Outstanding Weather App

I love this app. At the time of this writing, it is way too cold to fly a drone over Minnesota’s frozen tundra, but the Drone Forecast app is still my go to source for weather. It contains everything I need to know at a glance without all the gimmicky fluff that clutters standard weather apps.
And sometime in mid-July, after the igloo melts, it will be the perfect source for weather information before launching my drone. Most importantly for drone pilots, it lays out the current and forecast surface winds and winds aloft in an easily understood format. Those forecasts are hourly and extend for five days. There is also a section that features temperature, precipitation, wind, pressure and radar maps. Again, the animated wind map is essential for avoiding the trap of flying with a tail wind and needing to return upwind with diminishing battery power.
Drone Forecast includes an invaluable world map showing restricted airspace and a checklist of preflight considerations.
Whether you fly a drone or not, this is an excellent app for obtaining precise weather information.

Great overall, but has limitation

I’m using the free version for now and really find it quite useful. The at a glance by weather summary is great!

However, WHY is the Wind screen which shows winds at several altitudes limited to only showing them for 7 PM hourly through 11 PM? That severely limits it usefulness, especially for recreational flyers!

Hi, thanks for using app and feedback!
Wind screen available actual data for subscribers, if you use free version you look only past data

GREAT APP

I used to use UAV Forecast, but that started to charge me money even though I was using the free version. So I switched to this. This is much better than UAV Forecast. It has more info, more details, and more helpful in what I’m looking for. There’s just one thing: I can’t figure out why it is still showing that I have not open the geolocation settings when I have multiple times. Please fix the bug fast.
