New interface, June 2026
-
I like the old design as it was much easier to quickly glance at the 1hr or 3hr forecast to see when the rain was coming and how much. The probability and amount of precipitation has their own column and centered font alignment. More columns make it visually easier to comprehend and assess data.
With the new design the wind is now in this column, and it's the first one your eyes will see, good if you are into kitesurfing, but for everyone else that is interested if its gonna rain, it will create a visual block as your skim over the numbers.
Scan for the rain and amount in the new vs classic look and tell me if you agree or not
Perhaps this issue can be fixed by at least changing the order from top to bottom: Percent Precipitation, Amount in Millimeters, Wind. Centered Alignment.

Hello! I don't like the new interface, but I guess I can get used to it. However, the wind gusts disappeared and they are a must to know, as a paragliding pilot. Bring the gusts back, please!
PS: I'm sure I'm speaking in the name of all the free flight community. Gliders, paragliders, sailplanes, etc. Maybe hundreds of thousands of users. It's essential information for us.

Another idea, add a toggle to revert back to old interface, but make it a popup on startup that shows an example of both UI and let users decided. Then collect analytics for which view is more popular and can discontinue the unpopular one sometime in the future if its too much work to maintain two views.

The meteoblue team made clear they have little interest in what customers like or not. Despite the drop on the app notation in the past days. So do not expect any change or even options. They know what's better, whatever color coding for data visualisation studies say for years. Let's hope the team in charge of models is more into science.

I loved the meteoblue app, am subscriber and use android pixel 7 pro and desktop/web, probably not for long. The recent UI updates are really bad. Obviously you didn't test this with users as I'm seeing some online complaints about this, including in this forum. I never complain about apps like this but this is one of my very favorite apps. You are good at weather, but now its clear you don't know how to do a major UI update. You should have done a mass notification to your paid users (me!!) and let them see the new UI. Here are my direct dislikes: terrible blue background. You did have a clean darker background and now my screen is all lit up bright, thanks. The view of a day the column 2nd from the right the wind and rain, its so crowded you can't tell which hour you are looking at as there is no separation between each hour. Now you have all this extra stuff below the forecast on the main page of the app, webcams, really? Webcams are for trashy ad-heavy apps, just look at all of the terrible weather apps and lots and lots of them promote webcams. Why? There are few if any settings to change the ui, for example give us a way to turn down the brightness of the bright background on the main page! Also its significantly slower to load. Goto the meteograms page and it just waits and waits, and then after I'm bored I get to see the metograms. It reloads fast so that is ok, but seems like the first time it loads i get a blank screen and just have to wait I guess. Its not my internet, I'm on a super fast connection here. Also when transitioning back to the main page using the back arrow, its slow and I see the circle arrow spinning. Slow UI, not a good sign things are going well for you. There are at least 3 different ways to bring up radar/metograms/etc from the front page. Thats alot of good UI space used up with 3 different ways to launch 4 whole pages. Just not a good design and use of screen space if you ask me.

All feedback duly noted. Thank you! And please, add more!

I want to point out an error in the first page when I open this App with the latest interface. I attach a photo, but after "Parly cloudy" it continues "{,}."
At least, I think it's an error. I have seen similar elsewhere. But can't find it now.

Where are the satellite Images? Can't find them in the new ui
-
The new UI is dispersive and disorganic. A clerlar step back from what was a great and near perfect app.
Please give a chance to revert to the old interface. As Is now i don't want to use the app any more, because it's totally frustrating. -
Unfortunately, I find the new version much less practical than the previous one.
In the Forecast tab, it is now impossible to view today’s wind conditions. You can see the wind forecast for the next 5 days, but the current day’s wind information is no longer available. This was a very useful feature, especially for checking real-time conditions.
Also, the Meteogram is now displayed in German, and I cannot find any option to change the language back.
For me, this update feels like a significant regression in usability. It is a shame, because Meteoblue was one of the most useful weather tools available.
I hope these issues can be fixed in a future update, or that the previous functionality can be restored.

Météo Blue était ma référence surtout pour les vitesses du vent , désormais plus de vent maxi ???? Cette nouvelle présentation n'améliore en rien l'appli !! 🙃😡
@sylverfox exactement ! On voit le vent des jours suivant, mais pas celui du jour. Comment ont-ils pu passer à côté de ce détail énorme ???!! À croire qu'ils ont demandé à une ia de transformer leur app. Dommage.

Hi, I want to add some comments to this feedback:
-
Wind gust: We aligned the Android app to the iOS app, which shows wind gusts when the wind speed reaches a certain level, but not for low wind speed. We can easily bring the wind gust back for all conditions if that is a frequently requested feature.
-
Satellite images: Can be reached under maps -> Satellite. Once you selected the satellite map, the maps preview on the main screen will also show the satellite map. However, technically speaking it would also be easy to bring back a dedicated satellite map screen.
-
option to switch to the old design: I am sorry to say, but this will not happen. With the app redesign, we also changed the underlying framework for the whole UI, and it would technicly be very difficult to let both frameworks live together in the same app.

Thanks! Bringing back the gusts would be amazing.
The gust info is essential. Maybe for medium or big aviation it's not that important below some 50kph, but for small aviation 15 gusting 30 versus 15 gusting 40 is the difference between flyable and non-flyable, safe and not safe. Same in mountain areas for even lower wind speeds. 3 gusting 15 is acceptable, 3 gusting 28 may be too much for some pilots.
It tells us how turbulent the air will be, and also matters for an aircraft's top speed. If gusts exceed that speed, you find yourself flying backwards temporarily. Not fun.
Thanks again for considering bringing them back! -

We need the gusts back.✈️🌥️

What I liked about the old probability bar was that it exploited pre-attentive processing. Before you'd consciously read anything, you'd already registered lots of green = good, yellow creeping in = becoming uncertain, and black/red = don't put too much faith in this forecast. That all happened in a split second.
The new circles require a conscious step: How many rings are there? Which ones / how many are faded? Is four better than three? What does faded mean again? It's only a second or two, but multiplied by hundreds of glances over a year, it becomes noticeable. Visual management was perfect before
