@ronwestlake Yes, the new version is so buggy and less intuitive. Timeline still dissappears.

Windy was such a great app before. It's not my favourite app anymore. I may not resubscribe next time and will look for an app that is easier to use. 🙏✌️

@vict90 It is more laggy and sometimes menu items disappear or don't work. The timeline disappears randomly. The former app was perfect. Not now. 😓

@JJager That's just a really unkind way to express your disappointment. Sure, share your frustrations but to say it like that says more about you, than the service you are criticising.

Windy is not 'predicting' which is an indication of your limited experience. Windy offers modelling, from various providers, which we are called to assess and compare. Windy has the best weather app offering by far, IMO, although of course it does have some imperfections.

The modelling for the most recent snowfall in my area was spot on - because I was aware of the limitations of each model and assessed those limits accordingly.

@kirc Yes, it was an excellent app before. I'm concerned that they have made so many changes without much (if any?) consultation with the many subscribers that use the app?

Are the same staff still there? Or is it a much bigger organisation now?

The weather picker was brilliant. You could screen shot after hovering over a given height and area (say 500hPa) and have the atmospheric situation concisely portrayed. I don't like the new app. It feels a bit dumbed down. I have a good phone with 6GB of RAM and it just doesn't work well on this phone compared to the previous app.

It's not the same app, with the same professional polish. I don't want to unsubscribe but if they continue with this app, I am looking at two other options instead of Windy which is sad. I hope they are listening to us.

I'm an older person, so maybe my thoughts are not so important but as a writer, web admin with many thousands of followers and subscribers, I do know how important it is to listen to those that follow my work. I can't recall any surveys or polls about the new app? Whether we were happy with the previous app etc? It was an excellent offering before.

Please offer us the previous app. It really was better. More usable. More enjoyable.

I don't really have time to make too many more comments or posts. This new app has taken a lot of my time - when in reality, all I want to do, is enjoy the gift of atmospheric science and the people I write for.

✌️🤞🙏

I love Windy. It has been the best app by far. I promote it to my 25,000 followers. Sadly, the new app isn't great. Too many glitches and bugs. And it's slow.

Timeline dissappears randomly

Extended forecast button won't always work

App is now too slow

Please return to the previous app. 🙏

This is a fantastic addition. Those of us from Australia will really appreciate the offerings from this well known model. I am actively involved in the weather fraternity in Australia (around 20,000 subscribers) and promote your app often.

@Ben-Whitehead Yes, it has been a fantastic app for years that I have promoted. Sadly, it's becoming more basic without the beautifully refined offerings it used to have. I so wish the Windy staff would listen to us and return to the previous version.

I'm going to do a poll on my social media about this. ✌️🙏

Thanks so much for this wonderful app. I've also subscribed. I run a busy community forecasting website with about 20,000 subscribers and will promote the Windy App there.

This COVID-19 situation is indeed extremely serious. I have friends who work in health services and it is heart breaking to see so many folk dying across the world. Even those who don't die, many of them will suffer from permanent damage.

It's not my death that overly frightens me, it's the incredible suffering of others in poorer and vulnerable countries that frightens me. I am more than willing to lose work and indeed, work from home - to help deal with this awful virus.

Thanks again, for this wonderful app. In more than three decades of weather forecasting, I have never seen anything like it.

A bit sad to see that the cloud profiles have not returned to the AirGrams, since they were accidentally omitted some time ago. Even though we've had two more updates.

We've got a cold change on the south east coast of Australia into the new week and the AirGram cloud profiles are such an important feature.

I so wish I had kept the older version of Windy that had this feature but Windy advised us that the old app would stop working...🙏✌️

I've given the new version of Windy with the graphical interface every chance to impress me but sadly, it just hasn't.

I still have to press the extended menu up to ten times to get it to open and the whole layout of Windy these days is just too clunky and not as easy to use.

I really miss the former version of Windy and am not sure I will resubscribe.

Kind regards,

Another two weeks and still no return of the original AirGram layout, with cloud heights. Hopefully it returns soon. ✌️🙏

Still no sign of an update. Sadly, I've had to move to another airgram offering from another provider. I don't want to do this but it's such an important part of forecasting. Looking forward to Windy fixing this very important feature.

@pescal Yes, its a crucial, distinctive aspect of the Windy app that brings me back, every day. Sadly, not at the moment...

@Suty Thanks. Hope it's resolved soon. To be told to update the app otherwise my current app will stop working, only to find a notable bug, is concerning... 🙏

I updated to the latest version after being told I must, as my current version would soon stop working.

Sadly, the AirGram is now missing cloud features again...

What has happened?

@Suty This is why I don't update the app anymore, until checking the forums. I'll stay with the previous version of the app. ✌️

And, the cloud profile in the Airgram has been returned to the desktop. So, as a workaround, we can view it on our phones by choosing 'desktop site' .

I am so looking forward to the cloud profile returning in the app. It makes the Windy Airgrams, the best of their kind in the world. 🙏✌️

@Suty Sadly, the more popular a project becomes, the more often there will be the occasional offensive post, complaining. 🙏
