Android app crashes when trying to view reported temp/wind/recent precip.
-
Android app version 48.0.2, Android 15, Redmi Note 13.
When choosing to display one of these options mentioned in the title, they do correctly appear on the map. But once I click on any of the displayed stations, the "observation data loading" appears at the bottom and the app completely freezes. A few times it even completely crashed the phone's UI as well, which reloaded once I was able to force close Windy.
I have tried multiple times. The app always crashes.
Please check and fix this. Thanks.

@Suty Hi, it's been a long time and I honestly didn't check, but yesterday I noticed the issue again and remembered that I reported this quite some time ago. The Android Windy app still crashes in this case every single time.
Steps to repeat the problem: display any of the three weather station options: reported wind, reported temp., reported precip. - this still works and the stations appear on the map. But then, just click on any of all the displayed stations and the app instantly freezes. It has to be force-closed and reopened to work again. Did you ever find out what's causing this and how and when it may be fixed? Thank you very much.
Current Windy Android app version 50.1.1. / Android 15

@meiersa78 To be completely honest with you, I remember this issue a few years ago in our Android app. However, since then we don't have any similar reports about this issue. I also tested our latest version of Windy (v.51) and there is no issue with this. I will check more devices and let you know.

@Suty Hi, I've noticed something regarding this issue. When I turn on any of those three options (reported wind, temp., precip.) and then just move the map on my phone so that the crosshair is over one of the many stations displayed on the map, the correct data of that station is shown at the top of the screen. I can move the map around as much as I like and as soon as the crosshair is over a station, I see that data. But, as soon as I tap on any of the displayed stations, Windy freezes instantly. So it has something to do with the "tapping" function.
