      @Ondřej-Šutera has something changed id like the old windy can display both weather picker and detail forecast at the same time it was very helpful and can the weather picker be 1 hour update?

        @Bacolod-Drrmo Yes, we released a new version of our browser version that changed this probably. I will discuss it with colleagues.

            @Ondřej-Šutera Thank you so much. The flag/picker was a great feature which gave me lots of info at a glance. BTW we have found Windy's forecasts are more accurate than the official New Zealand weather sources!

              @Bacolod-Drrmo @Chris-Chapel can you please try the behavior now? We decided to get this back to the last version, since there are many requests on that here on community.

                  @Ondřej-Šutera Still no flag/picker visible while there is a location in the text box upper LH of screen. (Using free version on desktop PC in NZ)

                      @Chris-Chapel @damienhays @bbrust I compared the previous version with the new one and discussed it with colleagues and it is completely same now. If you want to move the picker to get the detailed forecast. You need to do a right click on the map and click on "Show weather picker" to get the picker with the forecast. Here is the screenshot from the latest version:

                        @Ondřej-Šutera Thank you for the effort but it is not the same for me. Yes the picker/flag appears when I right click and select it but the flag does not follow the map as I change locations - I usually compare 2 or 3 sites for wind and waves. Note in the image, the flag is well away from the white dot. So, almost useable, but not the same as before. windee1.JPG

                          Hi, I’m using the app on my iPad and I do not get the flicker either, regardless whether I have the forecast detail at the bottom or not. Some of the answers posted here say to “right click” which of course you cannot do on a mobile device….has this flicker been restored yet for the iPad and mobile phone version as it is crazy to remove that functionality, surely.

                            What do you mean with “flicker”? It is the weather picker with a small flag shape?
                            Yes, it has been removed from the app for iPad and phone. It’s really a pity ! Now when you press the screen at a precise location you get a crosshairs and you need to move the map under it and read the value in top left corner of screen !

                              @idefix37 I also deeply miss the flag on iPad and Android phone. I really dislike the crosshair, which does not hold station when the map is moved or resized. I really would like the flag returned as an option.

                                Me too ! But to my knowledge, there are no plans to reintroduce the old picker with the flag.

                                  Has the crosshairs picker been replaced yet? The little flag picker was the best. Especially when your are at sea in your boat with only an iPhone. The crosshairs is much more combersome
