Not real time

I find it inaccurate in real time. I paid for the landing pattern and most of its wind direction is inaccurate in real time. Looking at the wind socks at my DZ the wind is from NNE yet in the app it indicates SE. Waste of money.

DZ still can’t be saved

Reported the issues and even paid for their different services. However, I can’t even save any DZ or edit anything in it. I don’t understand why this issue have not been settled till today.
