Hello bonnie_meg,


Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities.


Let's confirm that you're updated with the latest iOS version to see if this could be related to what's occurring. The latest iOS version is currently iOS 15.6, so if that's not installed be sure to complete a backup of information before installing. For assistance with installing and backing up your iPhone, check out this resource: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


If you're up-to-date with the latest iOS version, let's check out the following resource to see if any of the information is helpful. In addition, check out the information below that can also be found within the resource to see if location services could be related to this.


Check the weather on iPhone - Apple Support


Note: Weather uses Location Services to get the forecast for your current location. To turn on Location Services, go to Settings  > Privacy > Location Services > Weather, then choose an option. Turn on Precise Location to increase the accuracy of the forecast in your current location.


If you're still unable to use the app, what happens when you disable VPN? If you get an error message, let us know what it says and be sure to try different Wi-Fi networks.


Cheers!
