      Re: How to set up a Windy Alert

      Hey!

      I just bought Premium for this such a great product! I was trying to create alerts but I noticed there are some improvement points:

      1. I couldn't figure out how to define new alerts on Windy IOS app. So I have to use desktop website. Is there any doc for mobile?
      2. Even though default temperature is set to Celsius on my settings, I see Fahrenheit while creating temperature alert (So I couldn't create a temp alert) - is there any workaround?
      3. There is no options to create alerts for UV Index, NO2, SO2, Dust Particles, Air Quality, etc. There is very limited options. (I thought there is - this was one of my initial motivations to buy premium) - is there any workaround? or ongoing discussion for this?
      4. Can I use Windy API to fetch my alerts or define new alerts? I couldn't see it on the docs: https://api.windy.com/point-forecast/docs

      Thank you!

        Hi,

        1. To define an alert in the iOS app, select a location with the crosshairs pointer and click on Forecast for this location to open the point forecast panel. At right end of this panel click on Alert for this spot.

        1. I just switched to Fahrenheit to make a test. This what I get

        1. No, there no way to set alerts for all parameters you listed, and no workaround. I heard that Windy should launch new alert features. So it is possible that the list of parameters are extended.

        2. API specialists may answer.

          Thank you @idefix37 for prompt reply!

          1. How did you get screenshot? In my IOS Mobile app, the UI looks different and I still couldn't see the "Create Alert" button

          2. Thank you, probably I forgot to set Celcius in settings, and it seems working now.

          3. It'd be great and the UX would be better!

            1. At right end of the forecast table that you show in your post.
              Scroll it completely to the left as when you want to see the forecast for the next 10 days.
