Is background App refresh on for BeWeather? If not, turn it on. You might try deleting your location/locations and entering them back.
Background app refresh is on. I've deleted the whole app and set it back up. No luck.
Make sure you do not quit BeWeather by swiping it off the app switcher.

Yes I make sure I'm keeping it running in the multi task switcher and not flicking it out

Have you always had this problem? Or a lot of the time? I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the personal weather stations there. Maybe the next update will fix it. You've done about all you can do..

Nope never had this problem before updating to iOS 9. That's when I noticed the change. I don't what else to do. I'm not restoring my phone either just for this. I always do a clean install on the Mac when there's an update whether it minor or a full iOS upgrade(like 8 to 9). Prior to iOS 9 on a very very rare occasion it wouldn't up date maybe one hour or two but then just opening the app and refreshing it fixed the problem. But like I said that was a very rare occurrence.

I'm going to wind up changing weather apps because this has become extremely unreliable for me

I'm not getting the hourly notifications since it went down yesterday. I've deleted it and reinstalled. Haven't had time to test it yet. Had a Dr appointment.

The issue yesterday was with weather underground. Not much pfluger can do about that. I deleted and reinstalled, but keep forgetting to check on the hour. I have to close and lock the screen first. It's set on 5 minutes, but I forget. LOL

@pfluger The hourly notifications have stopped working since it went down yesterday. I deleted and reinstalled the app, but it still no longer works. Others report the same.

Ok thanks ! I know....I understand what happened with WU has nothing to do with pfluger and if it came off that way I apologize. I certainly didn't mean it that way. I was just expressing myself out of frustration with the app not updating as it should.

I can say when the app was updated to .18 it started to work, but then WU going down killed it and it won't respond to hourly lock screen alerts or weather alerts any more. My icon badge won't update either. My iPad mini is acting the same way, no response.

Oh I hope his can get sorted soon this is my fave weather app and the only one I have installed since it came out !

@pfluger The hourly notifications still do not work. Odd thing happened this morning though. I got notifications for frost and fire early before 5 am. The hourly weather notification came in with those. But hasn't appeared since. I don't know if that's helpful or not, but wanted to show it.

The app works just fine on my phone, but not on my watch. I was at a cook out at my son's house last night and the app updated to his location just fine. However the watch didn't. I tried ever thing and still a no go. Just before we left it had update to correct location. when we got home app updated, but watch did not. In fact it's still on my son's location. I really hope this gets fixed us I love the app.

Ok, the hourly notifications are working again. I have Touch ID toggled off for phone lock. It's set on 5 minutes. I turn it off at 5 til the hour. It comes in at :01 or :02. It also works on my iPhone 5. It would be great if the hourly worked without the phone being locked. I could set notifications for "Alerts" and have it show on a pop up.
The temp badge still does not update unless the app is opened.

This has been a known issue that I brought up earlier in the thread. He stated its a known issue and it's being worked on.
