        @Jasonaf1 What exactly do you mean? Do you talk about alerts for certain location?

          @Suty like when I’m looking at radar on this app, it doesn’t show active warnings or watches. They were several tornado warnings the other day and they wasn’t popping up on this radar site.

            @Jasonaf1 No, there is no warning offered in the radar layer, but you can check layer Weather warnings to get further info.

                        @Korina the problem with my widgets, they keep switching to metric when I want imperial measurements. I've tried the steps listed but that don't seem to work

                          with the screen off, the phone is kept awake around 40% of the time, while the normal percentage used to be around 10-15%. I've tried cleaning cache and app data already.

                            My problem is the hourly and daily widgets, when applied to the home screen will be in metric when I would like imperial settings. I've tried reinstalling app, clearing cache and data. To no avail. My app is all imperial but never the widgets. I have an S24 ultra, it also happened on my S21 ultra. I am updated with Android and Windy.

                                I have an issue with widget location. It shows different location a couple of hundred kilometers of my location. When I open the widget the my location is correct but the weather shows still the wrong location. All the permissions are enabled so that has to be a bug. I'm on S24 Ultra.

                                    the radar app you're using may not be updating in real-time or may not be configured to display all weather alerts. Make sure you have the latest version of the app and check its settings to ensure alerts are enabled. You might also consider using a different weather app or website that specializes in real-time warnings for more accurate information.

                                      Hi @zoroxanime sounds like you’re having a persistent issue with the widgets not updating after restarting your Pixel 7 on Android 14. I know how frustrating that can be, especially when the issue seems to reoccur even after clearing cache and data. It might be related to recent updates or something specific to the Pixel’s interaction with the app. Hopefully, a future update will provide a more permanent fix. In the meantime, you could try re adding the widgets again after restarting to see if it makes any difference.

                                        I had the same issue with the Windy widget not updating. Here's what worked for me, I enabled notifications in the app settings, set location access to Allow all the time, and changed the battery usage to Unrestricted. After doing this, the widget started updating properly and hasn't had any issues since. Hopefully, this helps.

                                          I don't understand what's happening. I don't have a Battery menu in the settings. Is it because I'm on android 14? here are my settings. My widget always "can't load location"

                                            @serkef Unfortunately, Android 14 chose very confusing way how to allow the battery consumption. Please tap on the text, not the switch, of this option: 7a25166d-ad66-4b35-ad19-3800d1d170e6-image.png
