How does the weather feature work on the Moto Watch 40?
The Moto Watch 40 provides real-time weather updates powered by OpenWeatherMap. The data is based on your geographical location, which is determined using your phone's GPS coordinates (latitude and longitude). OpenWeatherMap then pulls weather data for your exact location. Keep in mind, however, that weather information may vary slightly compared to other weather platforms that use different data sources.
What does the moon icon on the Moto Watch 40 represent?
The moon icon on the Moto Watch 40 is not related to the current phase of the moon, but rather a weather indicator. It signifies that the skies are clear during the night. If you see the moon icon, it simply means that the weather is clear in the evening.
How does the watch determine my location for weather updates?
The watch uses your phone's GPS data to determine your geographic location (latitude and longitude). The weather service then uses these coordinates to fetch the weather data. If your watch or phone has trouble pinpointing your exact location, or if your area isn’t fully covered by OpenWeatherMap’s database, the weather data might not be accurate. Additionally, the weather data might come from a nearby station if the system detects your location is closer to that station.
