          @carsten-walter @WillanZar Hello, I would recommend to remove the widget, then restart your phone and place widget again.

            That does not change anything, I have already done that.
            The widget does not refresh by itself, I upgraded from Android 11 to 12, that's reason for the problem, the widget works flawless on an other device with an older version of Android.

              @carsten-walter Did you restart the phone? Please also check that you have allowed Windy to use GPS while using the app.

                Hello,
                I have done that all. Windy has the permission to use GPS.
                In the settings there is no possibility to allow windy to use always GPS, that might be the problem, it is only working when you hit the refresh button manually.

                      Hello, no, I didn't.
                      The widget does not update on two devices with Android 12.

                        @carsten-walter @WillanZar Hello, Android has issues with updating widgets, which we cannot affect. However I can recommend you to try some of the solutions explained in this article - https://www.digitbin.com/widgets-not-updating-on-android-fix/
