For the last 3 or 4 days, Breezy Weather has not been working properly and it no longer shows me current weather. Changing the data source didn't help and unfortunately a reinstallation didn't help either. Does anyone else have this problem? :(

AccuWeather seems to work fine as a provider, but OpenWeather is totally broken for me.

I just tried it and AccuWeather actually works. Hopefully the other sources will work again soon. Thank you for the tip.

They just launched a new version a couple of days ago in which they rewrote a lot of the updating code. For now, it appears that only AccuWeather is working for your current location, though curiously other providers still work on different cities.

Last time I checked there was no issue for this yet, so you might want to consider creating one.

Papjul and contributers are working hard on this fork so please be gentle. 🙂 BreezyWheather is still beta software, so things breaking every now and again should be expected.

I'm not mad and it's perfectly fine if things get difficult. Just wanted to ask if anyone else has the problem or if it is already known. :D

Geometric weather is working fine

I know but the app has not received an update for 13 months :(

That doesnt mean theres anything wrong with it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I did not claim that either. I just find it more pleasant when I know that an app is still being worked on and receives regular updates.

I like when an app works and doesnt need updates 😅

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I can understand that, but it gives me a sense of security when the app I'm using receives regular updates and I don't have to worry that the app will soon need to be replaced because it no longer receives support. :(

Until the app breaks because it receives no updates :P

I've been looking for an open-source weather app for a while. This one is great ! Works fine for me, only missing thing is the precipitation chance percentage (only the mm amount is shown).
