      Widgets should just update based on last location and not go blank if location is off. No idea why they go blank, just update based on last location.

        @Jostian Hi, if you want to see one specific location without widget using your device location, I would recommend setting the location manually in the widget settings.

            @Suty When I open the app it updates and shows location and weather but even after that the widgets remain blank saying it cannot load the location, even though location is on, battery is on unrestricted etc and location access is on all the time. I've cleared cache, restarted etc but still blank, like the widget is not updating from the app.

                  @Jostian Okay and can you share the setting of the widget and resulting widget?

                    @Suty I've set it to 3hrs, transparent and it's set to use last location in settings, but that doesn't work, cos when I enable location and get the location (Cape town) and then turn off location the next refresh is blank, so it's not using the last location setting to get weather info and the widget just says unable to get location...
