    Is it normal for model to default to ECMWF every time?

      @Suty no worries.
      It worked today. I have HRRR on the widget, opened using the widget and it opened with HRRR.
      Strange intermittent behaviour...

        @Wheats Is it possible that you received the update to our latest version already? Can you please check it?

          I have the same problem and have always wondered why I can't preset my preferred weather model. It's not in the settings. Every time I open the app, ECMWF is displayed. My location: Hamburg, my preference: ICON D2.

            @Suty This morning when I opened it using the widget (Windy Detail Widget), with HRRR showing on the widget, it opened with the ECMWF model, not the HRRR.

            Samsung Galaxy S23 FE
            Android v15
            Wind v47.1.4

            Same version as before so I didn't get an update yet.

            I do want to take this time to reiterate how amazingly useful it would be to allow users to select what model they want to see on startup. Please work on this.

              @Wheats Could you please update Windy to the latest version? It should be v.47.2 and it should be already out for all users.

                This morning I opened using the widget set to HRRR - the app opened with HRRR.
                Still running v47.1.4 and manually (it's set to auto-update Windy) checked the play store and there are no updates available.
                It says Windy last updated on October 29, 2025.
                I have restarted the device and no change to available updates.

                  @Wheats Hi, can you please check it once again? We have progressive release, so it usually takes about one week to fully release the new version.

                    This morning I tried to open via app, and there was "no data" on any of the layers.
                    I've rebooted my phone, have HRRR set on the widget, opened via the widget and it opened with HRRR, but there's still no data on layers. When I zoomed way out from my starting location, the layer data appeared. It shows I'm running v47.2.1 now.

                    My mobile shows this one error in the error console.
                    If you need the stuff I blacked out, please let me know.Screenshot_20251112_115543_Windy.jpg

                      @Wheats Okay, unfortunately, this message is not related to the issue, you mentioned. Does it happen with every new start of the app?

                        @Suty That is unfortunate haha.

                        This morning I opened the widget, set to HRRR, and Windy opened with HRRR.
                        I saw the error message again.
                        I deleted messages, closed everything, restarted phone, opened via app (it opened with HRRR again) and the same error is in fact present.

                        So I'd say yes, it happens with every new start of the app.
