Which weather data provider?

Post by Rak »

Hi, I'm using your newest android app in europe.

I read about weather data provider in your help section:
- Current data is provided by METAR
- Forecast data is provides by yr.no (NRK)

But when I open the app, there is written (in german): "Weather forecast by OWM"

Confusing. What is right, what is wrong?

Thx.

Why not offering both OWM and yr.no - and let the user choose in options?

Ok, thx.

Just thought, it would be easy unless you have already implemented OWM. :)

I do not like OVM, because forecast is inaccurate. Please Pavel, write to us, since time will work yr.no again. Another apps which using yr.no, working fine, why your not?
I buyed full version because your offer was "yr.no" and now some OVM :(
