  Very informative!!! Even understandable for me as an absolute newbie to this topic.

  Every time I open the app, I'm prompted to turn on "Location Accuracy", which uses some Google something to "improve" the location service.

  I have already enabled Precise GPS access for Windy, which localizes my position within a few meters. There's no need to involve Google in this, and even less of a need to ask me again every single time I open the app. It doesn't seem like much, but this is the most annoying thing about this app for me.

  Goal: Show animation of planned route along with selected forecast layer
  Purpose: Crew briefing and departure planning meetings
  Need: Access to the route data along with forecast data "ready" indicator

  I could not find related questions. Forgive me if I've missed some prior discussion.

  I would like to animate the position indicator over the route based upon the given speed and the Haversian distance travelled in a given timeframe (perhaps 1 hour).

  In order to do this I would need access via the API to the route data and some indication that the selected forecast layer data has been loaded/displayed/isReady/etc. in order to sync the movement of the position indicator and the display of the forecast at that time.

  May I please request API access to these facilities?

  If not, may I turn this concept into a feature request?

  Thank you for your consideration,

  Randy Casburn
