Route Planner
Sorry for the my lack of understanding of this design. If I select a route by car/hike and and submit my speed, then why in the world would the units be meters per second???
Who would take the time to convert from mph??? Surely I am missing something. -
-
Is it possible to keep the weather picker on all the time even when viewing a forecast?
-
@idefix37 Thanks!!!
-
@vict90 happens to me also on S21 Ultra. I also find that the weather overlays don't refresh when following a planned route VFR (unless it is just a lot of lag)?
-
Great additions! Please include flight level 180 to the VFR route planner meteogram.

RE: New Version:
Just started checking out the new version of Windy. So far I have to say that I liked the old version of distance planning better. I have trouble getting it to layout a planed rout. I get one started the it disappears or pin points a waypoint I don’t want or the rout just disappears. Maybe I need to do something different I don’t know. These are very air routs I am referring to. -
It's a pity you've made so many changes at the same time. I believe I'm not alone in pointing out that it's far more preferrable to have a list of layers rather than these nasty thumbnails or whatever you may call them. Why not the option to toggle? The timeline bar at the bottom disappears and you have to kill the app to get it back. Not funny. I guess you're counting on users learning to navigate the new version. I wouldn't be so hopeful. Like most, I'm just a regular guy who's not willing to read a manual to get the knack all over again. And regular guys we've already migrated weather apps before. Yet it's sad to see how something good can be ruined pointlessly.

The new version turned the before excellent app into a rubbish.
The radar widget simply doesn't work at all!
As the "uruk" user poined out, just too many changes and I absolutely agrre that "it's far more preferrable to have a list of layers rather than these nasty thumbnails or whatever you may call them".
I used to use this app on hourly base - now looking for alternatives.
So sad how you ruined this! -
-
Is there a way to get rid of the big clunky pictures in the menu, and bring it back to the list. The list was ready to read, pictures are harder to scroll through and figure out what they mean.

Apologies for the auto incorrectly replacing my words. I meant to say, the list was easy to read the way it was previously.
-
@Shelleyshell We are collecting feedback from users right now, so I am not able to tell you if this will be back or not.

sempre piu preciso e ottima visuale, complimenti ,comprero la versione premium, bravissimi.
-
Great work on all the improvements.
I would like to know if there is a way of setting the maximum level shown in VFR mode? It seems to be set at FL 100. Can it be set to something higher?
Is there a way of deleting a waypoint in the route without having to delete everything? -
@mpirbay
Yes tap the waypoint and press the small cross.

@David-Polášek Could there be an option for those of us who are too used to the original UI so we could switch back to it if we wanted?
-
owners of PWS are forgotten again !!

I use windy since years, it was the best wind app available.
Now a terrible update indeed:
Terrible new crosshair / location picker. I want to be able to zoom to a specific region and then tap on different locations to see the specific forecast for those locations. Before the update this was easily possible. I DO NOT want to be forced to move the map to see the forecast for a different location. I DO NOT want the map to auto-scroll, when I select a new location via "forecast for this location".
Stupid new layer list. Why show "some colorful thumbnails" that require lots of screen space instead of a compact, informative list of available layers as before.
You developers ruined the user experience that was perfect before. I seriously consider to downgrade to the previous version.
PLEASE provide a legacy mode for the location picker. As it is now, its a huge downgrade in user experience.
-
@Ftjwinfs thank you for saving my time and writing how sad is new picker.
I don't want app to select new random spot while I'm zooming in/out and still thinking which direction should I go.
