Ratings and reviews

Windy was my go-to weather app for paramotor / glider sports until the most recent UI update. Maybe I'm dense, but I can't get it to do what I want. For no reason, I get daily weather notifications for a random spot in the Arctic Ocean, even though I've never favorited anything in that area (by several thousand miles). The app always opens to a much more zoomed out extent than makes sense (seeing, for instance, several U.S. states). It's been a few weeks, and I have to say the new UI is a bust.

The new update was a step in the wrong direction. The widget is hard to refresh data and won't start at all after rebooting my phone. I don't know how this version of the app passed usability testing. The new "picker" covers 90% of the screen (OnePlus 8) but doesn't go away after choosing the view you want. You have to close it manually. And it is harder now (more taps) to get to the view you want. Now, tap on the map. A bar appears at the top. Swipe the bar left. Gone. Usability FAIL overall.

The recent update was a step back in terms of usability. Widgets are harder to refresh or just don't work. The map is harder to navigate and is just annoying when you try to select a location. Not sure what the devs were thinking when they rolled this one out. Hopefully they roll things back, otherwise I'm cancelling my subscription.
