Anybody else use the iPhone app for wind? I’ve checked several and it is the most accurate for rain but most of all the wind gust. Most app just give constant wind speed. I can’t do the 25mph and up gust. Them white caps kill me. Cant go tomorrow but Fridays looking good

It’s the actual weather app on your iPhone. Just click the day you want more information on and on the right side of the screen you will see the drop down arrow with clouds (to right of temperatures) and change it to wind.Quote:

I do use it a lot and also use the windy.app (blue one) to compare forecasts. I think both are great

Like Lund said it’s the Apple app that is standard on iPhones. The name of the app is “weather” . Here’s what it looks like in the app store

This apple weather app does minute by minute on all forecast screens including barometric pressure. Just touch the screen and scroll left to right. I use the wsfa weather app with active captain also and get alerts so when my Garmin ultra screen says 'lightning detected 10 miles away from your location" it's time to put it on the trailerQuote:

I like it a lot as there is a map and you choose a location and also can create a spot (like the area of the lake normally fish). By creating a favorite spot it gives more accurate for that area.Quote:

You can also check the different types of forecasts in windy. Try it as it’s free! (Does have premium stuff too)

I will check that out. Thx. I do use several saved locations so I can get more current & accurate weather reports on different areas of the lakes. Ive figured out how to get alerts on screen with active captain, like "rain 1 mile from your location or lightning 10 miles away" but would be nice to get the live radar from my phone to the Ultra so Im not having to get the phone out so much when fishing right up to the storm
I like the accuweather app. I used to use weather underground a while ago, but I can't speak on how it is now.

is something I use a lot !
you can zoom in on your area and see the direction of the wind !
