Albert911emt - (ID: 00000024f2782ec0) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 03/04/2019 Good looking app, but everytime I open it, I have to specify my location to get the local weather. When I save my location to the Favorites, at least I don't have to type my location again, but I still need to click on the location in the Favorites, every single time. That makes no sense. Uninstalled.
