Wind strength is not the only indication for kitesurfing. KiteSpotter takes into account strength, direction, temperature and precipitation to give you the best advise on which kite spot has the best conditions.

On our new version we have also added tidal height and wave information (height, period and direction). So now we take into account all natures the elements.

- Find KiteSurf locations around the world, get current conditions, know when the weather is right and enjoy the sport you love most.
- Weekly Weather Forecast Report with the places that have good conditions under each day of the week.
- Forecast on Map, indicating which places have perfect KiteSurf conditions.

We love kitesurfing and everyday we are looking for places to kite. So far we have been using weather forecast applications that provided us with just weather forecast. Everyday we check a number of different spots for ridable conditions, visiting multiple pages and going back and forth between them. When we visit a new place we have to solve a puzzle, where are the good spots, what wind directions work, etc.

To solve the above problems we created KiteSpotter. KiteSpotter takes into account wind speed, wind direction, temperature and precipitation and informs the user only when all weather conditions are met.

When it comes to kite surf and weather forecast our users have rated us as the best application on the App Store. To help you out get the most of your kitesurfing day we provide you with the following gear:

WEATHER
-------------

We use live stations that are close to a spot and give you current weather conditions.

For each day of the week we give you weather forecast outlook for all your favourite spots in one list. You can sort the list by conditions / distance or alphabetical. Spots with good conditions for the day are clearly marked.

Select a spot from the list to see detailed live weather and forecast.


WEEKLY PLANNER
-----------------------

Monitors you favourites spots and for each day of the week we show you only the spots that have rideable conditions and the best time to kite. No more checking around multiple pages to find the best conditions and missing out sessions.


CHECK AROUND (MAP)
-----------------------------

Scroll around on the map and get spots with perfect conditions at a glance. You select the day, then as you scroll on the map, spots with good weather condition are coloured.


PROFILE
-----------

Customise the conditions that meet your style. You can change the wind range, temp range, your weight, etc. KiteSpotter will then guide you based on your preferences.


Download our application, find the best weather conditions, pick up your board and kite and go out there.

TIDE INFORMATION
-------------------

On tidal spots, we also include the height of the tide together with the forecast. This way you get all the information you need from one application.

WAVE INFORMATION
--------------------

On wave spots, we include the height, period and direction of the wave.

Pros and cons of KiteSpotter -Kitesurf Forecast app for iPhone and iPad

KiteSpotter -Kitesurf Forecast app good for

Ive tried just about every single kite surfing app in the app store, but have always been disappointed. Except with this app. It is the only app I found that does everything I could hope for, and does it in a visually pleasing manner. Plus, it is regularly updated-something most apps of this sort dont do
Clearly enjoys by this app that give me good information for me
App is great! I just loved it, before you got update! It doesnt work!!!! iOS 6.1

Some bad moments

It looked like to have a plus, due to the riders weight/kite setting, but unless you upgrade, you cant see where to kite at a glance like others apps do.
You cannot manage the spot list because the app visualize a default spot list togheter your favorite spot (If you found IT) The majors Kite spot arent in the list application and you must choose the approxmate Kite spot Not buy this app Bye, Giorgio (rome)
Great simple app but need to fix the number inputs. When you press 2 the 1 appears and when you press 3 the 2 appears. Otherwise a great app!
This is a good app for checking out the wind. I seem to spend a lot of time chasing the wind and this is a great tool
Waste of money! It just keeps shutting down then asking to allow for current location. Select ok and nothing happens. :-(
Buy the update and then add any place you want to kite to see if its right - all for a one time price!
