Default BerryWeather non-functional again? - 10-29-2009, 08:57 AM

Nice to know that the weather is "N/A" again this morning.

Anyone else experiencing that issue?

What version are you guys all using? I have .89.1 and it's working fine. I don't see 'N/A' anywhere.

Mine was showing NA on my "home" location, but not on my other two locations. It went away around mid-morning. Seems to be OK today.

We all know that there's no money to be made by fixing the old one... you have to sell a new version to make money...

As some have noticed - the N/A from Berryweather is dependant on the location you are checking - some have seen N/A for one location and at the same time but data for other locations.

This is largely dependant on what the weather feed is actually reporting - if the feed for a location is not reporting, then you will see N/A for that location. Some users happen to depend on locations where reporting is spotty and are often affected - others configure locations where the data is more consistent and rarely if ever see this. In may case I have 8 locations statically configured and one "Current Location" that uses GPS as a primary location with a fall back to Cell if GPS fails and I have never seen N/A on any of my locations - even during international travel.

I am of the opinion that a new version of Berryweather is being developed; I don't know what all will change with it but I believe that reliability and accuracy of the weather feed is one of the things that's being addressed.

I certainly hope so. I want to like this app so badly, but I appear to live in an area with ever-worsening reliability.

When it works, BerryWeather is a great app - very nicely laid out with a bountiful array of settings, options and displays. However, it's all for naught if the data source is not reliable and/or inaccurate.

I welcome a new version compete with a new weather provider service.

in addition to this issue reported here in this post, another problem I have seen all of a sudden is that views don't stick under settings. When I set certain views they don't view. Weird.
