is still occurring, please send an email to windhub@windhub.com with screenshots of the problem.

### 1/5 — Fraudulent billing

*2026-02-07*

Some how this app is able to bill my apple account but doesn’t show up on the subscriptions list as active or inactive! Don’t trust them !

**Developer response:** Hi, we understand how worrying unexpected charges feel. 
​ If you email us at windhub@windhub.com with a screenshot of the receipt, we’ll help you sort this out immediately.

​Calling this “fraudulent” is unfair: you fully control your subscriptions in your Apple account or another payment account, and we technically cannot withdraw money without your approval.

### 5/5 — Apple iphone araç takımı yapılması

*2025-12-28, version 6.1.6*

Uygulama güzel, Apple iphone araç takımı yapılması gerekir. Her defasında uygulamanın açılıp bakılması gerekiyor aksi takdirde.

### 1/5 — 시바 메일을 보냈으면

*2025-11-10*

답장을해라 먹튀 한번은 그냥 넘어갔는데 로그아웃햤다가 로그인하는데 왜 프로 계정이 날라갔냐 메일을 보냈으면 답장을 안하노 양아치들이냐

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요 KAKA3721님 — 프로 계정 관련 불편을 드려 죄송합니다. 계정 정보를 첨부하여 windhub@windhub.com으로 직접 문의해 주시면, 지원팀에서 구독 복구 또는 문제 해결을 도와드리겠습니다. 앱을 중단 없이 계속 사용하실 수 있도록 조치하겠습니다.

### 1/5 — DO NOT PURCHASE - EXTREMELY UNRELIABLE - CHECK ON REDDIT FIRST. FULL OF BUGS

*2025-09-30*

I made a huge mistake by trusting these developers and paid $60 for a software that is completely useless. You have to kill the app every 2 minutes  because all you will see is a huge error screen. It takes reloading the app 5 times so that MAYBE you will see something for the next 10 minutes. Right after purchasing the app I initiated a refund request but apple refuses to refund. I still cant understand how can they scam buyers like that and get away with this. Stay away. Search for reddit post about this app and you will see hundreds of complains about the same issue that uses post for months. So its not something new.. they know the issue but still refuse to refund.

**Developer response:** Hello Isaac,
We're really sorry you’ve been stuck in that loop of error screens and reloads. This isn’t the experience we aim for. We haven’t encountered this bug before, so your feedback is crucial. Could you please email us at windhub@windhub.com with any screenshots of the errors and your purchase receipt? Our team will dive in immediately, and since Apple can’t refund you, we'll issue one ourselves. Again sorry for the frustration caused. Thank you for your patience and for helping us make the app better.

### 1/5 — 89,99€ es una estafa

*2025-08-06, version 6.1.1*

¿En qué consiste tener una cuenta premiun? No veo nada especial, incluso no aparece la carta marina ni nada. Muy decepcionada.
