@stevecrye Hi, just applied latest update (storm from space splash screen) Hover -over with Note 9 pen still not bringing up details for Paragliding spots. Works from my Note 9 with Chrome and Firefox if I browse to Windy.com.

This has to be something in the api toolkit that has changed. It was working back in February.

Thanks,

Steve

@TomSlavkovsky Hi Tom. I just applied the latest update (Baloons) , bug is still present. I cant be sure when it last worked, perhaps February? It definitely has not worked since Android Pie hit my Samsung Galaxy Note 9.
Thanks for checking!

@ivo Thanks for looking, Ivo! My phone is a Verizon Note 9 running Android Pie. Please see my reply to Tom.

@TomSlavkovsky Thanks! FYI the problem is intermittent. Yesterday, for a few minutes, the hover with stylus worked . Then I closed the Android app and it stopped working. I have tried soft reset but that did not fix it.

@kekert Hello, any progress on the bug? Symptoms persist; hover-over paragliding spots with the Note 9 stylus works if using Chrome or Firefox, but with the Android app no details pop up when hovering with the stylus.

@kekert Thanks for the quick reply! The problem happens with any of the hundreds of little PG icons when Windy is ser to display them . I used to be able to hover over them with my stylus, and just like hovering over them with a mouse on the browser, the details would pop up. That stopped working in the Android app. Interestingly, on my Note 9 if I go to Windy.com in Chrome on the phone, the details work if I hover over using my stylus. Just not in the app. See attached.

The missing PG spot is called Nelson's Launch, located in El Paso TX.

Hi,

One of our local flying sites that has been in Paragliding Earth for more than two years is no longer visible in Windy.

In the past, I could hover over the PG icons with the stylus on my Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and the detail for the site would pop up. That no longer works. The stylus works fine in other apps.

I'm a subscriber and would appreciate a reply from Windy support.

Thanks,

Steve

Love the sounding feature! But it defaults to meters for altitude, in the USA and many county, aviation altitude is always in feet. Can you please set the new feature to use the app units preferred?

Hi;

I've been a fan of Windy since version 1. I am a paraglider pilot and use it to forecast flying conditions. I hate to complain about a free service but ...

I had not updated the app for about 30 weeks, because I had seen the new version on other phones and hated it. I was finally forced to update because the detailed topo map would not load.

Now I'm very sad. The updated interface is horrible! Can't just touch the map to get direction and speed, instead must pick from a pop-up menu. The altitude slider is gone, instead it is buried in the Wind map, which must be accessed first, then slide for altitude, then close. Before, the, slider was always there on the right for quick access. Now the layers menu is hidden two levels deep! Good grief!! This is bad, bad design. I'm baffled as to why anyone would prefer it.

I will pay $100 for a version that works like the old one, with a functioning Topo map.

If the next version is not better, can't we please have a "legacy GUI option"?

The new version is really hard to use. Please, I'm begging.

Steve

@bilbo-baggins Tried a re-install? What version of Android?
