Map Does Nothing
It’s actually kind of shocking that the functionality is so limited here considering the quality of their other apps. The map does absolutely nothing other than show me where weather stations are and a short line of text with temperature and wind speed like you can see on literally any weather app. What is the point of this if I can’t actually see the wind direction like you can on so many other weather apps. They may have well just left the map out altogether unless you care about weather station locations. The sun and the moon app were worth the money, this one unfortunately is not.

Great, informative and versatile
Not too sure what some of the negative reviews are about, but this app shows prevailing wind speed, gusts, graphic direction, augmented reality winds, temperature, relative humidity, wound data for your entire region, fast switch between reporting stations to be displayed on main display, how recent the data is (usually a matter of minutes), and probably a lot more that i have yet to tinker with! I personally have had this app for what i think have been 2 - 3 years now and love it! Maybe the negative reviews are from an area not covered, like the moon?

No 3D view of Wind
This developers other apps sun seeker and moon seeker rock! They have a 3D view meaning wherever you are the app figures it out and shows you the location of the sun or moon and data. Those are AR apps. This app is just not as good. 1. The map location fails to show the wind in any view 2. The wind display is overlaid on a black screen which is not AR it’s just a simple compass view. 3. The location identifier is not precise. It shows you in a city zoomed out and then you have to zoom down to your location (which is lame, the app should know where I am relatively and show me the data surrounding me) In my opinion this app is maybe 1 step better than Dark Sky or general apps for wind. It focuses on macro data and doesn’t help you visualize it well. But as a stand-alone app doesn’t do what other wind apps do in App Store and doesn’t live up to expectations set by Sun Seeker or Moon Seeker.
