User Reviews for Vaavud Wind Meter

Junk

Got this at Christmas in a Pollyanna. The app is a horrible, constantly crashing. Really this is just a silly invention. Dollar store junk.

Waste of time/$$

Never got this turkey to take more than one reading without having to reload app. Now useless. One star I can't leave zero.

Where is my previous negative review?

Does App Store suppress negative reviews?I want Vaavud to refund the $50 I spent on their appliance since I can no longer use it to find wind speed. I don't have time to jack around with logging into an app when I need to know the wind speed, just so Vaavud can do social networking games. When I need to know wind speed, I'm sailing offshore out of range of the Internet - not the time to be told "you have to sign in so we can provide advanced features". I could care less about "advanced features"! I need to know the speed of the wind. I don't need access to the Internet to find that out. The Vaavud appliance is useless without the app and, at this point, without access to the Internet. What naive product manager approved that brilliant concept? I want my money back...

Works Well but Very Basic

I just purchased a Vaavud wind meter for use with my iPhone 5 to check wind speed when kite flying on the beach. It works exceedingly well… simple, high quality, and durable. Be sure and check it out if you're into any activity where knowing the wind speed would be helpful or interesting.This app works perfectly, but is very basic with only the ability to display current and mean windspeed over a brief period of time. There's no ability to save, share, or export wind speed recording sessions.It's a good start but could be so much better with a little more time and effort. Personally I wouldn't mind paying for a "pro" version offering the features I already mentioned and more.

Vaavud can go forth and multiply

I bought this to use when and where I want to get a reasonably accurate measure of local wind speed. It use to work! Plug the overpriced piece of plastic in to your iphone or ipad and open the app. Simple, effective but NOT NOW. Vaavud you “children out of wedlock" what sort of update is this? Tried using it for the first time this season. I NEEDED it to measure some serious wind on the Chesapeak this evening but the app wants an internet connection and you to login to the app to share the data over a social network. YES YOU HAVE TO LOGIN TO THE APP TO “expletive-ing" USE IT….well “expletive…begins with “f” sounds like duck" you Vaavud….you pile of excrement. This use to work….FIX IT….you “fill in your own term of abuse"

New style SLEIPNIR Temporary fix

Ok this is new review since 1st one I gave was 2 stars. Yes now that the app works so far it's the product I figured it could be GREAT. EVEN tho the volume kinks should have been worked out before releasing product. Vaavud did take my advice and put why it wasn't working on their web page. Thank u for that. This way you don't have people like me freeking out cause I think mine is broken. Now it works since new update and it's a fine piece of equipment. And vaavud did get back to me everytime. Thanks customer service. Now I'm Happy and will buy many many more!!

Great Wind Meter!

I’ve been using this app and wind meter for the last few months and I have say that I love it! I’m learning how to kiteboard and it’s important to know what the wind speed is so I can pick the right sized kite for the conditions. The app is super easy to use and most of all-is very accurate. The map feature is very useful as I can see the conditions in other places right on my phone, so I can find the best place to kite before I leave home. I also love that it works with my existing iPhone so I don’t have to carry a while separate wind meter with me. All in all, the app and product are great!

App crashes, product is unusable

Big disappointment, the app crashes constantly and the product is unusable. Waste of money and time, not worth 99 cents let alone 99 dollars. Developers, pull this product from the market until you fix it.
