Currently, the location service get close to where I live, but still pretty far away such that the weather could
potentially be different where I am, compared to what feather is reporting to me.

It appears that even on the highest accuracy setting, Geolocator still isn't very good 🤔

Since this seems like a localized issue, feel free to close this and I'll just change the source before I build the apk

Can you check app logs and see requests to Open Weather API? There should be your lat and long coordinates. Please check if these coordinates are valid for your location.

my com.jhomlala.feather/files directory is empty. Is that the correct location to find the logs?

No, there is no logger which logs to file. Logs are printed in console. You can try run app in Android Studio or VS Code to see logs.

running it on android studio, google says the distance between my given coordinates from geolocator are 3400 meters from my exact location.

that's a good deal bigger than the 0 - 100m the the geolocator plugin claims

Well, my location is pretty accurate. Detected location was 10-20 meters from my real location. I think that 3400 meters will not affect the weather that are being received from Open Weather API.

Anyway we can try use another library for geo location. Do you know any libraries that will work better than GeoLocator?

Well we can try adding feature which allows to setup lat/long manually.
