Only 2 weather updates per day, so option to enter your own weather API key for more frequent updates. Choice of temp unit in settings - C or F. Please note that the weather is retrieved using your location, which is taken from your last activity. In order to get the weather you must first obtain a GPS lock by opening any activity that uses GPS such as walk or run (no need to start it, just wait for the GPS to show "Ready" then exit). After this, you will need to wait up to 15 minutes (the weather update frequency) to see the weather displayed properly on your watch. If you move to a different place, you will need to obtain a GPS lock again using the above steps. If you have any issues, PLEASE visit, and carefully read, my FAQ page first (https://www.bvdesigns.info/faq) and follow the advice and instructions given before using the "Contact Developer" link - most of the answers to your questions should be there. If contact is made first and the answer is already there, you will be referred back to the FAQ page. Your co-operation on this would be most greatly appreciated. https://www.bvdesigns.info/garmin **Note on colours: Due to the display technology, some of the Garmin system colours may look muted on actual devices. You will not be able to see things on your device as they are on a computer, due to different technologies for the Garmin watch display, and different monitors on the computer which host the simulator.**
