Startup Location

Re: Startup location

Like others have reported, the startup location for me is always where I first started using Windy. Of course I now am sailing 1000's of miles from where that was so it is somewhat annoying.

I originally started using Windy for free and then some years ago switched to Premium membership.

• I have tried different browsers (Chrome, Firefox) and different laptops.
• I have changed from Windows 10 to Windows11
• I have changed all available settings in the startup layer and location
• The startup layer always works no matter which layer is chosen
• The startup location is always wrong and always the same no matter which method of choosing the startup location is used.
• The startup location indicated in settings is remembered correctly just ignored

Obviously this bug is not a show stopper but it can be very irritating at times.

Thanks

Does your laptop have a GPS chip?

@idefix37 No. It does not have a GPS chip.

So it works by IP. Not accurate.
