The app fails to update weather. How to fix it?

The most frequent reason why the app fails is the limitation of the built-in API key for OpenWeatherMap API. This key belongs to the free account of the developer and allows only 60 requests per minute. This is not enough to cover needs of all users. However, it's enough for a single user.

So, you need to take you own free OpenWeatherMap API key and ask the app to use it.

  1. Go to openweathermap.org, sign in and take the API key.
  2. Enter you API key into "API Key" setting on the main screen of the app.
  3. The weather is going to be updated successfully after some minutes.
