Weather Gods summary notification

Hello, even though I have Weather Gods notifications enabled and the Weather summary is activated and scheduled twice a day, at 7 AM and at 8:30 PM, I don't receive the notifications. All the other notifications work. How can I fix this? Thanks!
Also, a suggestion for the developers: a feature request to activate certain notifications that will follow automatically your location while you're travelling might be useful, instead of turning on and off your notifications for every city you travel to.

Now that you mention this, I have not seen them coming. Normally I get them at 6:00 AM. Wow. Hope is not a bug.

Hi,

I've had a few people contact me about not getting notifications.

The problem mostly seems related to people who got new phones or restored from backup.

When you backup, the Apple notification token given to weather gods is also backed up.

When you restore, we get given the token. However, the token is associated with the old phone and is no longer valid.

I'm not sure why this has happened this year - previous years of new phones etc have been fine. It also doesn't affect everyone.

Unfortunately, the only solution I can find that works is a complete uninstall of weather gods and a reinstall.

After the reinstall, please go into weather gods settings, my account and then tap on restore purchase to bring back any active subscriptions.

If you have any issues, please get in contact using the feedback email.

I've been "offline" for a while due to personal and health reasons, but I have started slowly back on weather gods development. Recently I updated the notification messages for severe weather alerts to have more useful information. Over the holidays I hope to add Lock Screen widgets, including a version of the VoiceOver weather complication we have on the watch. This is a widget which gives you a comprehensive summary of the weather, ordering the information by priority.

Also check your notifications. When I did that, all my previous notification went away.
PS. Are we going to have widgets for the lock screen? That be cool.

Hi Holger, I hope so.
