Correction of City Name: Laghouat (Not Zeribet El Ouef)

[Attallah_Rabhi]

Hello Samsung Community,

​My name is Attallah Rabhi, and I am a Galaxy S24 Ultra user from Laghouat, Algeria.

​I am reporting a consistent naming error in the Samsung Weather app and GPS database. The city of Laghouat is incorrectly labeled as "Zeribet El Ouef", which is an obsolete and incorrect administrative name for this location.

​Actions Taken:

​I have already submitted an official correction request to The Weather Channel (the data provider).

​I am sharing this here to ensure Samsung's technical team is aware of the issue for future database updates.

​En français :

La ville de Laghouat (Algérie) est affichée par erreur sous le nom de "Zeribet El Ouef". En tant qu'utilisateur de S24 Ultra, j'ai déjà contacté le fournisseur de données pour corriger ce nom officiel.

​Please find the attached screenshots as evidence of the error and my submitted report.

​Best regards,

• Attallah Rabhi
