Location error occurs in the HUAWEI Weather app

Problem

The following location errors occur in the HUAWEI Weather app:

• Unable to obtain the current location.

• The location is inaccurate. For example, city B is displayed when you are actually in city A.

• The location update is performed slowly. For example, the location is updated to the actual city where you are located half an hour after you moved there.

Cause

1. It has not enabled the location permission for the Weather app.
2. The phone's positioning is inaccurate.
3. The positioning of the weather data service provider is inaccurate.

Solution

1. Check whether the location permission is enabled for the Weather app.

   To do so, go to Settings＞Apps&services＞Apps,search for and access Weather,touch Permissions,enable Location and select Allow all the time.

   

2. Check and update HMS Core (Huawei Mobile Service) to the latest version.

   Open AppGallery and search for HMS Core. Click "Check for updates" If you see the message "Your version is up to date," it means your version is already the latest. Otherwise, please select "Update".

   

3. Check whether the phone's positioning function is working properly.

   Check whether the compass can be used properly: Open Compass and wait until the compass stops and displays the longitude and latitude.
