Updating widget notification remains all the time
-
@Hovis-Biddle Can you tell us about the version of Windy? Could you please reset the widget after the last update (remove and add them back again)?
-
@Ondřej-Šutera same issues here.
Windy 39.1.4
Android 13 One UI5.1Removed reinstalled...
-
@Ondřej-Šutera I have the same issue on 2 Android Smartphones.
Both phones using the same Windy and Android version:Windy 39.1.4 Built: 2023-07-13 14:12
Android 13 UI 5.1When I removed and added the widget again, it is always black and shows no informations.
-
@Zett32 could you please update the Windy to the latest build? We released the latest build on 2023-07-21
-
@Ondřej-Šutera
39.1.4 here and issues persist :(
Updated 2023-07-21 -
Latest update (39.1.4) resolved it for me.
-
Can you all please check this post here? We are still working on solution, however we still need a hand from users in this matter.
-
@Ondřej-Šutera you need to add a step of clearing cash and all data before uninstalling.
That's what solved it for me.
-
@Ondřej-Šutera well that worked almost an hour, perpetual updating notification is back on.
The other difference I see is stacked radar and satelite animated widgets are working where before they would get stuck and had to be manually refreshed, if any of this info means anything to you.
Again,
Version 39.1.4
Built 2023-07-21
Android 13 One UI 5.1 on SM-A526W -
@Ondřej-Šutera shortly after animations on both widgets got stuck as well :(
-
@MilkoOk Okay, so now the widgets are still stuck even after all reset and reinstallations?
-
@Ondřej-Šutera 2023-07-28 didn't do a thing for me. Still perpetually stuck on "Updating widget" notification and animations just stop after some time. They have to be manually refreshed at least two times before they would start working again.

@MilkoOk Did you re-add your widgets after the update? ,
-
@Ondřej-Šutera yeah
-
@MilkoOk Can you please share the screenshots of your widgets to see how it looks like now?
-
@Ondřej-Šutera of course :)
-
@MilkoOk I am sorry but what exactly is wrong with these widgets?
-
@Ondřej-Šutera my understanding, and expectation, is that widgets auto refresh on hourly basis.
They're not doing that.
Aside from having a perpetual "Updating widget" notification that never goes away, widget animations will cycle few times than stop at random point in their sequence. They will never restart on their own and I have to manually refresh them multiple times before they will update animations, cycle them few times, randomly stop again so I'm back to manually refreshing... -
@MilkoOk But playing animation and the refresh of widgets are two different things. Widget should be automatically updated on, in general, hourly basis without playing any animation. If you want to play an animation, you can click on play button and stop this animation anytime by clicking on the pause button. Please let me know, if I understand this wrong but it looks like you mixed these two things.
-
@Ondřej-Šutera what is a point of a widget?
I'm giving unrestricted access to battery consumption, precise location and notifications just so I can have a widget that's refreshing information on hourly basis but not showing it unless I physically make almost as many clicks as it would take going through parent app???
Man this used to be simple, functional and visually pleasing.
