      Why change this app? Why make the wind velocity Disappear when you press play for hourly forecasting? Why make accessing my preferred features more difficult to see?

      No one I know who uses this app is happy about the changes.

        @Themonsheshe I feel the same - I was surprised I was not able to pinpoint a location to get weather updates. I much prefer the previous release - this new update makes the usability worst than before.

          Now you need to set how long you want to keep it at screen. The default setting is 3 seconds:

            I tried to adapt to the new logic of use and partly, I managed. However, there is two things that confuse me:

            1. why is the location picker located in the upper quarter of the screen and not in the middle?
            2. the route weather was a feature on my wish list. Thank you so much. However, it seems to display wind direction incorrecly. I was planning a trip with most westerly winds in 3000ft, but the route weather stip shows wind from the south?

            Please fix it, give us some time to adapt to the new logic, and it will be great!

              Yes, this is an important bug which prevents using the Route planner in the mobile app until the bug is fixed.
