Add 3x1 "daily" widget, set view style to tile, change subtitle data to custom and paste this line on the field

Been using breezy weather for a few moneths so far, I really like it. Im using the daily tile and the clock+daily 4x2 widgets (I have stacked them) and I get almost every info I want.

Mine, I add some unicode emojis to make it look nice.
First line for weather details.
Then a blank space, or for alerts if any.
And a calendar line.

How to update default repisitory? I cannot find an option to and Google isn't particularly helpfull.

Try searching org.breezyweather in fdroid. For some reason I had to type it exactly like that.
