Further to previous tests, it seems that Route planner is now working with the offline mode on iPad. I’ll test it in future sailing week ends.

As said in a previous post, the time line for wind should be shorten as I set the offline mode to be loaded for only 2 days. The timeline for waves is correct, not that of the wind.

Wind:

Waves:

I admit it is a small detail.

Work on a weather routing algorithm for sailing and let it use the ACCESS model and you'll blow PredictWind out of the water...

@ivo FF seems fine now. Why has WCT 'Ready for' 8h 48m (9h), here it´s max 6h.?

Today my internet is horrible, I mean best to test offline mode.

Is the altitude slider expected to be working now?
Only surface data seems to be available, like weeks ago when You offered it for testing.

(Here no altitude expected :)

Edit: I can´t switch to Icon or Icon-D2 when the connection is broken, it works immediately, when net comes back.

It seems, that the "service worker 👷‍♂ ", a browser tool only available ONLINE is needed to switch the models. It can also get lost when switching online/offline mode.

Now I have the SW-icon, but nevertheless can´t swich to offline.

After all that exercices it also can happen, that I can´t open the menu nor switch models, with or without SW👷‍♂, on or offmode .

Any Chance to add clear air turbulence to the downloadable layers for pilots?

it would be really useful for a sailor if no signal far away from coast

Hello, it would be super useful to do an offline mode on mobile in some format. I'm frequently in remote areas with no service and have to resort to screenshotting the app on my phone in multiple locations to keep a 5-7 day forecast for a long mission - would be awesome to be able to offline this with more detail.

@xander-wij Unfortunately, the offline mode was stopped as a project.

so then why we need to pay you a premium subscription if we cannot use it while offshore?
its more smart to pay subscription who supports this
im right?

Suty

@kleaksa I think our Premium offers much more than one feature extra, but it is up to you to decide if you want to use the Premium or not.

Hi Guys

Since modern Internet browsers introduced new technology "Service Worker", we have developed offline mode of Windy, thanks to it.

Offline mode was just released, and it is in testing mode.

It is available only for desktop browsers so far and can be reach just on this link: https://www.windy.com/[offline](https://faceitfinders.com/)

You are welcome to give it a decent try and let us know your feedback.

Thanks for sharing this update. I tried the new offline mode and it’s great to see Windy taking advantage of service workers for smoother access without a connection. I’ll keep testing it and share any feedback, but so far it’s a really promising addition
