Windy.app

There are two "Windy" apps, one is a red icon labeled "Windy" and then there is "Windy.app". Which one are pilots using? I'm using Windy.app as it seems more in line with what we need. Still trying to figure out how to use it beyond what info I get from ForeFlight.

Thanks for the point out @craig.roser - the web site version is nice to use. I clicked on KRIC on the map and it gave nice info. And the best part are the labels left of the row to help understand the complex info presented.

I paid for the premium service for the red Windy app. I'm not sure if the two apps are related. I noticed the red Windy app also has an app for my Apple Watch which is nice. They both seem to present the same info.
