    • RE: API Trial suitable for home use?

      I am yet another Windy Premium Subscriber who is willing to pay for a Home Assistant Integration. I am actually right now looking into the weather service I am going to subscribe to next, when My yearly Premium Subscription with Windy is expired. I would love to stay with Windy as I LOVE the App, but right now I am paying for an OpenWeatherMap Subscription so that I can use their API in my Home Assistant so that I can use my automations that are triggered based on the weather, and it doesn't make sense to subscribe to 2 Weather Services, when one can do everything I want. I do prefer the Windy App, but the automations are even more important to my daily life.

      I really hope you guys wake up to the fact that there is a market out there of paying customers who just want to be able to use your services inside Home Assistant, and start providing that ability.

      I do like the product, but will be unsubscribing when my subscription is up, if this ability still isn't offered. Simply because other services, who aren't quite as accurate as you but are good enough, are willing to provide the ability to integrate with Home Assistant, and you are not. I really do hope this changes in the near future. Thank You.

      Putting my money where my mouth is. Windy customer support has been reaching out to me because its time for my premium membership to renew but I had locked my card to not allow any more purchases through, so they have been emailing me asking me to update my card so that they can get their money for the next year of services.

      I checked to see if they have even bothered to respond to this thread this year, and they haven't. Its a shame because I love the service, but I need to be able to create automations in home assistant triggered by the weather data, and they still haven't even entertained the idea of implementing it (Or if they have they haven't bothered updating us).

      So, I am putting my money where my mouth is, and will be going with a competitor that doesn't have as accurate of data, but they care enough to take the time to make a Home Assistant Integration, so I will not be renewing my membership. But I will keep an eye on this thread, the second the company decides to take advantage of this segment of the market, I will subscribe again. Would love to hear the services you guys have been using for your weather data in home assistant.
