Where are the migrated alerts?
-
question:
what will happen if i decide to not migrate any alerts/warnings until 15.05?
-
@Mista-Fly They will be probably completely deleted, since we have huge numbers of favs and alerts from users that are not active and don't use these at all.
-
@Suty
but the fav section itself will not be deleted for sure? -
@greggmaloof
At a location check the forecast for Waves & tides
-
It would be great to have the notifications ordered in different ways (Alphabetical, number of hours of matching criteria,…). Right now, I do not understand the way it is ordered

can you please be more clear on this?
at the moment my problem is that if i press the migration button, the favorite spot is gone.
which is a very very bad behaviour.
after migration i have to rename the spot again and save it to the favorite section.so what will be deleted after 15.05?
all favs? or just the setted alerts for the favorites? -
@Mista-Fly Hi, the favorite section will be kept, only alerts that are not migrated will be completely deleted probably. But there is a plenty of time and we are working on easier solution for users with tenths or hundreds of alerts to migrate.

Hi
Just a message to let you know that I am also so so disappointed about this update. I used this app every day for weather alerts for my sports and the red lines in favorite view was perfect. Now in notifications sections it’s not convenient at all to read the next weather opportunities regarding all my alerts.
I don’t use push notifications to inform me but I go myself in the app, a good start to improve readability would be to to display in notification view in first place the alert triggered (with red mark) in second place notifications not triggered and in third place the notifications disabled
Thank you, I am ready to help if you want more user feedback

Red bars are still shown in the 5 days forecast of the Notifications list.
Clicking on this notification graph, you get the detail in your Favorite forecast table.
Note that the 5 days forecast of the Notifications list is probably inconsistent because the graph seems to be the one of ECMWF and my chosen model for this notification is Meteoblue.

@idefix37
Thanks for your answer !
I know that red bars appears in alerts but I have so much alerts so it’s not readable
Developers should order them
It was much better experience before the update -
@poloh11
OK, I see. When an alert was triggered, previously the favorite was automatically placed at the top of the list. This was a very useful feature even with a limited number of alerts. -
the issue with the new alerts functionality stays the same.
it is no more that convenient anymore!
if the readability of the alerts does not change i think about quiting my premium membership, because this makes windy totally irrelevant to me. -
@Mista-Fly Hi, data for our alerts are still taken from the forecast provided by ECMWF and other models and you can choose the model now. What exactly are you missing?
-
The new notifications and favourites are shit, too difficult to see quickly and too many clicks/taps to access info. You did bad and you should feel bad. Just change it comrade, you had a winning formula.

@Mustapha-Mond
I totally agree that the new notification system is a backward step. While I can apprecate that the developers were trying to make an inprovement to the system, it has significantly reduced the usefulness of the premium features. Can I respectfully request that this new feature is rolled back to the previous system. -
Roll back please !!!!!!!
-
@Suty
please just listen to the users, i am not the only one that sees the ,new improvement' as a big DISIMPROVEMENT. -
maybe you should try to migrate 100's of spots with alerts yourself to see the big disadvantages that we have due to the given changes now.
one of the major problems is that the order of spots is totally mixed up.
the migrated spot is always pinned to the top of the list, both... in favorites and also in the alerts section to bring that in ones prefered order again it would take hours -
in favs section where the migrated spot is always pinned to the top you cant change the order that easily, you have to first unpin every other spot from the top, than u have to repin them in your desired order back again.
in the alerts section you have to press and hold the spot and bring it manually in desired order back again + pressing and holding the mechanism itsself is not working properly at all.
tried it with a few spots so far.
all in all this new haptic is very very inconvinient!!! -

What exactly are you missing?
We are missing:
- Alphabetical ordering
- The possibility of searching (not using the browser's text search menu option; Ctrl-F goes to Windy's search box, which is not useful for this function as it does not search Notifications)
That's essentially it.
And then we would also need:
- The ability to filter by a maximum amount of rain, not a minimum (it might be useful for a farmer, but for the vast majority of sports, what is needed is just the opposite)
- The ability to export and manage the Notifications list properly
Easy solutions:
Go back to the previous functionality, with FavoritesAnd fundamentally: if you ask us what we are missing, it is that you have not tried or do not use these functions, because the changes are clearly for the worse. It is a practically inoperative list and it doesn't even work correctly to move the notifications. Try it and you will see. It's easy.
