The app has been working great for me, but recently I'm getting notifications while I"m not using the app about nonsense that has to do with the app instead of anything to do with the weather. I don't want "CHECK OUT THIS NEW FEATURE!" notifications, but there isn't a way to turn them off. If I turn them off from the android side then I don't get wind alerts. Having the info about a new feature showing up when I open the app is fine, but notifications when I'm not using it? Not cool.

with 6 mph winds, the app shows 20 to 25 mph winds. with fish not biting anything at all, app says 85 to 90% activity. it's all laid out nice, but the info is rarely accurate. and the biggest thing is, they really want money for this. good luck.... and then there's a question, did the ads get in the way of the app? no but the app sure got in the way of my fishing

Thanks for sharing your experience, James. Unfortunately, no weather model is 100% accurate, which is why Windy.app offers several models to compare. Fish activity predictions are estimates, not guarantees of a catch. We'd welcome the chance to look into these differences and look into your case. Please contact us at [email protected]!
