[Frequently Asked Questions]
■ It's raining outside, but the current weather is listed as clear.
- The current weather is based on data from the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) observatory and is updated every hour. Therefore, it may be delayed depending on the update cycle.
■ The forecast is incorrect.
- Forecasts are based on estimated probabilities, not 100% accurate. As extreme weather events due to climate change intensify, it's becoming increasingly difficult to provide accurate forecasts. If the weather is unpredictable, please alternate between checking Kweather and the KMA forecast to prepare for changes.
■ The information isn't updating.
- Updates may be intermittently delayed during peak commuting hours and on the hour. In this case, try pressing the refresh button or relaunching the app after 1-2 minutes.
■ The screen ratio is incorrect.
- Some users may experience difficulties using the application due to incorrect resolution ratios. Please note that you can display the screen in the normal aspect ratio by going to System Settings > Display > Screen Ratio Correction > Checking the corresponding app.
