WindZap






 


WindZap an App & Service that lets you get Realtime information of the wind speed, wind direction, gust. Its primarily designed for wearable devices.

The locations currently supported (more will be added in the future):

  • Israel
  • USA West Cost.
  • USA East Cost.
  • Egypt Sinai
  • Hawaii

App Features

  • Optimized for battery use: most operations are done on the server side, and the notifications are pushed to the wearable (its does not have to poll). So its very efficient (out tests shows 1% or less battery usage a day).
  • Uses a very accurate weather model and stations all over the world (DarkSky).
  • The server will push notifications only when they are needed (e.g not at night).
  • You can control the wind limit in which you will get notifications.

Supported devices
  • WearOS 2.0 and above.

  • Galaxy Watch 4, and 5:   
    • You need to allow notifications on the Samsung watch settings app:
    • Note that in some cases (app re-install) the setting was removed and WindZap did not sent notifications because of that, so if you don't get notifications, first check this.



    • You need to allow background operation to the app:
