      As a Premium user, previously I was able to open the Windy app on my PC, using Chrome, and the 1 hour forecast was the default. Some time ago, this changed and now when I open the app I have to switch from the persistent (default) 3 hour forecast to the 1 hour forecast. How can I make the 1 hour forecast be the persistent/default setting?

        In the settings you need to set the default time step to 1-hour.

          @idefix37 No matter which setting I use there I still get a 3h forecast/setting when I open the app. I logged off and back on and have the same problem.
          Doesn't your example show a 3 hour interval?
          I have screenshots from my computer but I can't figure out how to attach them to this reply.

                @Suty Thanks! And no matter which setting, 1h or 3h, I use it still defaults to 3h when I open the app on my PC. How to fix this?

                  @Fwindy1 So when you turn on that 1h forecast switch under the forecast detail and refresh the app, it still switches back to 3h?

                    @Suty Yes, I used the refresh button on Chrome (after switching to 1h) and it immediately switched back to the 3h forecast.

                      @Fwindy1 Please try to close the app and then open the Windy with empty URL windy.com without anything else.

                        @Suty Ok, I did that and clicked on a saved location to see the weather report and I found the same problem. The slider is set to 1h in the settings and the result is a 3h forecast.Screenshot 2025-06-23 3.png Screenshot 2025-06-23 4.png

                          @Fwindy1 But that slider in the left screenshot doesn't mean 1h or 3h depending on the side of the slider. If you turned that on, it will save your last used option in the detail (screenshot on the right).
