The error message in the screenshot above says: The api key is not active or not specified.

So the API key had already worked?
Did you receive an email from OWM that the key was temporarily blocked? This was also mentioned in #42, although I have not yet found a cause on my side, as nothing has actually been changed in this area.

Same happens to me. Downloaded the app two days ago and made a key at openweathermap.org. First I thought I had to wait longer for the key to be activated. Today I decided to test the key with:
http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/forecast?id=524901&appid={API key}
and there the key works! (Vivaldi Browser)
Behaviour in App is the same as in the picture. Can't get pased the error message.

EDIT: Just saw the update in the readme. That is the case for me.

I can also confirm this issue.

How to reproduce:

• Download the latest version of the App from Fdroid
• Create and activate a new account on openweathermap.org
• (Optional) wait 24h
• Try to use the new and active API key

This gives me exactly the same error message as @Ahplla showed in the screenshot.

Update: Sorry I just read the info message in the readme stating that new accounts do not work :) Never mind then, I hope you can fix that soon! Thanks

@Taddl and @DrChef new OWM keys no longer work due to a change on the part of OWM.
More info can be found in the following ticket: #34
