I've pretty much tried everything available for wind data on my Garmin devices and this one is simply the best. If you haven't tried it, give it a shot. The PRO version is the bees knees! Thanks Scott!

Using Winfield for many years now and love it. Developer Scott has always responded to any queries promptly and helpfully. Wouldn't ride without it.

WindField is an excellent source for wind while riding. I have used it for a number of years, but this is my first review. Scott, replies quickly when I have had a question. I really appreciate that!!!

Can't say enough how awesome this datafield is. Love the font update on the 1040, now it's fully integrated into the look and feel of the 1040 with the updated and more clear fonts.

WindField is great. I've been using it for years and I'm very excited. Scott responds very quickly to feedback and fixes bugs quickly. Thank You.

I originally purchased the standard, but decided I wanted more weather options and purchased the pro. This was a super easy transaction. I had some problems with getting it up and ready. Contacted the seller several times. He was always quick with his responses—and helpful. Turns out the best thing you can do to get things working well is take your device outside. It works immediately then. I have had no problems and all the options are great to have. He has a 3 hour weather option on there, but it takes up too much real estate on my screen 1, so I also got the sellers forecastr widget to put on my screen 2. It also works great but at this time does not have the option to enlarge the font showing the temps. If the seller makes an update for that, I will leave a review on that widget as well.

Great app for general riding. Takes the burden of worrying about the wind out of riding completely and allows me to focus on the ride at hand.

I have used this App for many years and continue to be more than satisfied with it. This is the best Wind tracking app in the store by far. Whenever I have a problem which is rare, Scott the developer is always there with minutes to fix it. He works really hard to support his App and is great to work with. I strongly recommend you sign up for the Pro option as it has great features and works very well.

Initially I thought, oh wel let's give it a try. But this is without doubt one of the best additions to your Garmin. Datafield is well designed, tons of features and lovely extra data details. During you ride it gives you the real time wind data against your position. Nothing but 5 stars, quality app!

Christoph Lofi

For years, this has been one of my essential apps! Living in the flat and windy Netherlands, using this puts my mind at peace when battling the "the invisible Dutch mountains" head on :-)

Awsome for cycling. It added the wind impact to your activity where it kept forever.

Best app for the Garmin. Very useful, accurate data. Great job Scott. Worth the expense.

Great App and really useful addtion. One query, I know space is limited, but would a descriptor (even abbreviation) against chosen fields be possible? Would saves having to remember what all the numbers and %'s on both sides refer to.

Fantastic app, especially in windy areas, my first day with it had 40 kph headwinds and I used the data to pick/choose my way home as easily as I could. Great support and communication with the dev as well. Fully intend to re-up my subscription to Pro come renewal time.

Toni Tijeras

One of my favorite APPS since it was launched. I have had my love/hate with the app, because sometimes it is not able to connect (possibly Garmin connect problems, internet, etc...), but when it works it does it very accurately. A fact that for me has become essential. What is not questionable is the developer support. That's why it must be the highest rated plugin in the store

I ride in pretty rural areas and I can tell you the farmers and their weather stations are showing the same data this datafield is giving me. I compared it to data they showed me from the tops of their silos and grain legs, and Windfield is right in-line with what they’re seeing. I’ve been a diehard fan of this datafield for a while now and it keeps getting better and more accurate. It’s the one app I count on more than any other. Developer is responsive to boot, I had a question about some of the settings and got a reply in minutes with a clear answer. Constantly adding new devices to the compatibility list too. Awesome datafield, definitely worth every penny!
