How does Weather mini protect my privacy?

Weather mini collects zero data from you. The app operates completely offline except for fetching weather data from Apple WeatherKit. All city searches are performed on-device with no internet connection required. We do not collect, store, or share any personal data. For more details, see our Privacy Policy.

Do I have to allow location?

No. You can fully use the app with the built-in offline city search.

When will the app ask for my location?

Only when you tap Locate. The app never auto-prompts on launch or from widgets.

After you grant permission and use Current Location once, the app will silently refresh your Current Location on every launch (including from widgets). This refresh doesn't change the active city unless noted below.

What you'll see on launch

Reopening from the background (via app icon or the Forecast widget):

• • If your last active city was a saved city: you'll see that city. If you've moved, Current Location updates silently but does not switch.
• • If your last active city was Current Location: you'll stay on Current Location. If your location changed, the app automatically switches to the new location and refreshes data.

Cold start (the app was terminated):

• • If you've used Current Location before: the app opens to Current Location. If that reading is 15+ minutes old, it refreshes immediately.
• • If you've never used Current Location: the app opens to your last selected city.

Launching from a city-specific widget (Details or Day/Night):

• • The app opens to that widget's city, even if it's different from your last in-app city.
• • Current Location may still refresh in the background but won't become active in this scenario.

When does the app switch cities automatically?

• • Cold start → switches to Current Location (only if you've used it before).
• • Launch from a city-specific widget → switches to that widget's city.
• • Reopen from background with Current Location active → if you've moved, it switches to the new location.

In all other cases, the app stays on the city you launched with.

Manual control

• • Pick any city from your city list.
• • Tap Locate (after granting permission) to switch to Current Location.
