Wind Compass

WindCompass is one of the most enjoyable and beautifully designed weather and wind apps I’ve used. The graphics are absolutely stunning, yet everything remains clear, clean and incredibly easy to read at a glance. What really stands out is the reliability. The information updates quickly and consistently, giving confidence whether checking local conditions, planning outdoor activities or simply enjoying watching the weather patterns unfold. The interface feels polished and intuitive, making the app both practical and genuinely fun to explore. WindCompass combines accuracy, elegance and simplicity into an app experience that is simply outstanding. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates both useful weather tools and beautiful design.

My purpose for trying this app was to be able to check current wind conditions-actual and gusting- It does just that and more with minimal ad displays. I would like to be able to set a high wind alert but after trying more popular apps like Windy that offer that feature I quickly discovered that that is a paid feature. Not only that but some make you create an account and/or push you to upgrade to a paid version from the get go. Lastly the information display on these other apps is hard to read. Contrast that with this app and everything is readable easily digested and free of clutter. Thanks for making a very useful application. I will note the other apps may be more useful for those in the sailing community for things such as plotting a course but beyond that simplicity is what this app is all about.

Found this app VERY helpful in avoiding dangerous high winds in a semi truck with a 53’ trailer which is turned into a big sail. Example was April/June 2019 traveling from Lubbock,Tx to Amarillo,Tx during 45 mph sustained winds with gusts in the 70’s. This was the few days that multiple semi trucks were blown over in and around Amarillo,Tx. . I used this app from Lubbock to Amarillo on Interstate 27 going north. The interstate tracks a mostly straight south/north path with one exception in my case at about the 100 mile marker near Cayon,Tx it zags a bit west then back north and in that spot it would have turned my trailer directly into a 45 mph sustained wind with 70 plus gusts that WOULD HAVE turned my (empty. Not loaded with weight) semi truck over except I looked at the app and modified my direction onto side roads that kept the wind mostly at my tail or “a tail wind” which was no problem thanks to the app. Thanks again 👍
