      @xnewf May I ask what language do you use in Windy? Also do you meet this issue only for certain locations or everywhere?

      I would like to replicate the issue so I would like to have as much info as it is possible.

        Same thing happens to me. Clicking on ‘home’ icon, map goes to correct location. As soon as you tap on the 4-day weather at the top, the map centres on another location to the south. Same if you go to a favourite location or search for a location. Happens for all cities.

            @Ondřej-Šutera Using English. All favorites and every search defaults to same area. Just updated to latest iOS yesterday which did not affect the app

                @astfgl @inAjet @xnewf Hi, we probably found the cause of this issue and our colleagues started to work on the fix, so it will hopefully be solved soon. However, it happens when you have turned this button off. Could you please check that and let me know if the behavior gets better if you turn this feature on? 00e35022-67e8-4079-9c77-9935c968e866-image.png

                  @Ondřej-Šutera yes, turning that option back on fixes the issue; however, I prefer to have it selected off, so I’m glad to hear a fix is being worked on.

                  I use English language as well.

                  As the other users have reported, this wasn’t an issue until the latest update.

                    @Ondřej-Šutera That did fix the problem but I also prefer not to have that always on. I will do a full reinstall and check that as you advised.

                      @Ondřej-Šutera Full reinstall does not fix the issue. Have to keep that toggled map location on to have it function as it did before.

                          @Ondřej-Šutera not sure whether today’s release was intended to include the fix, but just fyi this behaviour is still occurring.

                            @inAjet this update, you mentioned, is a result of finishing the previous update. This issue will be solved probably in version 41, which should be out at the end of the year.

                                I have exactly the same issue since the time of the last update. If I click on a favourite location, the map moves 1000,s if km south, and if I go into favourites and select one, it displays primarily the right location, but elevated by the height of the details panel across the bottom of the screen.

                                  I am seeing the same with my Favorites. Easy to replicate:

                                  Go to any location. Create a Favorite of that location. Move to another location and then attempt to get back using the Favorite.

                                  Windy does not center over that location.

                                  Thanks for helping with this.

                                    For me switching on "move with map" does seem to fix the issue.

                                      For me switching on "move with map" does NOT fix the issue 100%. The map first jumps south and then back to the region of the favorite.

                                        Yes, the Move to match selection does get you to the location. You can then turn that feature off if you like, and continue at that location as usual.

                                          The same for me. The offset by which the map is off the selected location depends on the initial zoom when picking a favourite location. If I see whole middle Europe when picking, I end up somewhere in the Mediterranean sea, if the initial zoom is larger (I see smaller area), the offset is only several hundreds of kilometers. And always I have to shift back north, the longitude seems ok.
