Sign in to your Android Police account If you're someone that relies on weather apps, you'll know how important it is for these apps to be accurate. Now, we know that it's not possible to get the weather right 100% of the time, but the higher accuracy when compared with competitors is appreciated. According to Android Authority, the Pixel Weather app will now allow users to provide feedback. This is now available in version 1.1.20261012 of the app, which now has a "Report current weather" option. Will things get better? Credit: Android Authority By offering to submit a report, it will take you to a new page that will show you some options about the current weather. You can share whether the weather seems accurate, or if its warmer or colder. You can also provide the current conditions. When it comes to the data that Google will collect, Android Authority reports that the app will "collect the feedback, device location, and diagnostic information." However, it's important to note that it won't collect data about your Google account. It's a start Now, as stated before, it's important to get accurate weather from your weather app. As someone that often commutes using public transportation, it's essential to know when bad weather is coming. If you can get accurate hourly tracking, even better. If you can plan your day around weather events, you can have a better peace of mind when moving to and from a location. I've been in situations where an app told me that the rain was tapering off in a few minutes. So, instead of charging into the rain and walking home, I just decided to wait it out. And sure enough, the app was accurate, the rain started to let up and it was clear as ever. I was able to walk home without getting wet, and didn't even need an umbrella. The data really matters Naturally, Google doesn't have its own weather data and relies on reliable sources in order to provide the most accurate forecasts that it can. And each region will have its own resources too. However, Google does sometimes collaborate with these sources. The aim here is to create a better app or at least provide more accurate information. With users being able to report inaccuracies, Google will be able to better see how and why these inaccuracies occur. If you're someone that relies on the weather, we always recommend giving some other apps and services a try. If you're thinking about moving on from Pixel Weather, we have some suggestions that you can try. Of course, some apps will do things better than the Pixel Weather app and vice versa. Sometimes you just might need to use both in order to get the best of both worlds. And that's not a bad thing.
