  Hi there.

  I'm having the same loading issue, doesn't work after the first set up.

  Some suggestions I'd love to see...

  if the widget is taking up 4x2 then maybe use that space? Instead of dead space above and below, make the icons and text a big bigger it would be great if I could scroll on the widget. It would be nice to see the weekend's weather forecast instead of needing to open the app for that. settings... I'd like the option to set the wind to kmph instead of knots

  Android 8.0

  Thank you for an amazing app

  Dear @sandybig , we will not be able to change it because you are most probably referring to another "Windy app": https://community.windy.com/topic/3756/warning-russian-windy-app-uses-our-name-and-want-you-to-pay-for-nothing Our very own Windy is completely free of charge, no paying for our service, no "pro versions", no "pro features", no adds.

  Dear @Rajat-99099 , Google & some other huge corporations show different maps to different audiences (opposite sides of the dispute). That's why. :-)

  Make sure to check the links that @Gkikas-LGPZ posted above. Thank you.

  e.g. for Bern, Switzerland

  I would appreciate the useful UV Index too, essential in cool or cloudy conditions ;)

  For the time being I recommend this study https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27664761 as a benchmark.

  If you change units to in. Hg you'll have "precision" of 1/100 of an inch.

  In my opinion calibrating a barometer with pressure readings from forecast models
  is not a good practice.
  Even for the same location, pressure from two models may vary a lot!
  Which one will you take as correct?

  The standard procedure is to calibrate it with measurments from a nearby official
  meteorological station (e.g. airport) because they use high precision barometers
  which calibrate at regular intervals.
