I love this app for planning sailing and surfing trips. I used to be able to see swells- on the best model view and now it only shows up on ALL model view. I don't really want to see all models as it takes up a lot of screen real estate. I also want to change the time zone from GMT to HST but can't find an option to do so. This would help me more accurately plan trips. I use android and would appreciate all the neet IOS perks to be added too. Why punish android users because we hate APPLE?

fantastic!!! Update follows: Great app! It's new features make it worth the cost. No need for the other apps I have. All consolidated here with Windy. I appreciate this app! As a truck driver, I've arranged it features to accommodate my travels. Highly recommend this to all who travel and visit areas of potential bad weather. Great way to plan ahead by using this app. I give this app........ 👍👍👍👍👍

This app is strictly weather no fishing tips. Highly disappointed, NOT worth the money. The add I seen on it when I purchased made it look like it would give you fishing tips, depths, lures, colors etc. When your signing up it asks the types of fish, types of locations you like to fish. Very misleading. I does let you map locations. Then shows weather for those spots with a scale recommendation of fish bones to 3 fish showing if it is good fishing during those time and dates.
