Comments on Windfinder Pro: Wind & Weather for Android

★★★★★ Harry Palmes · Jun 4, 2026
Excellent widget for the home screen - can see at a glance if kite surfing is on at the weekend!
★★★★☆ tightwad sailor · Jun 6, 2024
The optimum forecast for coastal sailing. Exceptionally good in the Solent, even for the sea breeze effects.
★★★★★ Dany Salvail · Jun 19, 2024
Accurate, and a great tool for sailing. Gets wind speed and direction to within 30 minutes in forecasts, and prett much right in intensity.
★★★★★ GHILLIEMAN · Jun 2, 2024
NEAR WW3,or NUCLEAR PLANT? Live near/downwind of a potential critical incident, including nuclear power, chemical plants and other nasty sites? Used as a predictive tool in your survival cache, Wind Finder Pro allows you to create a circle of prevailing wind locations around you. Predicted winds and weather forecasts are stored in cache on your device so that if the grid goes down you still have a prediction of what may be coming your way to help protect those who God placed in your stewardship.☺
★☆☆☆☆ james mamo · Feb 10, 2025
Accurate with forecast but super forecast always wrong and doesn't match with forecast. I'm on a paid subscription but will definitely cancel after this.
★☆☆☆☆ Martin · Aug 8, 2026
Extremely basic. Helpful for windsurfing kiteboarding etc ... but not for sailing and cruising where information about current, waves and tides is also essential. I installed it because online they claim to also give information about waves and tides. However, after installing wind finder pro, all I could ever find on the app was wind forecast, there's nothing about waves or tides. And if there is, then that information is so well hidden in some kind of menu that I couldn't find it so far.
★☆☆☆☆ Haydn Huston · Jul 31, 2025
I really do not get the fanfare, very basic, doesn't compete with other apps with mixing layers etc. and very limited weather information. Wind, rain, temperature that's pretty much your lot. Disappointing and I've far cheaper apps that far exceed this.
★★☆☆☆ የየየᖊ ᘉ൩ᕂኒኒጦᖊኡኴ · Mar 25, 2024
As a subscriber I'm not entirely happy with the customization options. In general the app does what it is supposed to do. I'm often out at night fishing. A dark mode would be very helpful since it doesn't ruin my night sight. There is no transparency option for the widgets. The App and the widgets are glaringly white night and day. Not great at all.
