Windtrack doesn't just show you the weather forecast — it analyses how the forecast for a future date changes over time. Other apps give you the latest forecast. You look weeks ahead, see "Saturday, 25 knots, let's cancel" — and Saturday turns out flat calm. Windtrack queries five global models four times a day for the point and hour you chose, and never deletes a single record. When the spread between models narrows, that is a far stronger sign of confidence than wind speed alone. WHAT YOU GET - Five global models side by side: ECMWF, ICON, GFS, MeteoFrance and UKMO - four updates a day - Drift chart: see at a glance how the forecast has moved over the days - Model agreement: as the spread narrows, confidence grows — a data-backed answer to "do we go or not" - Skipper commentary: everything collected is turned into a sailor's read by AI; you get a notification on your phone when it'…
Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be.

The accent colour we picked up, #64ACC4, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look. Hit Use this style to open the editor with these exact colours and drop your own screenshot in.
Notice the first screenshot in particular. It's the one users see in search results and on the product page, and it's where most apps spend their best caption and tightest design. Look at the proportion of background to phone, where the text sits, what one thing the image is trying to communicate.
