Viewing uploads on the app/mobile
-
hi, new Premium user here. I recently uploaded a kml file to Windy that shows the centerline and umbra width of the upcoming total solar eclipse. It will be handy on the desktop version for finding a cloud-free zone to watch the eclipse. But I can't see the upload on my phone, even when I use google chrome to log into Windy ... it still knows I am using a mobile platform I guess. Since the kml file has been uploaded to the cloud, can you make it possible to use it from inside the app?

I agree, it would be really useful to be able to view kml files using the phone app.

someone told me that if you upload gpx files, you might be able to see it on the app (phone or tablet) but I still cannot see it (on the app; on the computer is fine). Is it just not really possible to see uploaded (my) files on the windy app?

Hi, I don´t know if you have already solved this problem or not. Today I am struggling the same topic. The only chance how to make the Uploader tool visible in the mobile app is, to send (somehow) the web link with your imported track (kml, gpx..) which you created via your desktop (web) app. Then, once you click on the link in your mobile device, the Windy app opens together with the Uploader "plug-in". There you can see your cloud saved files or you can open other kml/gpx files saved in your mobile device....

I also found an other option: Once you open your file (kmp, gpx..) in the Uploader plugin in the desktop Windy app you DO NOT make the choice: "Save file to cloud" BUT choice the option "Open in route planner" and then you choice the option on the bottom bar "Save into your favourites". Thus, you will find your kml or gpx file/track in your Favourites bookmark in your mobile device as well. -
@Pavel-Matysek Hi we are planning to offer using uploader on the mobile platform as well, but I am not able to tell now when exactly it will be done.
