Thank you for your patience. In the meantime I checked the setting "north up" in the desktop app and it works fine for me. Solved :-)
As soon as the mobile app will feature north up as a default or will allow selection (more option) I am completely happy.
Thanks again for your continuing support. Brilliant app, by the way!

Agree - I would like to have the altitude slider back on the first page. Desperately needed for wind and icing layers.

@idefix37
Thank you for the explanation. Actually, I had read this before but I cannot use this setting for VFR or IFR route planning purposes.
This sort of "reference" might probably be important for sailors, which I am not.
Could you please make a poll to evaluate how many pilot users would appreciate north reference wind barbs, independent of own speed and track. Or even provide this setting as an option.
By the way, even when planning a northbound trip with zero speed (or 1 kt) in westerly winds, the barb dirction seems odd???
Please, I know that I am not alone.

@idefix37
Please, explain the setting that shows barbs representing wind from the west when the wind is coming from the west.

Same with VFR or IFR planning - wind direction is completely off!
See example trip. WInd trails show westerly winds in 3000 ft, which represents current weather. Planning strip shows wind from the south??? I am a real fan and premium user of the windy app but this appears to be nonsense!

I tried to adapt to the new logic of use and partly, I managed. However, there is two things that confuse me:

1. why is the location picker located in the upper quarter of the screen and not in the middle?
2. the route weather was a feature on my wish list. Thank you so much. However, it seems to display wind direction incorrecly. I was planning a trip with most westerly winds in 3000ft, but the route weather stip shows wind from the south?

Please fix it, give us some time to adapt to the new logic, and it will be great!

@Korina Thank you, Korina, couldn't that be a businesscase for you?
Alternatively, do I need to get the API? However, it surely is worth the money but in the end too expensive for my little experiment

I would be interested in receiving a daily eMail containing tabular weather observation data, such as

• solar radiation (hourly)
• temperature (hourly)
• wind vector (hourly)
• precipitaion (daily)

for a set of geo locations (coordinates) and would be willing to pay a fair amount of money per month.
Developers out there or maybe windy team, would you be interested in offering something?
