Stop asking me to turn on location accuracy
-
Every time I open the app, I'm prompted to turn on "Location Accuracy", which uses some Google something to "improve" the location service.
I have already enabled Precise GPS access for Windy, which localizes my position within a few meters. There's no need to involve Google in this, and even less of a need to ask me again every single time I open the app. It doesn't seem like much, but this is the most annoying thing about this app for me.

@benwb Hello, please update our app on your device to get this fixed. Our colleagues fixed this issue on our end.

@Suty Same thing happening nowadays, apr 1, 2026, when trying to set alarms; it requires Google's location "accuracy". Please remove this absurdity from Windy. It alters the steady GPS accuracy, introducing a lot of noise, i.e. in recorded tracks. It's only for Google's benefit, not for us.

@Ivaneck We use Google services in our app, so this is necessary to get this working.
