      Hello,

      when I click on "Radar and Satellite" in the menu and then on "Weather Radar" the website will ask me for my Geolocation and the little "...wants to know your location" browser window pops up. This also happens when you use the embed option for embedding Windy in an iframe on your own website. This only happens for the Weather Radar view though and not for any of the others. Is there any way to disable this behaviour through some URL parameter so as to NOT invoke the Javascript Geolocation API and thus not trigger the browser window to pop up?

      Thank you very much

        Hello @datajoint49 you can't disable it on desktop. However, you can set it in general for all websites to stop asking for the location. Here is how to do it for every browser – https://bit.ly/2XSLL3T
