so far only classic colouring is available. I could add another drop down menu above each plot frame to switch between "classic" and "fixed" colouring. Maybe in a later release.

I always only use classic colouring though.

The google play store search is a bit clumsy. best try the link to find the app. I tried adding more keywords. If you search by my name you should find it.

On my Pixel 2 with Android 9 I don't see the maps. I get the list of 6 drop down selections (to 4 maps), but no maps. Am I missing something obvious?

Very Nice!!

A couple of suggestions for improvements:
- Setting to change the number of frames. I would personally like 8 instead of 4.
- A setting to change the forecast model. I like looking at the NAM a couple of days in advance.

Thanks again!

It displays the same as the standard Dr Jack website defaults. Eastern US shows 18Z and western US shows 21Z. Could add another switch for changing between 18Z and 21Z.
