What to do if you can't access your Windy Premium features
-
Dear users,
in case you are having issues activating your Windy Premium subscription, please follow the steps below.
Note that purchase needs to be restored on the platform, where is it was purchased, e.g. you will not be able to restore Premium on mobile phone (in-app), if it was purchased on desktop (via FastSpring), but you will have to restore on desktop as well.
Furthermore, purchasing Windy Premium will give you access to Premium features on all platforms (desktop, Android and iOS), you do not need to purchase separately for each platform.
And as a last thing, you need to have Windy account in order to use Windy Premium. If you do not have one, please register here.
If you purchased on App Store or Google Store
1. Make sure you have the newest version of Windy, go to App/Google store and check there is no update, if yes, update it
2. Open Windy on a device, where you made the purchase, and log in with your Windy account, if you have not done so already
3. Initiate a window with subscription offer -> go to menu -> Windy Premium or click on the 1h forecast button in the detail of a certain location
4. Under the Annual subscription and One-time purchase options, you will find a button called 'Restore purchases'
5. Click the button
After clicking the button 'Restore purchases', you Windy Premium should be assigned to your account in case you have already bought it, but for some reason, it was not assigned.
If even this results in error, check you have a stable internet connection and try again. In case, you are still having troubles, contact us at support@windy.com and we will fix it. Please prepare your username.
If you subscribed via Desktop
1. Go to desktop and log in with your Windy account
2. Open the subscription offer window (e.g. click on the 1h forecast button in the detail of a certain location)
3. Click on 'Restore purchases'
3. On the next page, insert the subscription Order Reference/Transaction code, you will find in your invoice from Fastspring or Paddle
If you purchased on a Huawei phone without Google Play
1. Follow the instructions for the desktop
In case this option fails, please let us know your username and email, you made the purchase with at support@windy.com.
How to know your Windy Premium is active?
Active Premium can be recognized by a Premium batch under the Windy logo.
