yes, give this app access to your GPS and let it ping it to google every minute
If you have a Pixel phone, I think your weather app tracking you is the least of your worries at this point
How else do you think weather apps work?
Choose the location manually? Control the interval of the “ping”?
Yeah, but the general smartphone user is gonna want the weather where they are right now. And that means the phone needs location data and pings a server somewhere often enough to get “real-time” weather updates.
I’m a tinkerer at heart but when I put a weather widget on my home screen, I want it updated automatically. I don’t want to have to manually refresh it every time I want up to date weather at that moment, especially on my watch.
As soon as you can choose, fine.
If you can add “current location” which is dynamic, or specific cities, it’s fine for me.
My real default weather app is a self hosted web app that scrapes government websites
Now, those of us who don’t have a Fold or the tablet have to wait and see when Google plans to bring it to other Pixel devices in the future. Also, I hope that frog is still there!
I hope it comes to the pixel phones soon. Though I enjoy wunderground it would be nice if that weather widget was more helpful.
I just want my weather widget to not disappear randomly from the always on display and the home screen when I actually need to check the weather.
That’s all I’m asking. How is this still a bug years later?
What’s the package name for the app?
Ok, but can we please have the ability to remove the current widget since it’s pretty much useless? Same for the search bar that I only use when I tap it by mistake?
Use a different launcher
Sure I can do that in the meantime, doesn’t mean it’s not something Google should allow (especially the date/weather widget)
They won’t.
If enough people complained about it by sending a feedback message they might.
