      @junkitt OK, so I opeened ONE of the three files that I had compressed ad counted the number of screen pages I would have to take pictures of... there would need to be 16 screen shots of text. I don't think anyone would want to page through about 50 pages of this:

        @junkitt first one errored out because it was "too large" 1.4 mb as a png.

            @junkitt Hi, could you rather upload a screenshot of your widget, what does it say/show?

                Question: When I am logged in and look at my Windy app preferences, on the bottom of the side bar, I see "Your settings are saved to the cloud." Please tell me that this is being saved somewhere on your cloud.

                Personally, I do not use my cloud for anything. If Windy is looking on my 5xs of cloud's storage and not finding it, shouldn't there be some sort of error in the Error Console? Because, this is all I see: "Sweet, no errors reported :-)"
                even though I have 3 crash reports for Windy today.

                Can someone put me on the right track, please?

                  @junkitt When we say that your settings are saved to the cloud, we mean our cloud. So this should not be the reason.

                    @Korina This morning tne widget crashed at 8:37a EDT. I was working on one of the many daily puzzles at the time and didn't know it crashed until I went into Today to open something else via my launcher widget and saw the "unable to load" message. I tried removing the widget then adding it again, but tne result is the same.

                    You should also know that other than right after the re-re-re-install, when I changed the metric setting to English, I did not touch the app. I did, however, use one of my browsers (firefox or savari) to look at Windy.com.

                    So now you have some idea how long it takes before it crashes.

                    I have all those wonderful widget crash reports that I have no way to get to you, should someone be willing to look at them. But until I can tet the widget to work for longer than a week, I'm not going to be able to justify sending youany money.

                    .

                      I miss the widget so much. It’s not working for me for a looong time. Looks the same as others describe – unable to load.

                      The thing is, I’m an iOS developer, so maybe I can help with it?

                          I am so sorry it has taken me so long to get back here to further comment, however, the widget has not had so much as a hiccup since my last install in May. I do want to thank everybody who tried to help me. And I still love Windy and I still miss having a radar widget, so if someone finds an app that has a radar widget for iOS, please pass the information my way. Please.

                          And again, thank you, all.

                            Hi,
                            I'm using Android 10 on a One Plus 5T. I configured the widget as 4x1.
                            When there is rain forecasted, the widget partly hides the temperature.
                            At some point I thought this issue was fixed, but it appeared again, so I guess it's not.
                            Let me know if you need anything else =)

                              @ronwnzl Hello, thank you for your report.
                              We are about to release a new app version, where the widget issues should be fixed.

                                @ronwnzl Hi Ron,
                                I am sorry to say that because we are using devices with different operating systems, your report cannot help me. I can only hope and pray that the good folks at Windy will add the radar widget to the iOS app and then I will praise then up one side and down the other... I might even subscribe. But Korina didn't sound like a radar widget was part of the plan. But I keep hoping...

                                  @Korina Is the update for just the android side of life or will it also update iOS as well, and by any chance, might it also include a radar widget for iOS??

                                    @junkitt Hello, update will be for both platforms. Radar widget is not available for iOS.

                                      @Korina Will the iOS widget problems also be fixed in the newest update? Thank you.

                                          Thank you for the new version of Windy. I was hoping that the widget not reloading was fixed, but sadly, it is not.
