      PS: I have a Premium account.

        You can enter the coordinates in the search bar in one of the 3 formats shown here:
        https://community.windy.com/topic/7290/inserting-coordinates/2?_=1666284098217
        Near the search bar, click the small heart to save this point as favorite. Then you can rename it.

            Could show here what are exactly the coordinates that you have entered in the search bar?

                I must admit it is a bit tricky. You must enter your coordinates in this format precisely as shown by the link I provided:
                36°59'21.2"N 84°13'53.3"W
                Which means for you
                38°52'43.0"N 8°50'48.0"W

                  @idefix37 Thanks a lot for your sugestions but it does not work.
                  1- Insert the coodinates exactly as you
                  sugested (DMS) but insted of the icon "heart" it shows the "share" one. No way of changing it.
                  2- With so many tries I ended up with a huge list of Favorits that I am unable to delete. Please indicate also how to delete unwanted Favorites.
                  Sorry for this but i am mad with Windy or perhaps it has a bug or somethig that does not allow me to get from it
                  usefull info.
                  I thank you in advance for your assistance in helping solve this problem.
                  Filipe.

                    @Filipe-Mayer said in Favorite set up:

                    Please indicate also how to delete unwanted Favorites.

                    This list is not Favorites but the locations you have searched.
                    Unfortunately there is no way to delete them, they are replaced by new ones.
                    I have still your coordinates in my own list…:)

                    Which is your device and which OS?

                      @Filipe-Mayer In addition to what @idefix37 already said, you can still save the place with coordinates as your favorites, which was I assume your goal.

                        @Korina Korina, please inform how can I save the place with coordinates as my favorite. I confirm that this was my goal since the beginning of my contact to you.

                        Also confirm that favorites can not be deleted.

                            It should work if you copy and paste in your search bar:
                            38°52'43.0"N 8°50'48.0"W

                            It works for me with MacOS Monterey 12.6
                            (and also with iPad as shown in previous post)
