Wind Sensor

This application has potential, it does a good job it giving me an accurate reading of the wind speed. Would like to see a better design ; )

GREAT TOOL

I live in Key West and use this tool a lot in my everyday sailing activities. I even tried it when driving my scooter. Very entertaining and accurate. Integrated compass comes handy. Graphics is perfect. Definitely worth the price!!!

FUN App

very funny app and useful for some engineers. Hope to add more function into this app:)

How foes it work?

Ok I bought this app thinking this is worth it. But will somebody please tell me how in the heck it works? It only registers about 3 miles an hour and I knot this wind Id harder than that. Any help is appreciated before I delete it.

OMG!!!!!

This is the best wind speed app out there right now.!!!!!!!

how the app works

Wind Sensor

The wind sensor does not seem compatible with the iPhone 4. The dual microphone has created a problem. If you point the top microphone into the wind it is facing away from you, or you are blocking the wind. If you point the bottom microphone into the wind the compass reading is reversed. Its time for an update. Also the noise reduction feature of the top microphone maybe a problem.

Save you $2

Just tested it during a wind event in my area. Its my job as a wildland firefighter to know tue wind speed. Im more accurate using visual clues than this app.

Doesnt Work

Just bought Wind Sensor and tested on iP4. In 20+mph winds, registered 5-7mph. So only off by a factor of 3-4x and 15mph! Not worth buying.

Junk

Dont buy it. It doesnt work worth a crap. You may as well flush 2 bucks down the toilet.

Wind sensor

Dont buy it. It is very bad

Dont waste your two dollars

I was in hurricane sandy facing 65 plus mile an hour winds, this app registered 19 miles an hour at its highest. Not even close to accurate. I was on the south facing shore line with no obstructions. The wind was strait off the water.

Quick fix

All you have to do is tell people to point the microphone perpendicular to the wind and this app gives reasonably accurate readings. This is a great app if you tell people how to use it.

Wind Sensor

Waste of time and money!

Meh

For me it shows a wind speed of about 3 mph when I hold it out the window of my car when I am doing 25+. That is not my idea of accuracy. Standing in the middle of a field with the wind at an estimated 8-10 mph, this app showed zero. Nada. Nothing. To be fair, it might work if the phone were not in a protective case, but I am not going to throw a $25 case away to use a $2 app. Sorry guys, I like the concept, but I am taking this app off my phone.

Pathetic!

Do not buy this app. It doesnt even work in high winds.
