      Hi everyone, an Apple user here. There are 2 Windy apps on App Store, one is named "Windy.com" and the other is "Windy: wind & weather forecast" (by Windy Weather World Inc). I bet most people feel the same confusion when they want to download your app.

      Are they related? Both apps have such high ratings and are downloaded by many. Could you enlighten us in this regard?

      I saw that there is a similar and old thread that you warned people about some Russian app, but I couldn't be sure since this other app I'm talking about has many likes and downloads too.. It made me think they are related somehow...

      Thanks

        @tastytest Hello, we have no relation with the app called "Windy: wind & weather forecast". Windy.com official iOS app is this - https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id1161387262

            @korina Then this is really tricky (I know well it is not Windy.com's fault); searching for following strings on Gogol Search:

            • "Windy: wind & weather forecast" (w. quotes): returns the ennemy as 1st match
            • Windy: wind & weather forecast (w/o quotes): returns Windy.com as 1st match

            ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

                If you're looking for the well-established Windy app known for its wind maps and weather features, download "Windy.com" by Windy s.r.o.

                I understand the concern about the similar names, especially with the other app having downloads too. It's always best to check the developer name to ensure you're getting the intended app.
