Honestly, I'd never thought to check, since I assumed the first-party Weather app wouldn't have a location opt-out. But it turns out Apple gives all the normal options (all the time, only when app is open, detailed location) that they give for third-party apps. Good for them! But sadly, our settings are identical and the discrepancies (both short-term and long-term forecasts) persist.
- carbocation 4y agoJust to be granular and pedantic: if your settings are identical and you are both denying the app your detailed location, then it still could make sense since you'd both be placed into slightly different locations. I also assume that isn't the case but am just mentioning it.
- gnicholas 4y agoPedantry is no trouble; we both allow detailed location, so there's no excuse for different results! It would also be bizarre to show a different long-term forecast to two people that are 1-2 miles apart (esp. in the Bay Area, where weather is relatively stable).
