if you think the free version is worth it, it absolutely is NOT. All aspects are worse or not available relatively to what you can have for free from the web page. You're better off just making a shortcut to the web page and making an account rather than accepting less functionality with ads constantly bombarding you in the app.

Great app!! Love the alerts but wish you could control how often you get them. (Once you see the alert and remove it, if the condition persists, then you could control when the alert pops up again, once an hour, once every 2 hrs, etc.) I love the ability to see multiple weather conditions, not just the wind! Seems to be pretty accurate. Wish it updated more often, 6 hrs is a long time.

I have used Windfinder for several years. I fly RC airplanes and used Windfinder to predict the wind up to a week out. I was teaching new pilots and used the app to determine a good day for lessons. I was able set a favorite spot on the map to be dead center of the flying field when I opened the map. I have moved, the app has been updated and I can no longer set my own favorite spot over my new club's airfield or any other favorite spot. And I upgraded to Plus. How do I set my own favorites?
