How can I change the Foreca weather desktop widget's setting so that it will display in Fahrenheit instead of Celcius?

Tap the desktop and hit the gear (or tap and hold on the desktop).

Hit the wrench on the widget

Adjust!

Those are instructions to install the widget itself. To actually change it from C to F, you have to tap the widget after installing it, then tap on the bar at the top that reads "ForecaWeather" and press settings. From there, select Units --> Fahrenheit.

Anyone know how to remove extra cities from the app? I have 2 cities that I can't find any way to get rid of.

Thanks for reporting the switching to Celsius issue. Apparently devices in the US have had a tendency to switch back to Fahrenheit when opening ForecaWeather 0.9.4. A fix for this bug will be released soon.

To get rid of extra cities, just search for others and they will be pushed off the list. In the fullscreen program, clicking the title bar also allows you to open previously visited places. If you visit 4 favorite places from there, any others will disappear from the buttons one by one.

The previously visited list can contain 50 cities so most likely everything viewed in the application will remain there, but they shouldn't get in the way being hidden in that menu.

i am also having a problem, hope to see a fix soon.

my ForecaWeather Widget is in °C but the application is in °F
- if I restart the phone it defaults back to °F
- if I change the application settings to °C the widget switches to °F

its annoying for me as I done understand Imperial.
and i just want everything to be °C.
any suggestions?

Hi,

I've set it on manual update but it still seems to update by itself.
It seems that it does everytime one passes from the desktop screen that hosts the widget.
Shouldn't be nedded to press it at least to get an update?

One more request, the cross in the configuration of the widget could be placed more inside the widget so that it could be placed more on the top of the desktop.

thx
