Comments on Windfinder: Wind & Weather map for Android

★★★★★ StandUp TheSoryu · Apr 4, 2026

It's been great for keeping track of the waves/weather. It's also really nice how with the super-forecast you can get a more accurate description for 3 days. To be able to just use one app for almost everything you need to know about surfing is awesome. I took a vacation for a few days and was able to go out and see 10-ft waves at Port Bruce. If you're looking for a good wind finding app this is the one.

★★★★★ ez lv · May 14, 2026

Landsailer here. Wind finder forecast are normally spot on, for Ivan pah, dry lake.

★★★★★ Jim Phelps · Mar 12, 2026

Great sailing club source for wind forecasts.

★☆☆☆☆ Dump Ling · May 23, 2026

I should say Cancel and Navigate button under my phone, if I'm using my Google Account, I'm cancelling to back home, stop saying error and failed, These words are disrespectful, So people can't say okay at all, They can't respect that, Some people won't say okay, if some people don't want to say ok, I need the navigate button will work to cancel, not only okay button.

★☆☆☆☆ Jared Waters · Jul 6, 2026

Unfortunately not very accurate. Wind was usually 2x faster than forecast. Government of Canada forecasts were much more accurate for sailing.

★☆☆☆☆ Sean · Jul 3, 2026

What is the point of this? The amazing, helpful, FREE weather service from the website is instead paywalled, and you're bombarded with ads? Why would I ever use this instead of just opening the website? EDIT: It absolutely is a good reason for 1 star. When you open the website on your phone, it nags you to open the app, and then the app is paywalled. If other users don't mind, those users can leave better reviews. I'm pissed, so I won't. Everything becoming a subscription now is miserable.

★☆☆☆☆ Jack Hendricks · Mar 19, 2026

Sick of temu ads they have inappropriate pictures I have removed it used to be I would select as inappropriate, and it would change the ADD but just fine the ads are fine but the inappropriate pictures not okay. And I've edited this it's been a couple of days and his company cares so little they haven't even replied, so I'm out good app otherwise

★☆☆☆☆ Zen Zen · Mar 8, 2026

App is not functioning properly. It used to be and that's why I subscribed in the paid version. But after facing so many problems like app updating and not displaying waves height of the same day, I had to cancel my subscription. Even now we are on Sunday, March 8, 2026, and the app is not displaying the waves of this day 🤦🏼‍♀️. This app keeps having bugs and errors and there are no clear efforts from the developers to fix it!!!!!!!
