Hi Joe, @joe-vallino, Thank you for your patience. We currently have a high number of new webcam submissions, so the review process may take a little longer than usual. However, I have just checked your webcam and approved it. You should receive a confirmation email shortly, and the webcam should appear on the Windy map within the next few hours. You can find it here: https://www.windy.com/webcams/1793911115. Thank you for adding your webcam to Windy! KR, Marketa

RE: Possible stale webcam images despite recent lastUpdatedOn timestamps
Hello Andreas, @AdreasGr, Thank you for your feedback. Could you please send us an email at webcams@windy.com with a link to this Community post, along with a few examples of webcams that you believe are not up to date? Ideally, please include the Windy webcam IDs. You can find them in the webcam URL after opening the webcam in your browser—for example: 1704893132. This will help our developers investigate the issue more efficiently. Thank you in advance! KR, Marketa

RE: Sale suggestion.
Hi @CalmKoala, thanks a lot for the suggestion and for sharing your experience. At the moment, we don’t offer discounts or sales, but if we decide to do so in the future, we’ll make sure to let users know directly in the app. We really appreciate your support and kind words!

RE: WebCam Milesovka
Hello @lukas-brinda, thanks for reaching us. I passed on the information about the non-functioning camera to my colleagues and they will look into the problem.

RE: Duplicate charges
Hello @翊隆-鄭, there was a misunderstanding because you provided two different email addresses, so we were unable to locate your message at first. We've found it now, and you should already have our reply in your inbox. Please send us the Transaction ID (txn) for the payment you'd like to have refunded. You can find it on the invoice sent to you by Paddle. Once we receive the Transaction ID, we'll identify the payment and take care of the refund. KR, Marketa

RE: I have a question for Windy.com.
Hi @ColdCoreStorm, thanks for your message and for your interest in adding your camera. At the moment, we unfortunately do not support YouTube cameras. Our system is not able to reliably handle them, mainly because the stream URL often changes (tokens get updated), which causes the stream to stop working on our side. That said, it doesn’t mean we are not interested in supporting them in the future. Our developers are already working on a possible solution, and in the meantime, we are keeping these submissions in our system. We’re sorry for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience.

RE: Since update webcams are unavailable
Hi @woodsong, thanks for letting us know. We checked everything and Drive BC completely changed its website and API, which caused the cameras from Windy to disappear. However, we are already working on it and will hopefully add them back soon. You also mentioned other Canadian cameras that are not on the map. Could you give us some examples, even though it will probably be quite difficult since you can't see them in Windy now? We will look into them as well. Thank you!

RE: Cannot edit webcam location
Hello guys, @oavv-segemar and @clauzz, thanks for reporting this — we’re aware of the issue and have passed it to our developers; I’ve manually corrected both cameras and the changes should be live within a few hours. If anyone else experiences this, please add your cameras (with coordinates) to this thread and we’ll update them one by one.

RE: Wrong webcam feed on GMMI
Hi @Polcmods, thanks for your message. What you’re seeing is actually expected behavior — the webcam preview in the station detail is not tied directly to that specific METAR station, but shows the nearest available webcams in the area. So in the case of GMMI (Sidi Kaouki), the app displays the closest webcam, which happens to be from Essaouira bay. The same applies to the duplicate station as well. KR, Marketa

RE: How long do I need to wait for webcam approval?
Hi Michael, @Malexx79, thanks for your patience. Webcam approvals on Windy are handled manually by our administrators, so each submission goes through a review process. While it usually takes up to two business days, when a larger number of newly submitted webcams accumulates, the approval time can be longer. I’ve now reviewed and approved your webcam. You can find it here: https://www.windy.com/webcams/1793904059
It should appear on the map within the next few hours, and you should also receive a confirmation email shortly. KR, Marketa

RE: Webcam unapproved?
Hi, @rikyunreal, thank you for reaching out. I checked your webcam and updated the image URL. I was able to download the image successfully using the new link and have now activated the webcam. It should appear on Windy within the next few hours. Kind regards, Marketa

RE: How can I delete my webcams?
Hello @evrytaniaweather, At the moment, it is not possible to delete inactive webcams yourself. We launched the webcam administration for users only recently and are currently collecting feedback. The option to hide or delete webcams is definitely one of the most frequently requested features. We will evaluate all suggestions at the end of this month and then work on further improvements. Thank you for your patience. KR, Marketa

RE: CYOO doesn’t show airport cameras anymore
Hello @Herbalist, @tom-bednarchuk-tomboalogo, thank you for reporting this and for providing the updated links. We have checked this on our side and can confirm that the Nav Canada webcams currently available on Windy are not working. We are currently working on a large project related to our webcams, so unfortunately, we will not be able to address the Nav Canada cameras before next month. Thank you for your patience and for bringing this to our attention. KR, Marketa

RE: Webcam unapproved?
Hello @jwauchope , thank you for your patience. We currently have a large number of newly submitted webcams waiting for review, so the approval process is taking a little longer than usual. I have just reviewed your webcam and approved it. There is no need to submit it again. It should appear on the Windy map within the next few hours at the following link: https://www.windy.com/webcams/1793911537. KR, Marketa

RE: Add new Webcam: snapshot or stream?
Hello @Dominique-Mikes, RTSP streams are not ideal for our downloader, as they can occasionally cause compatibility issues. If your camera can provide both an RTSP stream and a JPG snapshot, please use the JPG URL for the webcam submission. KR, Marketa

RE: Webcam stop working on Windy
Hello @katherinejames, thank you for letting us know. We investigated the issue and found that the same webcam had actually been added to Windy twice. As a result, instead of displaying the webcam you linked, Windy was showing the duplicate entry instead. I've now merged both entries into a single webcam, and the change should propagate across Windy within the next few hours. Thank you for your patience. Kind regards, Marketa

RE: Premium subscriptim not recognized
Hello @Movia, Unfortunately, we can't manually link or activate Google Play subscriptions. Did you have a chance to try the steps from my previous reply? The most important part is to sign in using the Sign in with Google button, making sure you select the same Google account that was used to purchase the subscription. After that, please open the Premium window and tap Restore Purchases. If you've already done exactly that and it still doesn't work, please let us know at which step it fails, so we can investigate further. KR, Marketa
