This release finally brings the long-awaited weather alerts for the U.S. and air raid alerts for Ukraine. In addition location selection is now more powerful than ever — you can choose any point on Earth — and the new map view lets you see active alerts and affected areas at a glance.

To make all this possible, the way locations are stored had to be updated. When you first launch the app after updating, it tries to migrate your existing locations automatically. In rare cases, this may not work and you might need to re-add them manually. If that happens a notification will be sent.

Highlights:

  • Weather alerts now available across the U.S.
  • Air raid alerts now available for Ukraine
  • Pick any point on Earth as a location
  • New map view showing active alerts and impacted areas

This release is a minor update that fixes some annoying bugs and prepares support for an additional country that will be coming soon!

  • Use libsoup instead of relying on GVFS. This fixes the file system access warning in app stores
