Editing the longitude does not work

I love the app, the data seems accurate , but it does not let me edit the longitude of any location

It lets me edit the latitude but when I click on the longitude to change i, the phone vibrates and the numbers are not editable….! ( this is on an Apple iPhone 11 Pro)

Since most locations and small cities are not found in the app, the only alternative is to edit the GPS coordinates… but the app doesn’t even provide that which is a pity

Has potential, but needs work

This forecast app is usually accurate, but it can be difficult to find locations in the US. Since it’s a UK based app, it lists the county in the search function and can be difficult to actually select the right town you’re trying to search for. In addition, I don’t know why they didn’t include the seeing forecast from the Canadian astronomical forecast, which is where this app pulls data from. It would be so easy to implement, but seems like a big oversight. It would be even better if users were able to input their own coordinates of their location. Lastly, it doesn’t let you easily update your home location without deleting it and re-entering it again. If they fix these issues, it would be a much better app.

Respuesta del desarrollador ,

This is incorrect - the app does not pull any data at all from the Canadian astronomical forecast. We do not include a seeing forecast because we are yet to find one that is accurate and reliable enough to use.

You do not have to delete a location to make a different location the home location. You simply edit the location you wish to be the home location and check the home location checkbox :-)

We will be improving the location search options in a future update including the ability to add your current GPS location or enter the coordinates yourself manually. For now you can manually enter the coordinates, simply choose any location to add and then edit the description and coordinates in the next screen.

Bugs

Just tried it out. Can't believe they didn't test their app. When you go to select a location, it actually selects the one below it. I tried a few different locations and they all did the same thing. So to add a location I have to tap on the one on the list above it.

Its location search itself doesn't always work. I looked for Salem and nothing showed up. Then I did a search of "Salem, M" only because I know what county it's in. And it finally brought it up as an option.

Buggy app which makes me distrust the weather readings it provides for an area are incorrect.
