Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get a Holfuy API key?

Visit holfuy.com and create a free account. Your API key allows access to up to 3 weather stations. Enter the key in WindNow Settings to enable Holfuy stations.

Why do I need to enable location?

Location is used to sort weather stations by distance and to enable wind alerts when you're near your favorite flying sites. Your location data stays on your device.

How do wind alerts work?

Set up alerts on any weather station card. When wind conditions meet your criteria (speed and direction thresholds), you'll receive a notification. Requires "Always" location permission for background alerts.

What weather sources are available?

WindNow supports Bureau of Meteorology (Australia), Holfuy weather stations (worldwide), and Open-Meteo forecasts for winds aloft data.
