      As a sailor, I love to use windy, and therefore I am a premium subscriber. However, I often find it hard to decipher the tiny text or numbers on my iPhone Xs. It’s especially hard when there is black figure on red background (like 8 Bft of wind). And more so outdoors - where I find myself using Windy mostly.

      Therefore I suggest to incorporate bigger and more legible fonts. The app would be so much more usable.

          A workaround is to use my color scale which is calibrated in Beaufort. So at a glance you know directly the predicted wind speed.
          See:

          You make the change on desktop and then the new color scale is applied on your iPhone.

            @idefix37 Thank you for this suggestion. I’ll check it out.

            However, I do think that there would be the opportunity for slightly more legible fonts, which would make the whole Windy experience visually more appealing and more easy on then eyes.
