      I started using Windy when it first came out. It is a weather forecasting app. foremost but with so much more! Unfortunately, the simple forecasting is at least for me, totally unreliable. Clearly, I can go to the radar maps, for example, and do my own interpretation but I'm now having to do that every day. The Basic forecast is next to useless. A brilliant app. let down by the number crunchers.

        I think your remarks above would require a bit more details about why "The Basic forecast is next to useless".
        For sure, remarks of type "It doesn't work" are 100% useless for bug fixing and/or implementing enhancements or new features.

        ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

          You are right; I have become very 'black and white' in my old age! :-)

          I enjoy cycling and walking, but not particulalry in the rain any more.

          Windy was extremely accurat with it's basic weather forecast; so much so that I could virtually rely on it for the purpose of my excercize.

          Now it seems to have lost that accuracy.

          It's not the end of the owrld and so I have to now look closeley at the radar and satellite views ... play the 12 hour, 6 hour and 1 hour animations and then do my own forecasting.

          It is very often quite different form the Windy basic forecast.

          Apologies for the mundane earlier comment. Should have been better from someone who spent nearly 35 years in IT, including working with APKs.

            Hi @monkeystuff, we don't create the forecast, we 'only' visualize data provided by different meteorological centers.
            There are more forecasting models available. I would recommend checking the function 'Compare' to see which one is most accurate for your location if you haven't already :)
