            Please could you show a screenshot.
            I understand that you talk about the hidden part of the Route planner table when the trip lasts a long time. In this case you just need to scroll the table to the left to see the right part of it, but only on desktop.
            In the mobile app, Route planner is not available. You get only the Planning & distance feature.

              Hi
              I have installed the windy app on my phone.
              I have registered.
              But not a paid user.

              Is it still possible to get that bottom section?
              And possible to do route planning ?
              Thx

                  As said above, the Route planner is only available on browser version, on desktop.
                  In mobile app (with a red logo) you have the Distance & planning feature only.
                  Long press on your screen to get a pop up window, then select Distance & planning.

                    Hello, how to use the module route planner on my android ?
                    Thanks for your support.

                    Bonjour,
                    Comment utiliser le module planning sur mon téléphone android pour faire une simulation de routage de bateau.
                    Je parviens à afficher les distance mais pas l'option planning.
                    Bonne journée, merci pour votre aide.

                      @voilier-oceane Hello, Route planner on mobile devices is only available in a limited form. If you want to use all the functions, you need to go to the desktop.

                          Hi everyone and Merry Xmas!

                          Is there a way to increase the visibility of the pressure /altitude levels and respective temperatures on the screens: I do struggle to discern them since they’re so faint.
                          The same with the freezing line throughout the timeline.
                          Thank you in advance!
                          Love the route planning ability by the way!

                                Route planner is only available with ECMWF model. No way to select an other one.

                                  Hi,
                                  Can we add stop over or can we only do it in several routes?

                                    There is no possibility to include stop over in a Route. You need to do several routes

                                      Is there any plan to implement a IFR route planner for paragliders, microlights, powered paragliders, gliders, powered parachutes etc.?

                                      The tool looks incredibly powerful but unfortunately the airgrams are not of any use as our altitude ranges in flatlands are relatively low and there's no granularity.

                                      It would be amazing to have something just like the IFR tool but topping out at about 6000 ft (or lower as an option) rather than 44,000 ft!

                                      At the moment, only the bottom two would be of any use to me and it isn't worth me subscribing to Premium for this feature.

                                        Why don’t you use the VFR for paragliding option instead of IFR ??

                                          @idefix37 sorry brain freeze. I meant VFR in all instances above. I can't edit the post. My points still apply.

                                            The VFR option is topping at 9000ft not 44000ft in the Route planner.
