      I am finding it difficult to tell what are roads on the maps until you zoom in quite a bit. It would be helpful to be able to bold them or something to make them more visible on the map when at or near the default zoom level. Especially when trying to figure out a way around all the PM2.5 (smoke) as we travel to Alaska this summer. A setting to turn it on or off,, and probably defaulting to off to keep the web map looking the same for everyone and allowing those who need it to turn it on. Maybe make it a premium feature. Thanks, Bill

        Hi @bigbillsd, thank you for your feedback. However, there are no plans to implement this change of map now.

          @Ondřej-Šutera It'd be best to just use OsmAnd maps integration and possibly also bing satellite maps or other open source maps as add-on layers. No need to reinvent/reimplement the wheel. Also these maps provide significantly more useful details than just roads! :D

            Windy is already using OSM as base map. No need to reinvent the wheel :)

              @idefix37 There is no option to view the osmand layer just like in OsmAnd app nor openstreetmap.org, is there?

                The base map in Windy at high zoom level and even at lower one is from OSM.

                  @Angielskiego It would be nice to have setting to always have it on as an underlay of the main currently selected layer such as temperature, wind , etc.

                  Is satellite view out of possibilty for now?
