Thats just straight-forward what users expect to appreciate most, doesn't it?

However, I hope there is a plan to implement these in 2025.

For forecast I’m switching between them, depending on my location.
I’m sure Australia, Japan, US can benefit from their own regional models. I see no reason why any model that can display a forecast for a location would be missing from the widget option.
Today is a great example.
I’m in the mountains, between 1200 and 1700 meters. Hiking. Alone.
ECMWF shows heavy snow starting at 14:00. ICON shows moderate snow at 12:00 and heavy after 15:00
Only the detailed Aladin and MBlue show heavy snow starting at 11:00, as they make difference between 1700 meters and the plain below. Guess when the heavy snow started.
So do you think the difference matters? Three hours of heavy snow? I head out looking at the wrong forecast (like what the widget was showing), in this case later than I should’ve, it would’ve been quite worse experience than the pleasant hike I got.

P.S. and don’t forget the watch app and complications. Same issue with the three inadequate global models there.

Or what exactly is wrong on your end?

I got 44.01.0213, released the other day, and there is no difference in the widgets.
Again available are just the completely useless ECMWF and GFS and the almost completely useless ICON…

I have installed the testing version, which should be released in a few days and there is already ALADIN model. So please be patient, we will release that model for widgets in a few days.

You can find that info at the bottom of the app menu.

When can we expect Aladin?

However, local models in widgets are offered only in Android devices.

Regarding other models in Android widgets, they are all available in the app around the World, however, if you use only central Europe, it is possible that you have never seen them in the app.

Yes, please add the Aladin model in the widgets. It's quite confusing to see a list of 12 models in the widget settings, which are also different to what I can see when I open the Android app and also the web interface at my current location. On the web and Android app I can see the same 5 models (GFS, ECMWF, METEOBLUE, ICON-EU, ALADIN). In the widget settings are ECMWF, GFS, ICON, ICON-EU, ICON-D2, Arome, Meteoblue, NAM, NEMS, HRRR, ACCESS, UKV. What are all these other models? Why can I see them in the widget settings but not in the web and Android app? And why is ALADIN missing in the widget?
