      So, while I am in (start in) ECMWF model, then go to the radar view I get a popup:

      357302df-3e9a-4512-a487-02e324fd7eb9-image.png
      This is annoying, can still measure distance - so workable.

      (I measure the rate of advance of storms to see when the rain will start and end).

        @alanthebeast Hello, the Route planner works for ECMWF only, since when you create a route, it shows forecast along it. This is not a bug.

          At least you can do it in the mobile app (on phone or tablet devices) as the Route planner is not available in this app, only distances:

            When I right click, I get "distance and planning" - doesn't mean I'm planning: I'm measuring. (And the map is indeed in the ECMWF model).

            So, please consider refining this, and/or having a separate measurement widget that is independent of planning routes.

            For bonus points, it would be nice to have:

            • Raw radar - no interpolation.

            • Tracking to estimate the time of arrival of precipitation at a point on the map.

            Thanks!

              @alanthebeast Hello, thank you, we will consider it.
              As for your second point, Route planner already allows you to plan the start and end of your route with forecast.

                I'm not planning a route. Simply making a measurement of distance. Nothing more.

                  @alanthebeast As I mentioned, route planner does not work on the Satellite layer.
