Just started using Windy yesterday, and paid for premium because I like the hourly forecasts and the widgets.

But now I realized that I’m also getting consistently wrong locations with iOS, too. Version 42.5.5 according to the sidebar in-app, but version 42.050589 according to the App Store version history.

Initially, it finds my correct location straight away, when I load the app, and loads the map overview. But then, when I long press the home icon to load the local forecast, it always switches to some other location several hundred miles away and loads the forecast for that (also moving the map) instead.

This doesn’t happen on the same iOS device on the web version in Safari. In that case it works correctly.

This makes the app pretty unusable for location-based forecasts.

Error console in the app shows nothing.

Help! Thanks.

@arduous yes, that’s exactly the issue. Thanks for doing the screen record.

@Suty thanks. Just replying from my side. Not using any VPN. It works fine in the browser on the same device, just not in the app.
