Have you thought about getting Ventusky approved/signed for use on marine chart plotters from Raymarine (owned by Garmin)?

Their Axiom chart plotters are Android based and there are already Windy and Predict Wind apps available in the Raymarine "app store".

As a Premium user this would be fantastic and probably a good thing for Ventusky also!

Yes that's where they list the compatible apps.

I don't think subs are purchased through their store, it's purely a place to download the apps onto an SD card for installation - subs have to be purchased either through the applicable mobile app or through the vendors web site.

For instance, I can install the Predict Wind app on my Axiom chart plotter but when it's opened I'm prompted for my username/email and password in order to work.

So I would assume that you would make Ventusky available to Premium subscribers only (?) as that also would give valuable data such as sea/tides/currents which would be great 👍

In their chart plotter user manual it gives the following information regarding the apps which you're probably interested in:
"Axiom-Series and Axiom 2-Series displays are based on different versions of the Android operating system, and this affects the compatibility of specific Android apk apps with each LightHouse 4 display variant.

Axiom-Series displays are based on an Android 6.0 (API 23) ARM7a (32-bit) system.

Axiom 2-Series displays are based on an Android 11.0 (API 30) ARM64 (64-bit) system."

Hope this helps.
