      Hello, I have just upgraded to premium, now getting hourly forecasts, however, the animation (when I click the play button at the bottom) is so so very slow! It would be great to be able to adjust the speed, since hourly data means more animation points, therefore it could definitely be played faster and still get a smooth animation.

      Right now it's about 1 frame per second (1 hour per second), and since the weather changes are quite gradual, 10 hours (frames) per second would be perfect or so.

      If such speeds cannot be done straight away, could do with first loading and caching the data (like for the satellite cloud view) and then playing the animation in real time after it's been cached.

      Thanks!

        May be this will be improved later, but in the mean time you can use this solution:

            @idefix37 What about the Speed? Is this on your feature list? Would really like this.

            Using keys at desktop is not useful at the smartphone.

            Regards Reiner

              @reinera At this moment, there is no plan for this. I am sorry about that.

                I find it also very important. It's very boring to observe upcoming tropical rain. Is it because of more pics/minute, when I'm Premium ?
                What about a longpress on the play- button to adjust ?

                Also the forecast of rain is only one hour anymore ( since I'm Premium ? ) Should also be adjustable :-)

                  If you are using the desktop version, you can get a better control the animation with the L and R arrow keys of your key board.

                      @Suty this is one of the most fundamental controls of radar animation. How is this not in the plans? It will definitely hinder the amount of paying customers you have. I feel like I got duped into buying the premium thinking it would have that feature.

                        @ozabud Hi, if you talk about the radar layer, we offer the possibility to adjust the speed of animation there.
