Vaavud Wind Meter Compatibility Fix

I really like the Vaavud Wind Meter and have used it for over a year. I use it with my Kyocera Torque and Galaxy 4 phones. Recently the wind meter stopped working after an update of the Vaavud app. Vaavud added wind direction to the app and made many phones incompatible(including mine). The fix for this is to go on the web and replace the new 0.3.3 Vaavud app with the old 0.2.5 Vaavud app. I sent this info. to the Vaavud company so they can help those users that found the new app took their wind meter down.

Sent to Vaavud:
When your app 0.2.5 was updated, the direction addition in 0.3.3 made my phone incompatible. I found that changing my Vaavud app back to ver. 0.2.5 made my phone work with your wind meter again. I'm sure there a lot of your customers out there that need to know that they need to run the older app if they want your device to work. Update your app to run the wind meter without the wind direction component and many more phones will be compatible.
