      @korina Oh alright then. No, no VPN. And yes, all permissions are given to the app.

      Have you tried to set your home location as favorite and then use it as start up location?

      @trashify Hello, did you try to set a certain location in your widget? If you have some saved favorites, you can set one of them as default location.

      Same issue here. I have to manually update the widget, otherwise it can't get the current location. This just started in the past few days.

      Hello, I am using desktop windy windows 10 with paid Windy subscription and I am having the same issue. GPS is wrong appr. 5 miles out, IP is way off several counties away and there is no way that I can find to actually put in my address or lat/long coordinates. This would be a huge improvement to this service. Especially with Dark Sky being sucked up by Apple. You may get more subscribers that way. Is this in the works, am I missing the boat or its not an option.
      Thank you
      Lisa

      Hello @XaviorvorteX,

      you can choose how your location will be determined, there are 3 options:

      by IP address by GPS by custom location

      Which of these did you try?

      The frequent zooming out is by far the most annoying feature of Windy. Is there any way to get a setting to turn this off?
