Free and Open Source
- No proprietary blobs/dependencies (versions 5.0.0-alpha and later)
- Releases generated by GitHub actions, guaranteeing it matches the source code
- Fully works with Open-Meteo (FOSS source)
-
Privacy-friendly
- No personal data collected by the app (link to app privacy policy)
- Multiple sources are available, with links to their privacy policies for transparency
- Current location is optional and not added by default
- If using current location, an IP location service can be used instead of GPS to send less accurate coordinates to weather source
- No trackers/automatic crash reporters
Note: If the link isn’t working for you or if you can’t find the app, update the default F-Droid repository in your F-Droid client.
it also supports Gadgetbridge integration, so I get the weather data from it on my watch.
Here’s the TIL I need.

Can this be used on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4?
Hey, I use this app! It’s awesome. They also included lots of information about the air quality measurements, which I appreciated. For example:
Than you very much! I’ve been using this app for moths and I didn’t know this. Cool feature.
I guess I’ll keep this in the back of my mind, but I already migrated over to QuickWeather when Geometric Weather went unsupported. It stinks that I can’t swipe between locations anymore, but the built-in radar and higher information density outweigh switching back for me.
My weather app of choice for about a year now. Really nice interface and solid performance.
Recently discovered it myself. Absolutely excellent.
Cool looking app. I wish it was available on Google Play for people not familiar with third party app downloads.
Great app, just wish they had a radar.
Also for my American brethren that also use Freedom units, you might have to set speed, temperature, volume, pressure measurements to something our smooth brains can understand:
Downloaded and using now instead of “Tiny weather forecast germany”
I’d been using Geometric Weather for many years, and I noticed a few weeks ago that it was misbehaving, not fetching data sometimes. I didn’t realise it had not had an update for almost 3 years!
I had switched to Google’s weather app, but maybe I’ll switch to this instead. Thanks for the heads-up.
Tried it, decided to stay with Weawow which is beyond excellent.
Why does it send intermittent notifications stating the update failed?
I had to mess around in Android/Samsung settings to give it permissions to run in the background.
That’s probably why that happened to me, on Android as well. I set the location setting to work only while using the app. I think since I turned off notifications, it stopped sending the failed update message.
Can it show something like a dashboard with forecasts for multiple cities at once?
Yep, it has a widget for that.
You mean, homescreen widget?
No in app view for that?
I just installed the app and it looks pretty cool, but can’t find forecast graphs for multiple locations on the same screen anywhere.
If it’s just about current weather, the locations view kind of does this. Otherwise, I’d be super interested to hear which app you’d seen that in before, sounds like an interesting feature
I don’t think it’s FOSS (that’s why I’m looking for a replacement), but Klara does this:
Very cool feature, thanks for sharing!
No problem.
If you ever find a FOSS alternative, let me know :-)
But what’s wrong with the regular app for weather on my Redmi 13? It seems to work just fine
What’s with all of the permissions?
