        Have you set the Start-up location in Settings using the your home location.

        It is more efficient to set directly a location than using GPS or IP.

              @davinorm Hey, jumping in real quick, is it possible that there is an app update for the XR right now? When I updated my Windy app this morning, that's when it broke and set to Prague for me.
              I'm wondering if you didn't update your iPhone XR, so it's running as normal, but the iPhone 8 did get updated, and thus is broken like mine (and probably many other people's).

                @slimothy hi, thanks for that
                I noticed others have the same problem, so will keep reading this page and look for an update.
                Also getting ‘this sort of widget is not supported some times as well when you first select it on the iphone 8!!!!

                Again Thankyou

                  @davinorm Super strange! Check your App Store on both phones and see if the one that works has an update. If it does, don't update! Haha. I think today's update breaks the widgets :/ I spent over an hour today trying to fix mine before I said F it and checked the forum. Should have checked here first.

                  Hoping for an official dev response!

                      @davinorm said in Widget Location Error:

                      Of course it’s me who has written ‘ Home location’ in my screenshot ( Home location is with purple letters). You will not find it in your phone !
                      I just mean that you have to set your location as Favorite then you will find this favorite in Start up location settings. Finally you need to select it.

                        Installing the new widget I experienced the same issue as you. It locates me in Prague and updating the Start up location in Settings does not change anything, sorry.
