What's New in WindLimit
1.0.8
August 15, 2026
24-HOUR ACCESS, NO PURCHASE • Watch one ad to unlock nearby airports and the rest of the paid features for 24 hours. • You see what you are unlocking and for how long before the ad plays, and a confirmation with the expiry when it lands. • This gives you the features, not an ad-free app. Ads keep running, because they are what pay for the access. The one-time purchase is still what removes them, permanently. • Settings shows how long the access has left while it is running. NEARBY AIRPORTS • Rows are rebuilt into two columns: wind on the left under the field name, runway and its components on the right under the distance. The numbers now line up down the list instead of running together. • Crosswind and head/tailwind are both bold. They are the two numbers the row exists to give. • Crosswind reads in normal text color when it is inside your limit, and turns amber then red as it climbs, so the figure you are scanning for is not the quietest thing on the row. WEATHER REPORT • Airports Near is one row now instead of two full-width buttons: pick the field you looked up, or your own position. • The selected one is outlined, so the results underneath are clearly attached to the origin that produced them. FIXES • A cold launch no longer reports live weather unavailable when the connection is simply slow to wake. It retries before it gives up. • The crosswind alert fires again after you acknowledge it. Previously, moving the wind back over your limit could leave it silent for the rest of the session. • Larger text sizes no longer overflow the exceedance alert. It grows, wraps and scrolls instead, and the runway sits on its own line. • Settings now shows the version and build number, and both ride along in the support email. ADS AND PRIVACY • The free version now asks whether you will allow tracking, so ads can be relevant rather than generic. Declining changes nothing else in the app, and nothing you enter here is part of it: not your airports, weather, aircraft or personal minimums. • You can change that answer any time in iOS Settings, under Privacy and Security, then Tracking.
