21 Positive User Reviews for UAV Forecast
Preview?!?
I love(d) this app and used it as my first check for conditions before flying. I went to use it yesterday and saw that what it was showing did NOT match the conditions. Then I noticed in small text that it said “Preview” and wondered when that happened and what it meant - did I now have to pay? Fortunately I also have AirData and was able to check the situation on there. I definitely would give the app 5 stars but had to dock it one for suddenly going to subscription. I get it but am also disapp
My Go To App for Flying
I’ve been using this app for a while now and find that it is perfect for anyone who needs to know local conditions before flying (everybody.) The simple, intuitive interface tells you all you need to know at a glance and it is easy to configure for your personal preferences. The forecast feature is very useful as well. Highly recommend this app for all UAV enthusiasts!
Was good until free plan was removed
Used to utilize the app for weather reference before flying my drone but never got any notifications that my free plan was ending and used this app for 2 years
the most amazing flight forecast at a glance!
I love this app! it gives you everything you'd want to see at a glance as soon as you open the app! many thanks to the developer, you are a rockstar!
Review
A bunch of us from Central Florida use this app. We plan our experimental aircraft flights with gyro Trike’s and Searey aircraft up to a week in advance. It’s been a very reliable and vibrant app. We are very happy !! good job!!
Good stuff
Got this after I got my part 107 really makes go or no go super simple to see. Worth every penny!
A must for drone pilots
Has everything a drone pilot could need and some. I love the customization you can do to it. And being able to save multiple areas if you wanna check the weather for one area all you gotta do is select it. Nice job on this one.
Accurate
I have relied on this app a lot operating in remote locations. It is surprisingly accurate and I’ve implemented it!into how my company operates UAS.
Solid app
Great app very helpful when I’m flying my drone
Jive
Sometimes it doesn’t match the area of interest.
Droning On
I never fly my drone without checking the UAV Forecast. It is more reliable than anything else I have tried. The wind at different levels can really toss around a drone if you fly without the proper information. That can lead to ruined footage or worse a damaged or heaven forbid lost drone. A most worthwhile and affordable app for amateur or professional photographer or cinematographer.
Seguridad y absoluta confiabilidad
Excelente recurso para el vuelo de drones y muy seguro
Need something you can count
We use UAV anywhere every day to plan our work schedule for the drones. You can go to the bank with this app regardless if you’re just having fun with your drone or planning work schedule for work.
Great App
This great app! I used this app extensively for seven years when flying my drones. However, I would rate it a five star app but the weather predictions are even close to being 100% accurate. Neither is it parallel in its prediction with similar weather apps predictions.
Kp index
Kp index is wrong
App says 2 Kp
Drone buddy says 6KP
So does noaa 6 Kp
Gordon Stewart paramotor pilot
I do not fly drones !
I use this site for weather and wind for flying my paramotor
A must have for any drone pilot.
Definitely an app that all drone pilots should have. It allows me to not only plan but feel confident before heading out the door that my flight will be enjoyable and my drones safe.
Best app for UAS operations.
This is hands down the best weather/conditions app for remote pilots. They even gave me a refund when I upgraded my subscription for my unused credit. Very satisfied and the app has not let me down so far.
3 Negative User Reviews for UAV Forecast
Wanted to like it
I even paid for a subscription, but at least for my area it’s completely inaccurate, especially for wind speed.
I do like the interface but that’s about it.
Canceling subscription and will probably use another source.
Also, for the monthly fee for the hobby user there should be more offered, but still does not help with it being inaccurate.
Thanks anyhow
Features locked behind “subscribers” lock
Features that have been available for free such as changing the wind altitude from 100ft to 400ft has now been locked behind a $1 a month charge. I dont need this app to see the data, just a convenient layout but apparently they NEED money for it. Fun while it lasted but this data does not need to be payed for
Similar to pay to play
This app was great. But ever so slowly, they started limiting the amount you can see. For the free version, it went from 48hr down to 24hr, then down to 3hr. Now they just limited it even more by only allowing you to see up to 100ft AGL whereas it was up to 400ft AGL. It makes you pay for it to have any use. I guess for a pilot that does small stuff, it works great. But for anyone else, it doesn’t anymore.
