Windy apps for AppleTV and AndroidTV
-
Hi, I'm a big fan of Windy.com on all of my portable devices.
It would be very nice to see the app come to AppleTV and AndroidTV devices. This would be a great way to display Windy in control rooms, op centers, or anyplace that you need a quick glance at the weather picture.
thanks!!

@bdybdy Thank you for suggestion.

I would like to add that for AppleTV there are no real good weather apps for displaying up on the TV. The Windy app would be way better than the current Weather Pro app and light years better than Weather.com and still an improvement on Accuweather.
I know not everyone would be in agreement on the next statement...but I'd even be ok with requiring a subscription to utilize it (as I realize it constantly being up on the screen would increase your costs) which I do have and/or a nominal charge like 1-3$ USD for the ability to have the app.
Right now I am having to open it up on my Phone or Ipad and Screenshare to my appletv for others to see and discuss our plans. -
@crsouser Hi, thank you for feedback. We may consider it if there is demand from users.

@korina Hi, thanks for the update. Does this qualify as demand? :)
-
@crsouser I too would welcome a further subscription level for the ability to support AppleTV.
-
@bdybdy Hi, there is currently no plan for this, but it may change in the future.
-
@korina I would be willing too pay for an Windy app on Apple TV.
-
Still hoping Windy can build this. Developing for tvOS has a lot of commonality with iPadOS and iOS so it's not a complete lift from scratch. I'd happily purchase the App if it were available.
-
I would also like a Windy Apple TV app! I currently use Windy on all my devices, but use Accuweather on Apple TV.
-
AppleTV needs the windy app!
As of now there is not a real alternative, so I think you would get a lot of happy customers if you make it.

Are there any news regarding Windy on Apple TV?
-
@NorthflashSDS No, there are no plans about this implementation.

Hi,first of all, a huge thank you for this fantastic app – it has become absolutely indispensable for me (and many others).
I have a heartfelt request: please consider bringing Windy to Apple TV. That’s where your app could truly shine:
• Big screen experience: Weather maps, wind flows, and forecasts look stunning on a large display and are much easier to share with family, friends, or teams.
• New use cases: Teachers could use Windy in classrooms, hotels or sailing clubs could run it as a live weather station for guests, outdoor enthusiasts could plan their trips right in the living room.
• Benefits for Windy itself: You’d open up a new platform, attract new audiences, and showcase the impressive visualization power of Windy with an even greater wow effect.Windy thrives on visualization – and there’s no better place to experience that than on a big screen.
Thanks again for all your great work!
