Station Widget is not working on Android
-
I am using an Android phone and have installed the Windy Station Widget (Weather Station Widget) on my home screen.The widget worked normally throughout last month. However, starting this month, it has stopped working and always displays the error message:
“Failed to load data.”
The Windy app itself works normally, and all other Windy widgets on my phone are also working without any problems. Only the Station Widget is affected.
I connect to the internet through a proxy service. I have tested the Station Widget under several different network configurations:
- Using the proxy normally
- Using the proxy in global mode
- Completely disabling the proxy
However, in all cases, the Station Widget still displays “Failed to load data” and does not work.

@bandao-Joey Hi. Thanks for the report. Are you using a favorite weather station in the widget, or is it set to use your current location and the nearest station?
-
@MarkNagy I’ve tried both, but neither works.

@MarkNagy There has been another change today. I found that after enabling location on my phone and setting the widget to automatically use the nearest weather station, it successfully displays the temperature.
However, if I select Favorites, it shows “No favorites yet” and does not work.
For now, since the nearest weather station option is working and displaying the temperature, I consider the issue resolved.

@bandao-Joey Hi. You have to save some stations in the main app. These will appeear in the widget menu.
