# Set weather live tags

The Foreca Weather add-in for the Android Player allows you to use current weather data. You can simply enable it on the Android player and configure which live tags should be set for which weather conditions.

## Enable and configure weather live tags

To enable and configure weather live tags on the Android Player, perform the following steps:

1. Open the player configuration or the configuration group:
  - For an individual player, go to **Channels > Location**. Double-click on your player and select **Edit** next to **Configuration** in the **Edit player** window.
  - For a configuration group, go to **Administration > Player > Configuration groups** and double-click on the configuration group.
2. In the **Edit configuration group** window, select **Display extended modules**.
3. Under **Modules**, select **Weather > Appearance**.
4. Select **Enable Weather Controller**.
5. Set the following live tag keys:
  - **Weather live tag key**: Enter the default name of the live tag for weather.
  - **Temperature live tag key**: Enter the default name of the live tag for the temperature range.
  - **Wind speed live tag key**: Enter the default name of the live tag for the wind speed range.
6. If needed, adjust the **Weather data validity (in sec)** which specifies how long weather data is valid.
7. Click **Save** to save your changes.

Live tags help filter spots based on data from (local) web services. For example, to adapt the content displayed in a store to the current weather.
