After the last update, you changed the weather picker to a plus and it can be closed after 3,6,9,12 seconds or never.

That was a bad change.

First, when I move the weather picker on the map, then the nearest weather station opens. I am not interested in that. And because of that, the movement of the map and the weather picker is slow and "heavy" on my tablet.

Let's say I want to check the temperature 5 days ahead on a certain spot, then the weather picker closes after 12 seconds. If I choose never, yes, then I can check the temperature days ahead. But the next time I open the windy app and I move the map, then the movement is slow and heavy, and I must go into settings and autoclose the weather picker. It was a lot easier to move the old weather picker, and to open/close it.

So this is a step backward. At least it should be possible to choose if I want to open all the weather stations or not. Now I prefer pc, not the tablet.

I totally agree. Lets get our old weather picker back.

The new weather picker opens automatically. Why?

In previous version I could drag the weather picker wherever I wanted. Now I have to center the map. Why? Very annoying because doing so, it opens every weather station it touches when I drag the map. Why does it open weather stations which are not relevant to me?

My tablet is lagging so heavily and it is so annoying that I can not use this weather picker.

So yes, I am considering other weather apps because of this.

Hi,

There is no option to always have the weather picker closed. Now it's from 3 seconds to always on. I was really disappointed when the new version of Windy was released, and discovered that the weather picker was unchanged. Why can't we have a option where it is always closed?

The new weather picker is especially annoying when using a tablet. I really want it disabled as default.

I agree. I have complained several times about the location picker when using a tablet. The previous was much easier to use.

So, they should listen to the community.

Hi,

The crosshair can be set to minimum 3 seconds until it disappears,and it can always be on. But why isn't off an option? Can you please fix it?

I totally agree. I have complained about this several times. It should be so easy to fix. Very annoying on my tablet and mobile phone.

Sv: PLEASE add a config option to disable the weather picker (crosshair)

Can someone tell me WHY the crosshair can't be disabled?

My tablet and phone lags because of this. I truly don't understand why this feature can't be implemented.

@idefix37 Please, please, give us who use a tablet this choice: Always off.

@idefix37

Yes, you are right regarding Android tablet, but I'm really used to use only one finger.
Google Maps, one finger. Reading newspapers, one finger. Scrolling, one finger. And so on.

It's more difficult to navigate using two fingers on a tablet.

It should be an option to permanetly disable it.
