      @Korina Android Z Flip 4; Satellite radar widget is 100% opaque while transparency box checked. Reinstalled, all perms turned on, background settings on. What am I doing wrong please? Temperature widget is transparent, unlike the radar.

        @Korina I am using Version: 38.0.0 on a Sony device with Android 12 and experience the following: it's currently not possible to use transparency with the radar widget as the opaque slider is not movable with the "transparent" selection active. Same issue on another device (Huawei Tablet with Android 9). How can I get transparency back on my radar widget? Thx for the great App otherwise!

          @pg-schultz @philipp-altherr Hi, the transparency mode for radar, satellite and webcams has been disabled in the latest update. But, we will add it back with future app release.

              @Roman-Pertzian-2 Hi, about which widget do you talk exactly? Also, which device, version of SW and Windy do you have?

                Iam talking about first two widgets. I did not try others. And latest app update with UI changes.
                Android 9

                Now I see that widget changed to white, so it's ok. But it changed cca 1 hour later after widget was created.

                  @Tjasian said in Widget problems:

                  I am having the same problem as akovia. Android 12, latest update to both os and app. Widget will not auto update. Widget will update if pushed manually.

                  I have reinstalled the app and widget but this did not fix it. Setting the location manually also did not fix it.

                  Me ocurre exactamente igual. No entiendo que en una aplicación de pago ocurra esto.

                    Sorta Same. Except Windy is Constantly updating & cannot "clear". All settings are on, unrestricted all permissions. Firefox 115.

                      Widget not updating automatically, opening 3-dot menu kind of luck, but when you manage to do so and update manually, it looks like this:

                      Android 13 on Pixel 6, Android 11 on Galaxy Tab - both show same behaviour.

                        I'm having an issue with the widget as well, it shows the same temperature so the time and doesn't refresh, also some days are missing completely
                        Screenshot_20230807-095812.png
                        When trying to refresh, nothing changes.
                        I've cleared cache, checked permissions, reinstalled the app. I've reinstalled the widget several times.
                        I'm running a pixel 6pro so it's stock Android, leads me to believe the issue is on your end. But please let me know if anything else can be done.

                          @Brandon-Cislak Yes, we are planning to release the fix for this issue with updating widgets. It should be out in a few days.

                            @pg-schultz if this isn't fixed soon I'll have to roam.

                              @pg-schultz Do you have issues with updates? Can you please download the latest version 39.1.5 and let us know about the result?

                                1. As others have mentioned the radar widget does not update despite ensuring all the settings are correct.

                                2. New topic (I think) :
                                  The widget that shows the model output allows you to select a particular model--that works. But when you tap the widget for the app to display, the model selected in the widget is not the one displayed. I have GFS as the model in the widget, and when you tap the widget, ECMWF comes up. Whatever model is selected in the widget should be the one shown after you tap on the widget.

                                3. On related topic, the ability to select a default model (using start up layer) no longer works. Please add the capability to select a default model as part of the settings. Thanks

                                  I have a different widget problem to those I've seen above.
                                  On both my Android phone (Sony XZ2 Android 9) and tablet (Lenovo Tab 4 Android 8.1.0) I have a permanent notification from Windy "Updating widget".
                                  But I don't have a widget and I cannot add a Windy widget to either and I can't get rid of the notification.
                                  I use Nova launcher on both devices and wonder if there is a mismatch between this and Windy.
                                  Any suggestions would be very welcome!

                                    Hi,

                                    I have an issue when the 3 dots on top sometimes dont show the refresh and settings button properly, instead it immediately disappears. I made a video capture -

                                      @Tomas-Navara May I ask which version of Windy you have? You can find this info at the bottom of the menu.

                                        The Windy Detail Forecast widget is stuck on "cannot load your location".

                                        I've checked all the location/battery permissions, deleted the widget, uninstalled the app, and still no joy.

                                          Hi.

                                          I am a new (premium) user on a iPhone 15 / iPad Air 4 with latest iOS / iPadOS and Windy version.

                                          Is it a normal behaviour that there is no entry for Windy when I try to add a widget to the iPhone / iPad lock screen? I can only select a Windy widget by selecting the entry „Vorschläge“ (german, maybe „suggestions“ in english?).

                                            @hotrs Hi, Windy offers various widgets in its own section, not only some of them in suggested ones.
