Gustline
Read full descriptionHide full description
Gustline shows live wind direction and an overnight shelter forecast for wherever you're camping — built to keep working long after you lose signal. WIND, AT A GLANCE A compass-style readout shows current wind direction, speed, and gusts, with a live map underneath so you can see exactly where you are. Scrub the hour-by-hour timeline to see how wind is forecast to shift through the day and overnight. KNOW WHERE TO PITCH YOUR TENT Gustline doesn't just show numbers — it tells you what to do with them. Its overnight shelter advisory calls out the strongest overnight gusts and which direction they're coming from, so you know which side needs a windbreak before you set up camp. WORKS WITH NO SIGNAL Open Gustline once while you still have a connection, and the forecast and map both cache automatically. From then on, everything keeps working in airplane mode — no signal needed once you've arrived. READABLE IN BRIGHT SUN A dark theme built for reading at night, and a light theme built for reading in direct sunlight — switch anytime in Settings. NO ACCOUNTS. NO ADS. NO TRACKING. Gustline doesn't ask you to sign up for anything. There's no advertising and no crash-reporting SDKs, and nothing about you is bought or sold. Your location is used only to fetch the forecast and show your position on the map — see the full privacy policy for exactly what's sent and to whom.
