Using your GPS location, Wind Vane Pro uses a custom algorithm to provide accurate, current wind direction and speed. Wind Vane Pro can display the wind speed in miles per hour, knots, or kilometers per hour. This application also has a built in compass so you can see the wind direction relative to true or magnetic North. Regardless of where you are or which way you are facing, the gauge will show you which direction the wind is coming from and at what strength.

Why choose Wind Vane Pro? We set out to make the most accurate wind gauge on the market. We thought about sound algorithms with the microphone but determined weather station and GFS data is more accurate and is trusted throughout the weather community nationwide. In addition, we can display the direction the wind is coming from creating additional value for our clients. After all, what good is speed without direction?

This application will work on an iPhone 3GS and later as it requires a compass. Internet connectivity is needed to display the wind. Non-U.S. data provided by World Weather Online.

Available world wide!

Latest reviews of Wind Vane Pro app for iPhone and iPad

Useless
Dont waste you $2. Cant change location. Noway to tell what areas info your getting. Data shown disagrees with what sources i usaully use. Im in alaska and the uninteractive wind map excludes alaska-WTF over! Alaskans dont fly i guess! More pilots up here than anywhere in the USA! Usless app! Save your dollars! •ZERO STARS! • your better off just sticking your head outside to look at the wind sock
Wind Vane Displays 180 Degrees Out
App works fine, appears accurate in Oklahoma City; but, the wind vane is bass ackwards--a huge nuisance. Wait till a direction option is offerred before buying Pro.
No more than the basic version
Ive installed this app twice and paid for it twice and it still only functions like the basic version.....no winds aloft, etc. only the compass page. I dont recommend it.
Misinterpreted the "forecast" feature.
I need a wind forecast which is what I thought this apps description advertised. The current wind condition is displayed quite simply but the forecast is limited to a difficult to use topigraphical weather map. That might send a tickle up Tom Skillings leg but its no good to me. Overall disappointing. But its only two bucks so Im over it.
wind speeds never show
keeps loading and loading and loading and loading and loading--nothing else.
