      When I first used this app I could feel the lightning strikes. I have vibration turned on. How do I get the lightning to vibrate in the app?

        @utschy Hello, lightning strikes should work also in the app. You just need to turn the option "vibrate" on.

                @utschy Hello, and do the lightning strikes work in the mobile browser?

                  @utschy It is possible that OS Android do not respect our API requests. In fact this feedback should be just when you do some action.

                    @ivo hi. I am not sure about what action I should do? The haptic vibration used to happen in the app. It does not vibrate on google chrome on my Android phone. One thing that is strange is if I restart my phone and put it into weather radar setting, I will sometimes get a vibrate on the first lightning strike but then it turns off all vibrations?

                      No, no vibration on google chrome on my Android phone.

                          @korina Not sure if this will be read or not but....well over a year later and still no lightning strikes being felt. Samsung Note20 5G It's one of the features that drew me to this app. I've checked all the settings. Everything is right.

                                    Hey folks,

                                    Windy newb here. Just got the annual subscription today. Haptic feedback for lightning strikes? That is remarkable, this weather app is on a whole 'nother level.

                                    Going forward I will be using Windy as my primary weather app, nothing else comes close to the powerful capabilities of Windy. With the exception of Carrot (I am fiend for black comedy and really most nihilistic entertainment) I have uninstalled all other weather apps on my devices.

                                    Many thanks!

                                    Regards,

                                        @utschy sorry no, had not tried it when I responded to the thread. Seems it's not currently working.
