Radar Views and Slow motion
Radar sets every layer in one tap with Views, replays any half hour in Slow motion, and slides storms between frames. City Packs lead Theme & Visual Style, and Pollen Count, Air Quality and Sunrise & Sunset are redrawn.
Radar is most of this release. Pick a View (Storm, Rain & Flood, Winter, Tropical, Travel or Clean) and the map layer and every overlay are set at once. Change any switch and the View becomes Custom, which you can save as your own.
Pause on a moment and Slow motion replays the half hour around it slowly, past scans or forecast, so you can step through a storm frame by frame instead of watching it flash past in the loop. Between frames, storms now slide along their motion rather than fading from one frame into the next, so cells stay solid mid-step. Where the radar has them, two-minute scans fill Slow motion and the newest frames, and a switch in Radar settings turns them off.
Away from the radar, City Packs move to the top of Theme & Visual Style, and Pollen Count, Air Quality and Sunrise & Sunset are redrawn.
