Android App issue
« on: April 26, 2019, 03:49:03 PM »
Hello Folks,
I’m hoping someone can help me find a solution to my Android app issue.
Ever since all the recent updates to the profile system and WU app, I have not been able to access my station on the Android app.  It shows on the map view but when I select it or enter my station ID manually, it automatically switches to our local airport station.  I can select other stations around me and they work fine.  If I use a web browser I can access all my station data as normal as the problem only happens with the Android app.  I have tried reinstalling the app and it still does not work.  By the way, I have the same problem on all of my Android devices.
On April 9th, I sent a support email to WU and no one has responded to my issue.
I can usually resolve problems myself but this one seems out of my reach!
I would be grateful if anyone had some ideas for resolution!
Thanks,
Roger

Using Android 7.1.1 without issues. What version are you using?

Hi,
I'm using Android 7.0 on Moto G5 Plus
            Android 7.1.1 on Galaxy Tab-A 8.0
Neither work.  I kind of wonder if it's something wrong with my WU profile database as relates to Android.  Guess I'll never know if they don't answer my email.

I have this exact problem on an S8 on Android 9. Also, my PWS shows an airplane icon on it after selecting it.

I was having the same issues described here until recently . . .

Not sure what happened to correct the issue but I am no longer seeing the problem
App version is 5.9.6 / Android 9

Perhaps trying clearing all data, cache in android app / storage settings then making sure latest app is installed

it's also been suggested elsewhere in the forum that clearing cache and removing the app . . .  then installing the app version 5.8.2 corrects these issues
