Windy Downgraded Premium! It’s supposed to be a reliable tool. Now a frustrating fumbling techno mess.

@hythlodaeus Windy functionality for planning my time swimming in ocean currents affected regions is also drastically and unambiguously wrecked. Windy is acting with utter disrespect by splitting chart information that must be contiguous for viewing, visually scanning and mentally planning i to multiple screens with different type fonts some of which I find painful to read even with reading glasses. They are unapologetic, unhelpful and apparently incompetent to improve and learn from mistakes. I have written detailed reports with screenshots. Cancelled my premium subscription and pissed off that i have supported with money and recommended this app to others who also need to make safe plans

@Ondřej-Šutera I also just realized what has changed on the tide forecasts for tide height and current spreeds. The data that appears in an upper screen banner for a cross hair on tidal station disappears too rapidly for me to read and digest and is cumbersome to bring back. When I touch open the tidal station the recent past data and next few hours data from the banner is missing. This data used to appear and remain onscreen in the station data charts. This is frustrating. I understand many of your users are from more screen trained generations. This has the unfortunate feeling of a video game with things appearing and disappearing by the apps programming. At 70 yrs, I need data that i can study and consider. Thanks for your understanding.

I just went back to the screens. There is ~10 hrs of relevant data missing from the front end times on the station chart. That is the data that appears and disappears in the banner. The text size in the banner is much smaller than the chart and also gives difficulty in reading it under pressure of disappearing. Please, at least include all the data back in the stable onscreen chart as it was before: all the data in one place, not toggling back and forth. I choose my target times swimmming in the water with due consideration to the water exchanges before and after. Now I am forced to toggle screens back and forth multiple times.

I utilize this site to decide and settle my plans and like the confidence that results. It actually had been a pleasure to use. This new experience is quite the opposite; frustrating, unsettling and somewhat confusing. I am finding it quite difficult to formulate my plans now

The new graphics for tides, currents are rude to the eyes: like Pop art. Please revert. The current info is too abbreviated
