      @Korina you could do whatever you want to attract new subscriptions, for example add new colour schemes to infrared satellite imagery, add RGB satellite layers in which red green and blue Ara different bands, but you just simply decided to distract people who would be subscribing by making your product worse.

        I have a suggestion that might solve the problem
        have like 3 plans
        a free plan with no ads but limited features like it is now
        a free plan with ads and unlocked features
        a paid premium plan without ads and exclusive layers/ features
        the free user has the freedom of either enabling ads to get full layers and if the user doesn't want ads he will disable it and get partial features
        not all windy fans out there can afford the subscription myself included

          @Tali not all people who use the app live in a European country, in other currencies the premium subscription often becomes inaccessible (where I live in Latin America for example) . The best way to profit from this app would be a free version but with ads, and a premium version without ads for those who can pay. I love this app, and I understand how complex and best-in-class it is, but making it inaccessible to most people is not a good decision.

            Just wanted to say thanks for the great program, while it lasted. I will never understand why you felt the need to destroy such a great resource , for those who could not afford to pay cash, but did pay with our praises and recommendations to friends and family. (The best advertisement there is!). Again thanks and goodbye.

              @Bohdan-f We did not make the product worse, we actually added new features such as the Satellite archive, better weather map resolutions or extended Compare forecast.

                    Sure, no-one likes price increases / service reductions, just a shame that more people don't wish to support the awesome work that the Windy team does.

                      that is not an honest response.
                      you remove functionality as 6 and 12 hours radar history from free accounts to put them in a pay mode

                        Why would I start paying for service when the bones of the new “format” are useless?
