What is Weathergraph's Privacy Policy and Terms of use? #

Why pay for Dark Sky when some apps just let users enter their developer key? #

Dark Sky developer keys are not meant to be used to work around their pricing. Dark Sky is an awesome service, backed by a lot of work, and I believe the guys and girls running it deserve to be paid. That's why Weathergraph is properly using their paid API and paying for the use.
Thanks for considering. ~Tomas

What are your plans with Dark Sky service, which has been acquired by Apple? #

Dark Sky has promised their API will function until the end of 2021.
Meanwhile I have several candidates for a replacement service, and I am evaluating them in order to seamlessly switch the apps to a new forecast service.

How do I get my preferred units (like Fahrenheit) #

Weathergraph uses the units set on your watch in settings - here is how to change them.

How to add a custom location override on Garmin: #

In Weathergraph watchface settings, use the "Manual location override" field.

Please enter the location in lat,lon format, eg. 50.075539,14.437800. Or you can copy and paste coordinates from Google Maps in (lat, lon) format, like (50.0993027, 14.4477293).

You can find a latitude and longitude of a place on latlong.net (copy a "Lat Long" format from there).

My Garmin shows No location: #

Watchfaces can only get location shortly after a gps lock. Please lock the GPS (by starting the activity and waiting until the GPS turns green), then exit back to watchface, and wait for 5–10 minutes (watchfaces are only allowed to connect to internet once in a while).

I entered my PRO key, but the settings screen still shows "Weathergraph free", what is happening? #

The key is validated during the forecast request, so it seems that for some reason that didn't happen.

Do you see a small Bluetooth icon on top of the watchface?

If not, then the most common reason is that the watch loses connection with the phone.

Try:

  1. starting the Connect app on your phone again - it may have been killed by operating system
  2. restarting your watch — sometimes the wireless connection breaks and this is the only way to restore it
  3. restarting your phone — the wireless connection may also be broken by your phone

Then wait for 5–10 minutes, as watchfaces are only allowed to connect to internet once in a while (to save the battery).

If you see an error code on your watch (like -104), please have a look at the next question.

If you couldn't fix it this way, please e-mail me.

My Garmin cannot fetch or update forecast, and it shows an error code (like -104): #

Please check that the watch is connected to the phone (a Bluetooth icon show on top of the watchface) and that the phone is running the Connect app (sometimes it gets killed by phone to save memory). Then wait for 5–10 minutes (watchfaces are only allowed to connect to internet once in a while).

If you are interested, you can look up the error yourself in Garmin documentation.

Sometimes there's an error related to Bluetooth (BLE in a list above) – this might be fixed by restarting the watch and the phone (this affects all apps on the watch).

If you couldn't fix it, please e-mail me.

My location on Garmin is 'drifting' away from my real location, by 10 or 100s of km per day (mainly on Vivoactive 3), so the forecast is shown for completely different cities #

This is a known bug in GPS firmware that Garmin has not yet fixed - the GPS gets into a mode where it 'goes away' from a location of a last fix in a random direction and speed, sometimes 10 or 100s of kilometers per day.

I reported the problem to Garmin in their forum (VA3 + F5 FW bug - ActivityInfo.currentLocation drifts away 10s of km per day), in november 2018, but so far it hasn't been fixed. It would help if you would join in and ask Garmin to fix this.

Meanwhile, this can be worked around by getting a new GPS fix, or by adding an override location.

I have another question:
