I tried to cut off activity section in the weather app and it says there has to be one, why? None of the listed activities relate to me and I don't care to know what the weather is like for them. There should be an option to cut this completely off.

Go into the settings for the activities and turn off all but gardening. You can just scroll right past the avtivity tile when looking at your weather forcast, or you can just put a weather widget on your home screen.

Why canโ€™t I remove the Activities section in the Weather app?

Unfortunately, most default Weather apps (especially those pre-installed by manufacturers) include an "Activities" section by design. This section often shows weather suitability for things like running, walking, driving, etc. Even if these don't apply to you, the app may not offer an option to turn it off.

Hereโ€™s why:

Itโ€™s built into the app layout and not user-removable.

The app assumes these activities are helpful to a broad range of users.

Many default Weather apps donโ€™t include full customization options.


What you can do:

Check the app settings: Look for anything related to layout or suggestions, though itโ€™s likely limited.

Use a different weather app: Try installing a cleaner weather app from the app store that doesnโ€™t include extra sections like activities.

Send feedback: If the app has a feedback or contact option, you can suggest that they add a toggle to remove the section.


You're definitely not alone in wanting more control over the layout. Hopefully they make it optional in a future update.
