  1. I have added a city that I cannot delete from my list almost as if it has become a default. I visited it once and have no immediate plans to visit it again yet I can't remove it even after resetting my device. What do I Do?

    1. Hi ev c,
      Thanks for coming.
      Did you receive any error message when deleting that city from the list?
      However, you can try performing clear cache and data for the weather widget to reset the widget back to default as you installed it at the first time by using the following steps:
      1. Go to the settings menu.
      2. Scroll down the screen until you find "Application manager" and then tap it.
      3. Swipe the screen to the leftmost to access the "All" tab where you can find the list of all installed apps.
      4. Scroll down the screen until you find "Weather" and then tap it.
      5. Tap "Clear cache" button.
      6. Tap "Clear data" button followed by tapping "OK" button.
      7. Press the Home button to go to the home screen and then you can set the weather widget again.

    2. I have a Galaxy Note 5 and the latest AccuWeather App. TO DELETE locations... open the cities list by tapping the 3 bars in the upper left corner, select "edit list", swipe over the unwanted city with your finger or thumb from screen edge right side to screen edge left. This was the only way I could manage to delete unwanted cities.
