Comments on PredictWind Offshore Weather for Android

★★★★★ Serge Crottaz · Dec 24, 2019

Easy to use app. I find the free version sufficient for most situations. I may upgrade in the future when planning an offshore trip.

★★★★★ R Rossi · Jul 14, 2020

Really good app. Weather prediction is very good, departure planning is excellent. We used the departure planning for a sail from Colombia to Key West, and it was very helpful departing that coastal area which is infamous for high winds and waves. Integrated effortlessly with Iridium Go it helped us decide to stop at Caymans for a better weather window for rounding the west end of Cuba to the Dry Tortugas, then identified a short but excellent weather window to Key West. Perfect!

★★★★★ Ellen and Peter SV Nonstop · Apr 18, 2021

Great product for getting weather data via Iridium Go, and we use extensively for passage planning too. Great customer service.

★★★★☆ Bill Levett · Aug 10, 2022

Very useful app as it downloads the Predict wind weather forecasts and weather routes for use offline. Only gave it 4 stars because it isnotthati tuitive to use. It could be setup just like the Predict wind app which would be much easier, but it isn't. Great though, recommend. I used it on a Biscay Crossing on July 22, and it really helped me find the wind and avoid the worst waves.

★☆☆☆☆ Mark Dyet · Aug 6, 2021

Same problem as previous review... No grib file download... one dated Oct 2020...on east coast USA.... app doesn't function

★★☆☆☆ Les Griffith · May 9, 2020

Clunky user interface. Sometimes you hit phone back button, sometimes the app screen has a back button, sometimes the app has a done button to return to chart view. Chart detail poor for waterways, difficult to find you destination unless you use a separate chart plotter to get coordinates first then manually enter it. Very inconvenient.

★☆☆☆☆ Paul Hart · Nov 13, 2020

Previous version had land maps in full topographic color. New version removed all multicolor, leaving land surfaces looking like water due to "new downgraded" all blue color. Looks like land users are out of luck as multicolor terrain referencing is dead. I just uninstalled my Offshore version. Still no topo color for land masses. Hey, why fix something that's broken when leaving land all blue is fine for some?

★★☆☆☆ Bill Horne · Oct 14, 2024

I'm a new user, so not fully up to speed with Offshore, but it seems unstable on Android. Crashes regularly (Samsung S9+, Android 10, and GRIBs downloaded over a Starlink connection.) Have tried all the usual workarounds...clear cache, clear data, restart phone, reinstall app, all to no avail. Strange, because the Predict wind app seems to work OK, but of course it requires a continuous Internet connection, whereas once the Offshore app has current GRIBs it can be reviewed offline.

Description by PredictWind Limited Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.

The Offshore App allows you to seamlessly download multiple GRIB files for your coastal and offshore passages.

Quickly download and view GRIB files, weather routes, GMDSS maps and text forecasts, AIS data and satellite imagery.

Access all the world’s top ranking forecast models for reliable and accurate weather data, including ECMWF, SPIRE, UKMO, GFS and more. Our very own PWG & PWE models offer incredible accuracy and a record-breaking 1km resolution.

In addition to forecasts, the Offshore App also provides a suite of powerful marine tools to save you time and keep you safe at sea.

Weather Routing and Departure Planning is calculated in the PredictWind cloud at the highest resolution. The finished route is then sent back to your boat in an incredibly small file size, which is ideal for low bandwidth satellite and SSB connections.

The Offshore App works with Wi-Fi, mobile networks, and most satellite connections using an Iridium GO! exec, Iridium GO!, Globalstar or Optimizer device.
