Wind Field

This is a "must have app"! It is on my main display and is so valuable for balancing your effort in windy conditions (which is all the time where I live). Well implemented app, and I highly recommend it. Absolutely worth it!

I'm not sure if I love this or hate this! The data field works perfectly (as long as I can keep my Connect app to stay connected, but that's a Garmin thing) and has earned a spot on my main page. I'm just not sure if I really want to know I'm pushing into a 25 mph headwind...

This is "the app" if you enjoy going after Strava KOMs/PRs. It's a mainstay on my Edge 820's main screen

After installing, setting up, and doing a short test ride, I really like Wind Field. Installation instructions are very limited, so this may help: Install from Garmin Express on your computer (or the Garmin Connect app on your phone) and set Wind App as a single data field on a data screen on the Garmin so the registration code will have room to display. Start an activity outside as it seems to need GPS data to add data to the wind field. Within about 5 minutes, the wind field will show two different messages ("special" and "register'), then the registration code in the form of "abcde-fghij", all lower case letters. Copy the code and go to www.windfield.app, enter the code, and pay $5 for 1-year access. After you register the code and pay for it, start another activity outside. It will take 3-5 minutes for the Wind Field data field to sync and display the current data without the notices. Note: You can choose two secondary fields along with the wind speed. To set or change them, connect to Garmin Express, choose IQ Apps, and the Wind Field Settings page. You can choose among Wind Factor, Temperature, Humidity, UV Index, Ozone, Feels Like Temp, or Gusts. You can also choose to get weather alerts on the Wind Field settings page.

Great app.Since I bought it, I cannot imagine ride without it. Hardly recommended.

Fantastic app. Didn't realise how much I used it until there was a glitch yesterday - instead of wind speed and direction, I had a "G" . I got in touch with Scott and within 24 hours he had responded and solved the problem. While I was fiddling around in the IQ store I noticed that Scott is offering his Forecastr App to subscribers to Wind Field. I've downloaded that and added to one of my Edge 520 screens. I hope there are a few showers when next I get out - I'm sick of watering.

Nice to see the wind direction and temperature while cycling

I have been using this for about a year now. I use it every ride and think it is awesome. Highly recommended.

Muy útil, suele acertar y muy cuidada y mejorada continuamente por el desarrollador

A very useful app - I use all the time. The only limitation is my Edge 520 - so I cant take advantage of the new features :( Scott has already teased me toward an upgrade

If you only get one widget this is a must-have. Wind speed and direction is so important when training or if you are just out cycling. Now Scott has added more fields like temperature. If you need any help he is very responsive and will address any issue.

Really useful, would it be possible to get temperature in Celsius? Thanks

I love this field. it does something no other field does, gives wind direction. its excellent. Only problem is that you need to carry your phone

Very useful! Thank you

This is the most useful app on Connect IQ. Never fails and I find myself looking for the tailwind routes. Developer support is first rate.

One of the most if not THE most useful app for Garmin cyclists...and the service is even better...Wow and thanks!

Are you doing the update for the 520 too? Thanks

An indispensable indicator that reliably tells me when to hide from the wind behind another rider or when to go for it on a segment. The developer is very responsive, too.

Literally the only IQ app I couldn't live without. Works perfectly (make sure the Garmin is connected to your phone) and Scott couldn't be more helpful. Excellent.

This is one of the best apps available. I like the fact that it shows temperature and humidity as well which is a function that the Garmin Explore lacks. Scott's fast replies are much appreciated!

Same here - can not access settings on my iphone / android phone. I am using edge 520. There is just uninstallation option

Great data field. At my location the wind often gets stronger and stronger, so it's good to know what slows me down. But one question, at your announcement to 4.0.1 you wrote 'Settings now allow you to optionally display...' Sorry, I cannot find a settings dialog to change these kind of parameters, am I wrong? But again, great app (calling it a data field would be a way of understatement)!

Mr. Scott Beam has an app that i would not want to be without. I can better plan my training rides by knowing where to use my energy more effectively. He has been very useful in helping me sort out problems that Garmin should be able to resolve but does not.

I like this data field so much I purchased it twice! Once for my Edge 820 and again for my Fenix 5x+. Perfect for cycling, but I actually like to use it on my Fenix in the car while driving as well.
