Widget problems
-
@Landon-Cahow Can you provide a screenshot? What version of Android and Windy do you use?
-
@Landon-Cahow yes I also couldn't get my widget to use °F. I checked all my settings in the app and the website. I got it to work by clearing all user data and cache. I then uninstalled. I reinstalled and made sure I wasn't logged in. I used the app and set the units to °F and added the widget. I then logged in and everything was fine.
-
@Suty I am also having the same problem. All Temps are set to Fahrenheit and the widget is displaying Celsius.
Android version 13
Windy version 42.1.6 -
@mickm Hi, please try to remove widgets, then change units to celsius and back to Fahrenheit in the app. After that please try to add widgets back again.
-
@Suty Seems to have worked.
-
iOS widget only showing in celsius, no option to change to Fahrenheit
-
@Collin-Chow Did you try those steps, I mentioned above?

Bonjour
J'ai un soucis avec le widget de windy, économies d'énergie éteinte, pas d'optimisation de batterie.
widget est cassé, il charge uniquement la météo lorsque vous configurez le widget, mais après cela, le widget est vide et indique qu'il n'a pas réussi à récupérer les données, même s'il y a des données et une connexion Wi-Fi. J'ai effacé les données, mais le problème persiste, veuillez le résoudre !
Merci pour votre aide

I am experiencing an issue with the Premium version of Windy. The "Detail Forecast widget" turns blank after a short period. When I manually refresh it, I consistently encounter a "Failed to retrieve forecast" error.
Current Configuration:
- Using default widget settings, with only one modification: 1-hour interval.
- Location setting: "My Location".
Troubleshooting Steps Taken:
- Allowed Windy to run in the background.
- Excluded Windy from battery optimization.
- Enabled notifications even in Do Not Disturb mode.
- Granted location access with high-accuracy (GPS) enabled.
- Ensured a stable connection (always on Wi-Fi or mobile data).
Device Information:
- Phone Model: OPPO (ColorOS, latest version 13).
- Storage: Sufficient space available.
Windy 46.0.4 (19 Jun 2025).
Additional Notes:
- The issue persists consistently and only affects the Detail Forecast widget. Other features appear to function normally.
Could you please assist in resolving this issue? Let me know if further details are required.

@DICKY-IBROHIM Hi. Thanks for the detailed report. I was able to simulate this case. The issue was that the OS limits resources for the widget and it exceeded the memory limit. I have already implemented the fix, it will be available with the next update. Thanks for your patience.
-
@MarkNagy, Thanks. When will you perform the next application update? This week? Next month? In a few months?
-
@DICKY-IBROHIM Hi. As soon as possible. I will include some other fixes, but in two weeks the new version should be out.
-
@MarkNagy , After 14 days or 2 weeks, I checked on the Play Store, and it still shows the latest version as June 14, 2025. Any news?.
-
@DICKY-IBROHIM Hi. The update should be available. Can you please check again? Thank you.

My widget's temperature and precipitation graphs have suddenly become very blurry.
I'm using a Galaxy S24 Ultra with the latest update of Windy (as of 7/24/25)

Hello,
The resolution of the predicted rainfall got worse since one of the last updates.
I'm not Sure if this happen after an Android/ Samsung updates or windy updateSamsung S-22 (SM-901B/DS)

Hi. Thanks for the report. This is caused by memory limitations. We will try to optimise the widget's memory consumption.

Good day. My widget displays metric units, despite the app being set to imperial. After double-checking the app, I rebooted my tablet, but the issue persisted when I again tried to add the widget.

Hi Devalopers, love the widget idea but please allow me to have the zoom in further. Currently the closest zoom is so zoomed out it is almost useless as I live in a tropical area and only can rely on 64km radar range. This would make it way more detailed and helpful also if done efficiently it would likely clip the extent and allow for less demanding processinv as less data. Still love it

Different Android versions, Windy vesions in linked thread.
Weather Station Widget displays wind arrows in opposite direction (pointing the angle from where wind is blowing, not the direction):
IPhone equivalent Widget is displaying as expected.
