@marekd it is possible to use route planner on windy on the web and not site windy premium !!!
what can i do ?

[idefix37]

@pascal-8
What do you mean with "not site windy premium" ?
I imagine you are talking about the Windy app ?
Yes, Route planner is not available in the app and you cannot do anything about it. As said above in this topic, "It is almost impossible to make route planner available at mobile phones due to the complexity of the UI".

Do you have any plans to add additional weather models for route planner, besides ECMWF? I'm particularly interested in ICON-EU & NEMS with bigger resolution for Europe 🙂

@igor-320 Hello, we may do it in the future.

A few months ago we discussed the possibility of using Route planner on iPad and I suggested to make it available via browser, if not possible via the app.
Now I see that Flight planner plugin can be used on iPad by bookmarking this link on Chrome:
https://www.windy.com/plugins?47.398,0.704,5

Apparently it uses a part of the Route planner UI.
Would it be possible to have Route planner available in the same way on iPad? Flight planner is a bit complicated for boating, Route planner is easier.

@idefix37 Unofficial, friendly info with no guarantees :-) We have mobile version of route planner in our timeline. It will take a while, because we need to improve something around login/registration and subscription. But after that, we will get into the route planner.

@marekd
Glad to know it. Thanks

@idefix37 I disagree, you don't need a huge database of polars , just the ability to upload ones polar as Excel file, just like all the other routing apps

[idefix37]

@Mais78
In weather routing softwares, I know that in addition to their own library of polars there is the possibility to add / modify .text polar files. But where do you find polars database in such format available for any boat?

@pnvalen
Route planner is not available on iPad or cell phones. If you have read the posts above, there a way to get it on iPad.

Great !! This feature was expected on mobiles by many users for sea trips or flights. This is a big step forward.
