I've been happily benefiting from the range of tools Windy offers its user base. Your product is truly exceptional.

One area for improvement, in my opinion, lies within the forecast interface. As you know, when one pulls up a forecast for a location, the view along the bottom of the screen (whether web-based or iOS app-based) defaults to BASIC. I have never wanted the BASIC view of a weather forecast; instead, I opt for the information offered in the METEOGRAM view. So every single time I open Windy and pull up a forecast, I have to switch from BASIC to METEOGRAM.

Please consider adding a user-savable preference to default to some forecast view other than BASIC (specifically allowing METEOGRAM as one option). Thank you.

Dear Windy Development Team,

When searching for locations within the United States, Windy shows the location name, county name, and the country. For example:

Twin Peaks - Iron County - United States

As has been stated a number of times before this post, I don't know of a single person who knows county names (beyond perhaps a few close to where they live). Everybody in the United States, however, does know state names.

A quick Google search states that there are more than 3000 counties in the United States. So really, no average person would know more than just the few closest counties.

When I search for Twin Peaks, Windy yields the following:

• Twin Peaks - San Bernadino County, United States
• Twin Peaks - Salt Lake County, United States
• Twin Peaks - Sandoval Country, United States
• Twin Peaks - Iron County, United States

Because I don't know county names, I am forced to do a google search for each county in the four results to figure out which State the particular Twin Peaks resides in. If Windy listed the State rather than the County, then I wouldn't have to perform those four extra searches.

To compound matters even more, if you look at Twin Peaks in Iron County, my google search yields three possible states that have an Iron County. Those include Utah, Wisconsin and Michigan. So Windy's results for that particular Twin Peak is ambiguous.

I would like to ask Windy (for U.S. locations) to please either replace the county name with the state name, or to add the state name. In my opinion, helpful results could be formatted in one of the following possibilities:

• Twin Peaks - Utah - United States

or alternatively

• Twin Peaks - Utah - Iron Country - United States

Thank you.

Whenever I pull up the forecast for a specific location, I change the "DISPLAY AS..." setting (iOS App ... unnamed in the web interface) from BASIC to METEOGRAM. Please add a user preference to specify the default DISPLAY AS... setting. Alternatively, please implement a feature that automatically remembers and recalls the last option chosen whenever the app or website is re-invoked. #meteogram #display_as #feature_request

@vsinceac

Yes. Mapy.cz provides a solid template for what might work well to disambiguate search results. Thank you for adding value to this request.

@korina

Thank you again. I just responded to your earlier response. I now see this one in which you commit to looking at it for future releases. I appreciate your willingness to seek a solution.

Roger

@korina

I understand that they are your map provider. I will offer that suggestion to them. Since you are their direct customer, however, I suspect a request from you might be more persuasive. That is, of course, if you agree the suggestion has merit. Thank you.
