WeatherSpork

Great app but needs serious UI upgrade and integration with other tools

The vast majority of apps with in-app purchases are a simple double-click to pay with Apple Pay. Not only is this app WAY overpriced, but the vendor FORCES you to go through PayPal. From experience, my goal in life is to see PayPal go under... And Weather$pork can go with it.

When flying the Cirrus on long trips this app is my favorite

I don’t do reviews. Saw a recommendation for this app on a YouTube channel. Gave it a try this weekend and wow. The Route Profile and Grid View painted a 4D (time being the 4th dimension) picture in my mind. I could not believe how accurate this was on both Days I flew in unstable air in the southeast. It allowed me to choose the best Departure time so arrival occurred during the best weather. This is a game changer for me personally.

$79 per year was not clearly shown. It’s unfortunate they are charging so much.

This is the best WX app for pilots. It consolidates all of the information needed to help make a timely go/no-go decision. Additionally, there is included training videos and tutorials on WX decision making processes. Quite simply it is a one stop shop for aviation WX.

Nothing quite like it available, would never want to plan without it.

Very useful in providing information to help pick the best departure time and altitude to fly. Unique and easy to understand route weather views .

This APP is easily categorized “the BEST of the BEST”. It is the WEATHER decision tool for the preparing pilot. It is not an ENTERTAINMENT APP nor is it a substitute for the commercial weather “forecast” services currently in distribution like weather.com You use this APP for GO / NO GO flight decision making. And yes to those critics who may not have read the description, this APP is based on the “pay for subscription” services of weatherspork.com There is no “bait and switch” techniques at play as several critics commented. The costs are clearly noted in the description. This APP is constantly under development. It is so intertwined with modern day weather sources, the development and sophistication will likely continue for great lengths of time. It seems each update either clears up a rudimentary display from older presentations and/or brings us even better informational views. I’m a FAN. I used to have dozens of bookmarked sites all presenting various tidbits of information; Weatherspork brings nearly all of these into one place. One visit – one extensive self-brief. How could I not be a fan of that?

I’ve been flying for 12 years without this app. That didn’t mean I don’t need it. I did the trial but didn’t really ‘try it out’. It’s not until I bought a year sub, then had some complex weather flying that I ‘tried it’ when it mattered. That’s when I fully appreciated the presentation of data.
