Good app room for improvement

Great app.
Have my devices updating every 3 mins and sometimes have to close the app and open it as the app seems to hang if used to frequently.

What i would like on my wish list.

I currently receieve email alerts and am swamped by them.

Norification pop ups.
Alerts based on rate of change , if dropping or rising too quick.
Rate of notifications after first email sent
Pause alerts function for next 30 mins or hour or so.

Awesome

I have this app installed on my iPhone, iPad, and M1 MacBook Air. It just works flawlessly. Even though it it's "not verified for macos," it works best on my MacBook Air. The detail and record keeping is impressive.

Stopped

The app is no longer working and can’t even reinstall. Needs more work folks.

Update
They now seem to have everything functioning as it should. Ecowitt has now introduced a camera. I ordered it yesterday!

Latest release is buggy

All graphs on iPhone, automatically rotate to landscape view when you open them, really annoying. Dew point reads constantly with 0 value. Not very impressed so far - just 8 months into owning this.

From 5 start to 1 star this version

This latest update “moved my cheese” in two very bad ways that basically blew up the usefulness of the graphs.

- Always forcing landscape when opening a graph (even when screen is locked in portrait)

- Graphs switch’s from last full day or full week (I.e. 24 hours or 7*24 hours) to calendar days (last 1 calendar day starting at midnight or last 7 calendar days). Now you can no longer see what was going on this time yesterday (was it hotter, colder, the same at same time of day?).

Please undo these changes or allow user to choose which view they would like. Give people the option but don’t strip functionality!

Daily rainfall

Recorded rainfall is from 12 midnight to 12 midnight but the accepted recording time period is from 9am to 9am. Also the had a power failure during a rain event , there is no record of the that rainfall event and no annual progressive rainfall total.

Best layout, better than the rest.

Thought about using WU, but Ecowitt is much better.

Needs Landscape View on iPad

App desperately needs to support landscape on iPads.

Requires precise location “to configure wifi”

To whoever wrote this app, i am returning my ecowitt devices because you unethically require precise location data to even configure a gateway.
