Top Pcmac Reviews

  • Great, informative and versatile

    By Brucemc777 (Pcmac user)

    Not too sure what some of the negative reviews are about, but this app shows prevailing the app 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?
  • Doesn't show any wind or weather data!

    By corendurance (Pcmac user)

    I bought this as part of an app bundle - (I wanted the Sun Seeker app, which has a bit of a learning curve but is amazing! Figured I'd spend a little more to get this and Moon Seeker). This app was not ready for release. There is absolutely NO DATA displayed - no the app, no temp, humidity - nothing! Also, while there is a Locations button (implying that you can save locations) there is no way to save a location! I'm really hoping they provide a bug fix update quickly. As it stands now this app is just an expensive map.
  • Useless

    By Catothelder (Pcmac user)

    Cannot set location. Shows only airports. In info it explains that one should touch the location button ,but the button does not exist that i can find on my iPad
  • This app is pretty much worthless for sailing.

    By Gary Woodruff (Pcmac user)

    I purchased this app on the recommendation of a fellow yacht club member who proclaimed to me that it gave the app speed and direction based on noise through the mic and that it was very accurate. As I stupidly trusted his recommendation I didn't read the description to find that it really just took local weather station data and displayed it on the screen over a compass with a the app speed. A tell tale and a hand bearing compass (or the compass on your iphone) will give you better data on the app direction because they are relevant to your condition and apparent the app at the time. I suppose if you want a quick idea of what the the app is doing without gong outside this might be able to give you a general idea, but that's about it and free weather apps will give you a whole forecast including current and forecasted the app. This is a big waste of money. IF they were to develop a fairly accurate algorithm for estimating the app speed based on mic noise this app would be worth $2.
