The AccuWeather widget always thinks I am in the city next to mine. Google search always predicts it correctly. Does anyone else have similar experience?

Yeah, it has always happened even on my other phones. It's a little annoying but the other city is so close that the weather info is still valid.
I use Beautiful Widgets for my weather app, and it usually get my city correct.
Hi to all,
I've a chinese smartphone named Vivo Xplay, Android 4.2.2 and it has an AMAZING weather apk, with faboulous widgets!
Unfortunately this apk has only chinese cities provided and I cannot use this app cause other cities are not avaiable.
Also if you select "Set weather with your current location" doesn't work.
I get the app rooting the device and extracting it from system folder.
Is there anyone that is able to edit this apk and add international weather provider so this will be used in every place of the world?
If there's anyone can do this I'll give the app. I think it will be working for all devices after that.
I'm sure it will be useful for many people here.
Thanks in advance!
try this instead

This weather app has much more micronised location system. The home screen widget shows your street address which i have not seen other apps from big developers offering per se.
light on battery and resources.
gonna have to try this one. I currently use the weather channel app and I don't like the newer updates.
hello
i prefer Eye in the sky weather:
another fantastic app is 1weather
LG
PS: I would have posted on the left, if I had the authority for :crying:
Is it possible to change the provider on the stock weather widget on the G4 from Accuweather to another one?
Accuweather gives a totally incorrect forecast 90% of the time in my case.
It's been saying all morning heavy cloud and to wrap up and its been sunny, blue skies and 22 deg for the last 2 hours.
Cheers
Have you tried changing the update interval in settings to 1 hour instead of the default 3?
Yes that was the 1st thing I did, I like the widget itself I just don't like AccuWeather as the provider but I can't see a setting how to swap it

How could this be possible, without having any option to select weather service providers? Stock weather app is very basic and is tied to Accuweather, as their services are default on all Samsung and LG devices, because it's official weather provider on these devices.
Whilst I am in agreement with OP, unfortunately Accuweather is the only service provider LG use as stock, it's all built into the smart notice etc. There's no way of changing it from the front end, and changing it back end in the code would be just messy. I tend to use Google Now for weather as it seems to be more accurate.
That's unfortunate. Thanks anyway. I'll just change to another weather/time widget that I can choose, and that is at least somewhat accurate.

There are some weather applications available on Google Play store, that allow you to switch between weather providers such Weather Timeline, and a few more. I've tested a few applications, and these weather providers are all you get to choose from: yahoo.com, yr.no, forecast.io, weather underground, openweathermap, world weather online. Most of these apps, gives you between two or three providers choice, but Weather Timline has max. no of providers. You can check them out.
I am using the three dial watch face with date, weather and steps. Is there a way to tie the weather dial back to the weather app of my choice? I don't want it to come from Google Now as it isn't as accurate as The Weather Channel. Additionally, I am trying to go with location off for Google Now.
Edit: I'm sorry. This should have gone in the 2015 thread instead. Could a moderator please help me out by moving?
Anyone finding that weather no longer gives the accurate multidate forecast? It's accurate for current but the forecast won't update. I have tried updating, force closing (can't Uninstall as it's a system app). It's 45 degrees but my watch says it's going to be 0 tonight.
Update your weather app on watch through Galaxy App store. Hopefully it should work. Switch a few watch faces after that so your original Watch face get connected to the new version of weather app.
