      When 1-hour resolution is selected, the UI says 3-hour. The reverse is also true. The other options correctly show the current setting (Display as: Basic; Fcst model: HRRR)

        It is not a glitch, only a button to switch to the other time stamp.
        Here is a idea to get it a bit clearer:

          No, it's wrong.

          When it says "forecast: 3 hours" it's showing the 1-hour forecast. And when it says "forecast: 1 hour" it's showing the 3-hour forecast. See screenshot.

          Everything else on the bottom is showing what is currently displayed, eg. Display as: Basic and Fcst model: HRRR.

          This is the same issue as the URL you provided and I agree with that poster that it's a bug: the other items at the bottom are showing the current setting not some other option.

            @davemyron HI, the button in this case means the second offered option. It is on purpose this way.

              Why is this button in the mobile application different from the one in the web version?

                @idefix37 Actually good question, however, there are more differences between our mobile UI and desktop UI.

                  The button in the web version seems more explicit to me than in the mobile app.
                  In this app, some users do not understand why when the meteogram shows 1h time steps we see a watch face indicating 3 hours. This just means when pressing this button he switches to 3h time steps.
                  But a “switch” symbol would be more explicit than a “watch face” symbol.
