I'm using Breezy Weather and really liking it so far. Has a good widget as well.

I just want them to add precipitation radar. That's all I really feel like they're missing.

[–] Dequei@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

I use it too, and Im using omWeather to see the radar

Was literally about to write the same. Definetly a +1 for Breezy from me too. Very customizable and with a lot of different information (like pollen levels which is amazing if you have allergies)

[–] LUHG_HANI@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Just added to use the widgets. Decent options.

[–] sky@codesink.io 2 points 1 year ago

I'm also a big fan! Great widgets too.

I love being able to set update intervals. I only look at the weather a couple times a week, so I set it to 'Never', then just pull to refresh.

geometric 👍

The last commit is from Jun 2022. I believe it's no longer under active development and instead a clone emerged and being actively developed under Breezy Weather (see other comment for a link)

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

it works fine

The widgets weren't for me. I think there's also a matter of security where you'd want the app libs to be updated once in a while for patches.

Tldr: not saying don't use it, just adding something to consider

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

i generally do and you're right. i didn't know the project was dead. i should stop mentioning geometricWeather 🙊

for a weather app that i use a couple of minutes a week through netGuard, i think it's ok (i don't use widgets and the app has no background permissions)

Oh man this rocks! Thanks!

I know that clima uses open meteo, but according to f-droid there are some anti features.

[–] G020B@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 year ago

Rain has a really good design and Open-Meteo API.

[–] twelve12@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

F-droid has a few decent ones, but it seems it varies by country quite a bit?
