Are you going to develop yourself the new source for the app?

Give a bit more details or context about this source

Before I found Breezy Weather, I was always using wetteronline.de, which predicted the weather with 99% accuracy. When I switched to Breezy Weather, I was initially impressed by the design and features. However, over time, I noticed that the weather data (regardless of the provider) was often incorrect.

I'm not sure if it's possible to integrate the wetteronline.de API into the app, but I would really appreciate it. Otherwise, I think I will have to stop using your App.

Acknowledgements

• I have searched the existing sources and the existing new source requests and this is a new source, NOT a duplicate or related to another open OR closed issue.
• This source has a free-tier available (not a trial period), and if it is a main weather source, it includes free hourly forecast
• This source does not require sensitive information (billing info, phone number, etc) to subscribe to the free-tier
• I understand there may be technical limitations that may prevent implementing this source (for example, the lack of coordinates information)
• I wrote my request in English. I can write in my native language under the English text, if necessary.
• I understand that this app is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY, so I may not get a positive reply to my request, if any at all.

Your link is invalid, it's an unofficial python library, we don't use this language.

Also, I don't see the point of this source? Why not use the DWD source directly since it's the same data?

Sure, here is the text in English:

That's a pity. I'm not that familiar with APIs, so sorry about the suggestion.

However, the weather data is different. Here is a comparison between Wetteronline and BrightSky:

Regarding daily information, max/min temperature (which I believe WetterOnline website uses) is different from max temperature of the daytime period and min temperature of the overnight period. If that's the case, the values will always be different. Read more

Regarding hourly information, it looks like Bright Sky is more accurate, right?

That's a pity. I'm not that familiar with APIs, so sorry about the suggestion.

I will proceed to close then. I didn't find any official API, feel free to reopen an issue if necessary. Even the unofficial Python package is not able to get weather for a longitude/latitude, only by name. Which is a problem, when you're looking for weather for Paris, Texas, and you get instead Paris, France. That's why we need to talk with longitude and latitude.
