      Hoping someone knows an easy fix for this.

      I have my home location saved as a Favorite.
      When I click on a favorite its forecast is displayed at the bottom of the screen. (so far so great!).

      However, the Favorites forecast blocks the slider that allows you to play the weather from the last hour and into the next hour forecast. In order to see that feature you have to close your favorite (and thus lose the location dot on the map).

      I often want to zoom out and see if the thunderstorms are going to pass over our house, but when I close the favorite and zoom out to play the animation I no longer have the blinking white dot to identify my location.

      thanks.

        @kaimcbride Update: I see that I can just leave the Favorites Heart Icon on the map at all times and that gives me the functionality that I need.

          @kaimcbride Hi, it seems that you want to have your home location as the startup/default one, when you open the windy and also you would like to use the timeline in the radar layer probably, correct?
