mobile app differs from desktop app

Hi @Achilli-Maurizio, are You sure same altitude is selected in both versions? Altitude in mobile version is 13.5km (flight level 450). Can't say what altitude is selected on the laptop (web) version because it is cropped, but it might be surface.

@Filip_K Good observation! It does seem like the mobile version is set to an altitude of 13.5km (flight level 450). If the laptop (web) version is cropped, it could indeed be showing the surface level. To ensure accurate comparisons, it might be helpful to check the altitude settings on both devices. Thanks for pointing that out!

@Carry-locus @Carry_locus That's a great insight! The altitude discrepancy between the mobile and web versions could indeed affect the comparison. I'll definitely check the altitude settings on both platforms to ensure consistency in the future, Thanks for the tip!

Windy App is an excellent tool for weather tracking, offering highly accurate forecasts with stunning visualizations. Its real-time wind, rain, and temperature maps make it perfect. is windy have an desktop app?

The Windy mobile app sometimes shows different data than the desktop version, which can be confusing. It would really help if both stayed consistent without needing to adjust settings each time.

Interesting point. Just as varying state policies create unequal outcomes for food aid recipients, different altitude defaults between mobile and web views can distort comparisons. Verifying each platform’s settings helps ensure we’re interpreting the same data. Standardizing inputs, whether in mapping tools or programs, is essential for fair, accurate conclusions.
