"One Call Api" is now paid and available only by subscription πŸ˜” #28

Open PackRuble opened 1 month ago

PackRuble commented 1 month ago

Since β€œone call api” has become paid and is available only by subscription (with a card linked), the possibility of using it is cut off (commonly because I do not have a suitable bank card). However, if the user wants, he can safely register, subscribe and use his API key.

Therefore, there is an idea to also add ~free forecasts~

It definitely looks more boring, but at least it's something! :)


Comrades, I have tried contacting the openweathermap organization directly (via email) and asked them for subscription access or a special api because I don't have a suitable bank card to link to. After all, the current project is completely free, open source and all the attribution in the app itself is on the home screens. However, the two official responses were that there was nothing they could do to help me. πŸ˜”

So if anyone has the ability to sign up and link a suitable card and provide an api key to use, I would greatly appreciate it πŸ™. The project is small and free 1000 requests per day is quite enough to stay within the norm and not to overpay (the limit can be set in your personal cabinet at https://home.openweathermap.org/myservices).

No, I was wrong, of the free ones for a few days there is only this API:

Honestly, One Call Api could solve all the issues
