Impossible to read, uninstalling directly

It always says waiting for GPS. Havent seen any data on it for a month now. Uninstalling

Developer Reply

Sorry to hear that. It has to update manually for the first time (yet you can program locations to skip GPS usage) - then it updates automatically - but ONLY if you use it at least once every at least 2 days (this is to preserve data consumption).

A lot of work went into this widget with high degree of customization - great work! I find the UI a bit more confusing than I want to (but that may obviously be just me).

The most INDISPENSABLE widget. Addict to your creation. Ultra complete features and customizable.

It would be useful to have an option to keep backlight on, all the items are so small it's impossible to read without backlight, and tapping the screen causes it to scroll

Developer Reply

Hi Roland, thanks for your feedback. One solution could be to limit number of hours displayed, yet it won't change size of icons - where I tried to find kind of compromise... For backlight I have unfortunately no control, yet hopefully you still find this app useful! :)

Aplikacja nie działa. "Szuka sygnału GPS" "pobiera dane" i nic więcej!!! Nie polecam!!!

Bardzo mi przykro, choć problem przewija się w komentarzach - w niektórych modelach zegarka należy na najpierw wejść do menu i wybrać odpowiednią akcję - np. 'użyj GPS' - jest to jednorazowa akcja. Problem jednoznacznie został niestety dopiero usunięty w wersji 2 - QuickForecast 2. Myślę, że prościej jest też zgłaszać problem bezpośrednio do autora, co pozwala zdecydowanie lepiej zareagować :) Pozdrawiam.

Great Widget, I use it way more often than the weather apps on my phone. Compact and super readable information, way better that weather icons!

Developer Reply

Thanks! I'd suggest - if possible as it depends of device - to move on to Quick Forecast 2 ;)

Hello, Unfortunately Fr235 is not supported by Quick Forecast 2... is little too old device :|

Great app but for some reason it stopped updated the GPS location and it thinks I'm 700 miles away from my curreny location. Needless to say, getting that weather isn't very useful. My GPS is set to GPS only and I haven't made any changes to my settings recently so I'm not sure why it would suddenly stop working. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, the algorithm is a little more complicated - in this version of program background update takes into account last activity (which used GPS) - if you haven't had any GPS activity - last location is always used. You can always refresh by going to menu and selecting 'use GPS'. The new version 'Quick Forecast 2' allows to turn on/off option of using last known location from any of activity. Thanks! Stan

Surely will come! Yet as there are some new features - I'd like to use them as well, so it will take a while...

Hello Andres, Please check following things - is your phone connected to internet? is Garmin Connect up and running? Does Garmin Connect sees your watch? THanks! Stan

Hi, perfectly working on my Fenix 5x. One idea to make it more readable. Why not using for each day of the week a letter in capital in black , would be easier on grey background ! Thanks Chris

Im not sure when it updates data. Can you force update from apixu every time i open a widget? I saw stale data today, until i switched provider to open weather and back to apixu.

Developer Reply
July 20, 2019, StachuMan

Hi. I have to limit querying data provider - as there is a limit above which price I pay for service will increase. Automatic update is every 12h or you can always force it through menu.

Same problem here: the widget changes location randomly, even if I enter a place on the watch (Fenix 5) settings and switch automatic refresh off. Nevertheless it deserves 5 stars.

Developer Reply
July 20, 2019, StachuMan

You were right... automatic update can change location to the current one. Solution would be to use current position only if there is no other position stored... Thanks for pointing this out, will see how to make it in a best way (maybe as option?)

Hello! I installed it on my edge 820, but I can not find the application to insert it into the active pages of the screen, and I can not find it on garmin connect on the phone (samsung galaxy note8). The application manual does not have these issues. Could you tell me how I can use your application? Thank you!

Developer Reply
July 7, 2019, StachuMan

Juliano, I'm not sure why I'm getting one star review for they way Garmin manage CIQ widgets on these models :( - if I'm right - it is only possible to show them by entering menu after pressing for short time power button. Yet I'm not 100% sure, please consult edge manual. Thanks, Stan

Hmm... as in last review answer I wrote already what are initial conditions - connection between phone and device - double check if Garmin Connect sees your watch. Sky visibility is required only for initial data acquisition or later - if you are changing your location only.

Dosen't work! Can't get the GPS data

Developer Reply

I'm really sorry for issues, yet I'd suggest to - go outside with a clear sky view, make sure that your phone is connected and Garmin Connect can communicate with your watch. All of that should solve the problem.

How can i use this widget in my Oregon 750t? I don't see the app, neither after sync with Connect and Express....

Developer Reply

I'm sorry about that, but the way to use CIQ app on these devices is quite wired. You enter there (if recall correctly) by short press of power button...

perfect, precise and complete widget. Just a little slow when opening or scrolling to the next widget on Fenix ​​5

You said:"Go to the menu - there you can change weather provider - but note - it will not refresh automatically - you have to 'force' refresh to download weather forecast from different data provider." It doesn't seem to work at all. Every time I change the provider try to sync again but nothing happenes. (what does FORCE REFRESH means otherwise? )

Developer Reply
May 19, 2019, StachuMan

Hi, Indeed - you have to force refreshing data - this is done by intention to preserve data usage... maybe should change that now...? How do you think? Nevertheless - you have to select then either 'use GPS' or 'last position' to download data from different source provider. Of course you have to ensure that - watch is connected to phone and phone is able to reach internet. Hope, that did help :)

At first I thought that it would have been difficult to get used to all those symbols but instead after just a few days it has now become second nature. This is by far the best weather app for Garmin users. Good job!

Sorry, no statistics available yet.
