      You confirm it is a visible satellite view but color enhanced, correct ?
      I was a bit confused because the difference between day and night map is not that much so initially I though it was INFRA with a color treatment
      This is key to know because visible images, color enhanced or not, gives info about the thickness of the clouds while INFRA gives us info about the height of the clouds

        Nice enhancement! It looks like a smart combination of Infra and Visible. This is like the 'classical view' some other websites offer, but much much better! Using the smooth animation it's even more impressive.

            Všimnul jsem si toho před pár dny, a je to paráda, hlavně jak to krásně odděluje pevninu. Ještě by se mi líbil nějaký hybrid s IR ;-)

            Congrats!

                  Love the new 'Blue" satellite layer Windy team, it does help the eyes!
                  Would it be possible in the future to add another layer called "True" colour (if licensing allow this).
                  The himawari 8 satellite has a great True Colour view that is beautiful.

                    Thank you, @anthony10, for your feedback and suggestion.

                    We are going to implement the 3D feature but right now we can't promise all layers, including satellite, will be included.

                              Looks great. Thank you.

                              I like the new details of how the cloud cover is presented. It seems that the nighttime side is brighter, too, than the older visible nighttime side.

                                        @Korina czy możemy w aplikacji dodać sama satelitę w paśmie INFRA tak jak jest w Wigeth? Jest teraz widzialny , niebieski blue oraz infra plus a czy sama infra można ? Bez kolorów ?

                                          These layers are available in the phone app too. You just need to click the 3 dots at right side of the time line.

                                            Further to the previous post, I would like to point out the poor picture quality of the Satellite widget compared to the same picture of the Satellite layer.

                                            D20ABEB1-1578-4B6E-8886-2009475B9876.jpeg

                                            With such a quality the widget is not really useful.
                                            Here shown from BLUE widget and layer on iPad.
