    I use Flowx, it’s customisability and access to so many excellent weather predictive models please me greatly.

    Nobody has mentioned windy. It has multiple maps and multiple sources you can look through. Highly recommend

      To add to this, very much the red icon windy app, not the blue one.

          It’s a different app of the same name but it’s very much geared toward sporting weather than active weather.
          It’s probably great if you go sailing a lot or fly a plane, but it’s not the best for hourly weather and radar.
          They have the same name but it’s too very different experiences.
          The windy app with a red icon is far superior in my opinion.

      Yeah, I like the map view so much better than the way forecasts are usually given because it gives much better context. You can see the cold and warm fronts and the various storms in the area and watch the forecasts hone in on the truth as time passes and they need to rely less on intermediate forecasts as they get replaced with actual data.

      They’re not always correct, tho: recently checked it, it said smth like 14C which is supposed to be comfortable (yet it felt quite hot outside), then checked another provider – 18C (yeah, that’s closer).

    Yeah MyRadar is the only app that seems to give me a reasonably accurate forecast in Ohio. I block ads and mostly look at the actual radar though.

    Wunderground went to crap and I’ve really tried to like Shadow Weather but it’s wrong too often. Meteo Weather Widget is decent but not as useful to me as radar.

      I’ve tried the majority of the weather apps on the android app store, and they’re all just mediocre compared to MyRadar.

      Then again, MyRadar is mediocre compared to what Dark Sky was. What an unfortunate situation with that app being bought by Apple and turned into WeatherKit or whatever. That was the best weather app, hands down.

        Hah I remember using Weather Underground before I landed with My Radar.

        Now I’m never going anywhere else until someone acquires MR and ruins it.

        Pull down the shade at the top where it has your location and a basic 2-day forecast. Then if you scroll down you can see an hourly as well as a detailed 10-day forecast.

      Breezy Weather all the way, also like Flowx app for it’s easy to read and condensed whole week chart also available at a widget, name and icon looks like period taking tracking app but believe me it’s a weather app, shame it’s not open source

      I love breezy weather, but the widget has stopped updating since the last OS update. I’ve tried all of the stuff to prevent killing background apps. Anyone know a fix?

      Nothing really compares to what Dark Sky was, but MyRadar is as close as I could find and I’ve tried all the major and some not so major apps on the Google Play store.

        Can’t find a forecast as good as wunderground and can’t find a radar as good as myradar. They live side by side on my phone

      Wunderground has been the most accurate for me. You can also narrow the forecast down to your zip code.

        I’ve been using it for at least 15 years at this point, and my job relies on accurate forecasts.

      Any app that works with the Spanish weather provider will have the best predictions possible for me, it’s sad that most don’t let you swap providers.

    Get yourself a government funded (well, taxpayer funded) weather forecast page. Quite accurate forecasts for weather, rain, cloudiness (including simulated radar models). Also radar images for cloudiness and rain. And free historic data. Without ads.

    But I guess that sounds too communism

    I use WTForecast. It’s funny. I guess I technically also use the default Android weather app, because my lock screen has rain or snow on it when either is happening outside, it’s kinda neat.

    Gross, much prefer Wx, Breezy Weather and sometimes RadarOmega to watch severe weather outbreaks.
