Location not supported even though websites support the UK ? #38

I am getting not in coverage or Not found: location must be inside the Netherlands or Belgium when installing these. I’m in the UK, but both sites support the UK.

What’s going on ?

It seems you are using GPS coordinates that is currently not supported by the API (Buienalarm/Buienradar) that is being used by the neerslag-app. It could well be that on their main website (Buienalarm/Buienradar) they use a different API that does support your location. Unfortunately, the last time I checked, I did not have access to that.

I am looking into including API's from other providers. That should extend the coverage. Which includes the UK.

Yes it seems it works fine on their website. I thought you were using their API? And yes it would be great if you could support more forecasters. Thanks!

Correct, I am using their API's. Only their API's seem to limited to the current supported countries. If there are API's available for other countries I can implement those.
