About the weather secret key

 

Set weather update interval

The shorter the update interval time, the faster the power consumption; the minimum value of the update interval time is not less than 5 minutes.

 

FAQ

Will the weather on the dial increase power consumption?

It depends on your network condition.

Whenever the watch needs to update weather data, it will make a web request to the internet to get the latest weather data (JSON), which will consume extra power during the communication process.

After testing, in a real Forerunner 935 watch, a stable network is set to work every 5 minutes (minimum interval). The 24-hour power consumption is about 3.8%, and the power consumption is 3.5% when the weather is off. The difference in power consumption is about 0.3%, and the average power consumption per weather request is about 0.001%. When the network is not ideal, the communication time will be extended, which will increase power consumption. Therefore, we recommend that you use a weather source with short delays and fast response times.
