What are Reddit's favorite android apps in the category weather?

so, whats the big deal about this app? there are countless weather.io apps in the play store that give the same information.

a fan favorite weather timeline

my new favorite Forecaster

and others (that I'm too lazy to link) like Arcus, weather wild, simple weather ect.

not only does this app not look that great, but they are also charging $3/year, which is next to nothing, but when other apps do the same thing, look better, and cost a one time payment of $3, I dont see the hype about this app.

Maybe you can work with the dev of Weather Timeline to integrate the PressureNET data into a really nice weather app. Best of both worlds and a Dark Sky killer.

I purchased Weather Timeline a few months ago and love it. Great widgets and lots of configuration options.

*Forgot about Rainy Days. It's a great little radar app that lets you see nearly real time updates on precip in your area. Updates every 10 minutes and shows the severity of precip by color. I've used it successfully many times to dodge thunderstorms.

I'm using Today Weather. It gets the job done. You can also change between a couple of data sources (including dark sky and AccuWeather) in the app if the data isn't accurate to your location.

Weather Timeline has been one of my favourite apps since I first got it. Beautiful UI and animations. It has a persistent notification option meaning I don't have to open the app to find my weather, a 48 hour timeline of the weather and even rain, cloud and temperature maps. It is, I find, a perfect blend of simplicity and detail. Link.

Disclaimer; I'm with the company that makes MyRadar. Links to the app;

iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/myradar-noaa-weather-radar/id322439990

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.acmeaom.android.myradar&hl=en_US

Check out Weather Timeline. It is a paid app but in my opinion is the best weather app out there and totally worth it. They have a bunch of nice looking, customizable widgets where you can get things pretty minimal.

Here's the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samruston.weather

Dark Sky is my FAV of the 6 weather apps I use for various different features.

Today Weather is a close 2nd.

Even made an icon for it on the Shield.

The app Weather Timeline is a highly recommended weather app that can get its data from DarkSky as well as a few others. The interface is very nicely designed.

I can't personally comment about the auto updates since I've not done anything with those. It does say that background updates are disabled except for widgets, alerts, or notifications, so maybe those will be updated on their own?

Krona Sunlight hasn't left my wrist in months. It's beautiful, modern, and actually does something only a smartwatch can do, unlike all the analog face remakes.

Not as much. Check out DarkSky. Free for android paid for Apple.

This is just the first app to come to mind. I know i have told family members to download other apps for them to discover they have to pay for them and i dont.

Weather Timeline because of its UI, multiple weather sources to choose from, super customizable widgets and tons of options to tailor it to your liking. unfortunately it's not available in Play Store anymore, unless you had purchased it in the past.
I'm currently eyeing Overdrop for when WT stops working, although it currently only pulls weather data from Dark Sky, which isn't the most accurate in my area (I use Weather Underground in WT).
I tried out Today Weather, but I don't like its iOS-esque UI, and the way the developer spammed /r/androidapps with his app promotion back when the app was still new.

I use Wunderground for both my widget and the website I go to on my PC and phone. I'm open to suggestions but always seem to come back to this app. Quickly being able to see if it's going to rain in the next couple hours/days or if the temperature is going to change dramatically(cold fronts) is important though so that's why I like it so much.

Weather Timeline

I just decided to try out different weather apps for my phone, and all in all this was my favorite app by far. Great design, and presents the forecasts in a really good way. The widgets are great, and massive points for allowing you to chose what apps to use for clock and calendar for widgets that support them.

My only complain is that the Swedish localization is not complete, as some strings was still in English even when the app was set to use Swedish. It's not a big deal (I switched to English), but annoying nonetheless.

I do not think you will find any weather app that is 100% accurate all the time.

My recommendation would be to try Weather Timeline. With it you get the choice of using one of the 5 weather providers so if you do not like one weather provider you can easily switch use a different one.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samruston.weather&hl=en

I uninstalled it last month with similar reasons. Used it for 2 years or so before its name changes, but the app is getting more bloat every time I updated it. Sometimes it uses lots of ram in background for no reason and causes lag.

Currently I use Weather Timeline. Much more stable for me.

Weather Timeline is your best bet.

Minimal w/ a material design and super customizable.

My current use of a the widgets

I like Weather Timeline's stellar rain notification that tells you stuff like:

"It will start raining/snowing/drizzling in 12 minutes and will be for 45 minutes"

Go to r/androidthemes, search for "windows", sort by top of all time, and pick one you like. They usually tell you what they used to make it, but odds are they used Nova Launcher and, for those with a live wallpaper, KLWP.

For weather, I'd say check out Windy. Barometric pressure estimates and radar and forecast widgets.

Hi, If you don't mind paying a dollar (or two), try Weather Timeline. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samruston.weather&hl=en

But, if you are looking for a free weather app with widgets, accuracy and neat design, try Weather Wiz https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sixthsolution.weatherwiz&hl=en

Weather Timeline

I've been saying this since I got it and I'll continue saying this. It's the only app (apart from some Google apps) that I believe truly implements Material Design correctly.

Well, judging by Dark Sky, people get outraged for the first week or so, and then settle down. The ratings for this app were abysmal when the app came out a couple of weeks ago (around 2.7) with lots of rants about the dev screwing Android users over, etc., but has been steadily rising since.

I'm currently in school to become a commercial helicopter pilot so my apps may not be that impressive to everyone, but the apps called METAM (having trouble finding it on Google Play store ATM) and another, which isn't aviation specificm called MyRadar. Great apps for anyone who wants a detailed picture of the weather in your area.

I really love Weather Timeline's widgets, there's multiple widgets including plain weather ones and ones with clocks as well. I also enjoy HD Widgets, mostly due to the customizability (although it is a pretty simple app, nowhere nearly as customizable as Zooper Widget).

I enjoy Dark Sky. The premium version ($2.99/year subscription) provides a "down-to-the-minute forecast", which I have found very handy knowing it's going to rain/stop raining in precisely x minutes. And it virtually pays for itself when paired with Google Opinion Rewards.

Today Weather is also an awesome app. Has multiple choices to choose from as far as weather data and widgets. Was a big fan of weather timeline until I found.. today weather.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.lockdown.weather

Edit: I should mention though that I have paid for both weather timeline as well as today weather and you can't go wrong with either one, since they are both great apps.

Good list, but with the recent Material design update, the official Wikipedia app looks and feels superior to LoboWiki

Timely just added custom alarm sounds and is still one of the sleakest and most well designed apps on Android.

Calcu is still missing immersion mode, but other than that pretty darn sleak.

When it comes to weather, <strong>Weather Timeline</strong> is the one for me:

Looks great, displays a lot of information in a really good and easy to read format and supports several sources including forecast.io (there aren't many other apps that do yet).

Today Weather has a widget that looks similar.

Plus it's a great weather app to use, overall!

Edit: forgot the Play Store link

>Use the Weather Network app? Why it's sharing your location with advertisers

https://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/weather-network-addictive-mobility-advertising-data-1.4348675

On Android, i like MyRadar.

Weather Timeline is hands down my favorite https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samruston.weather

And I also use Blitzortung Lightning Monitor if the storm coming posses a threat to training (I coach, and dont like WeatherBug detector) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.blitzortung.android.app&amp;hl=en

I'm really into Krona Sunlight. you get the entire day's temperature, precipitation, weather conditions, battery level, and date, and yes, TIME all at a glance.

Check and see if MyRadar works outside of the US. Since the app rights purchase seems like a ploy to give their no-name weather app a popular facelift, I wouldn't expect the new Timeline to support anything MyRadar doesn't already.

Weather Timeline has been around since the Marshmallow days, and it’s still my go-to for that exact reason. It does exactly what you’re asking for, and does it well. Not to mention it’s still regularly updated~!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samruston.weather&amp;hl=en

WeatherTimeline

I use one of their smaller widgets (4x1 I think) and I made the background transparent. http://i.imgur.com/Ys9PcxO.png

I'm doing okay with Dark Sky. It's not quite the same, but it's close enough for what I need. I opted to go for the $3/year subscription so I could get the notification with the current temperature.

I like this tornado app a LOT - plus it has a cool weather widget:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.handmark.expressweather&amp;hl=en_US

Install that, and then go into Radar, the click the little "layers" icon in the bottom right corner. Pick Terrain (or satellite, if that's your thing), then Weather Layer = Radar, then Severe Weather Layer = Storm and tornadoes. Then go into Settings, Notifications, enable Severe Weather Alerts, Customize Notifications, and set as desired.

Now go back to your Radar map and let it load. Zoom out and you will see the red and yellow "zones" for the tornado alerts. In my case, it's located just N-NE over Frederick MD, and up to York MD. You may have to press the [] icon in the top right corner to get the animation to load and start up.

I use it for the following on a daily basis;

• Answering calls
• Glances at text messages and emails (Basically checking topic/who its from, if its worth to pull out my phone)
• Navigation (Put the watch on the cross bar on the steering wheel of the car for easy access while driving!)
• Weather
• Fitness tracking
• Music control

The watch faces I use are Krona Sunlight and Black Classic Watch Face. Krona might be the best one I've ever seen. It gives so much information at such a quick glance. It might take you a little bit to get used to, but it's oh so worth it. Black Classic is extremely customizable, which is why I'm currently using it. Also great with the Google Fit integration.

There's a fantastic app I use on my phone and, until yesterday on my android wear watch, really great and accurate weather app using forecast.io. I'm gonna shoot him an email asking about pebble support - it's exactly the kinda thing you're asking for with timeline stuff.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samruston.weather&amp;hl=en

I use 1Weather. I consider it good enough to have paid to remove the apps, even though I'm using an ad blocker and thus don't see them anyway.

Free gets you all the features with no restrictions, plus ads. Two bucks removes them. Five if you have the Amazon Appstore version — they know Amazon gives those coins out like candy and they wanna get paid. Also, couples share more Amazon accounts than Google accounts. Smart developer. Their app is solid, too.

I've used Weather Underground for a couple years now and I find it to be the best of the ones out there in my experience.

If you're looking for a weather app check out Weather Timeline https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samruston.weather

It's not free but very affordable and well worth the money. Just a weather app. Not weather news, or any extra fluff.

I like Weather Underground the best. Radar is great and has a lot of options once you start playing with the layers (weather alert areas, storm tracks, crowd reports, weather stations, etc.).

I'm using Today Weather. Very customisable. And it offers all kinds of weather alerts, but you'll have to use the paid version for that.

I have found https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=no.nrk.yr. It looks better as in the screenshots in the app store, is fast and seems to be very accurate. It's free without ads. Maybe we could give it a try. Im testing it in parallel to Today Weather now and cant really decide which one to use.

That's so true. There are a lot more apps, but the vast majority of them are terrible. The only app I really miss from WearOS is the Krona Sunlight Watch Face.

It's by far the most intuitive weather watch face I've seen and is better than anything on Tizen. Besides that, I don't miss anything from WearOS and it's not worth giving up the Tizen battery life for it.

Weather Timeline is my go to. Besides quickly being able to get a few hour forecast in the notification bar, it has a widget that has the temperature and precipitation as a line graph over 24, so it's ready to know what the temperature and rain will be all day.

The app itself has everything I want within a few chicks and it looks better than almost every other app doing it.

I lean on weather radar apps moreso than the per-hour predictions that many apps offer. It'll let you judge if you're able to beat the worst of it by hustling, or if you're going to get soaked no matter what.

Also, if I wear anything too waterproof/non-breathable, I turn into a big sweaty mess which negates the whole point. So I tend to lean more on quick-drying fabrics that have some DWR rather than full-on rain paints, and a Marmot Precip for the jacket.

I'm still using Weather Timeline. Unfortunately, you can't use it unless you purchased it before it was sold and I'm afraid ACME has likely abandoned it.

I was confused why I don't see the premium purchase link. Found out I had got it for free in 2017. Probably it wasn't that good back then. At the moment I use weather timeline which I have gotten used to. It was sold to other company which I don't like. New app with new interface is a welcome change. Anyone having both the apps has any opinion?

I wish I could block the sentinel from my router settings. gonna look into it. as an alternative for important weather alerts - MyRadar is a great app, sends out instant NWS alerts. I've gotten all the tornado warnings timely tonight from them. the radar map shows a pink overlay of the tornado warning alert, and tapping on it gives you the full text of the NWS alert. it's pretty perfect as far as radar / weather alert apps go.

and BONUS - this company is based out of Orlando! noticed their office was next to mine after seeing a bus wrapped in a MyRadar ad parked there and looked it up.

If you want weather for trip planning one of the most helpful was paying for the feature on Garmin and with one button it will show you the weather hour by hour along your route. And one of the best weather apps is dark sky it's got a simple forcast and also more info if you want it like radar.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.darksky.darksky

I can see it in USA: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=no.nrk.yr

Looks like no 90-minute precipitation forecast outside Norway. They claim to be supporting 10 million places worldwide but I'm not sure if the forecasts would be more accurate in Norway just because they're probably focusing on there, you might want to check different providers and compare which data is more accurate for your location. I like using something like this to compare: https://www.forecastadvisor.com/ but sadly I don't see Yr on the site for my location at least.

Update: checked out the Yr app, I really like the design. Compared the data with the stock AccuWeather, it was fairly close and only a few degrees off from eachother, but only time will tell which forecast was actually correct. Thanks for the tip!

Krona Sunlight https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.marscity.sunlight and Marine Commander https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bosenko.watchface.marinecommander are my most used

Unfortunately no. I just downloaded Dark Sky and it's honestly one of the best weather apps on either iOS or Android.

I wasn't able to search for WT when I went to reinstall it on my Note9, but some kind soul helped me get it.

• Link to thread

• Link to WT on play store

I don't know if something like what you're asking for exists. But if you can't find anything you can use Windy to get a forecast for your area. Now you only have to figure out what a safe windspeed is. :D

Have you tried today weather? It lets you chose between different weather providers and what information you want to see (which means you can turn off stuff you're not interested in). It has a minimalist design, albeit a bit iOS-ey.

There are in app purchases to remove ads(?, I'm not sure if there were ads in the free version) and for additional icon packs though. It is on discounts occasionally.

I didn't give any permissions (not even location permission) and It works fine for me.

If it doesn't allow you to open on your miui version, ditch that app. It seriously doesn't need that permission and they are seriously abusing permissions.

Move to other weather apps. For example, weather timeline - It might cost 2$ but It's a very good app. Alternatively you can use Google's weather information. It allows you to create weather shortcut.

Weather timeline is about the most perfect app in every way. Depending on the provider, the minimum update time is either 1 hour or 3 hours. (You can set it lower than that but it will still offer new information every hour or so). It does all you ask it for.

Price is at $0.99 IIRC

If you have an Android phone, I cannot recommend Weather Timeline enough, for its incredible forecasts.

It'll do things like, recommend you take an umberella to work with you if it detects there will be rain later in the day.

This morning, it predicted 15° by lunchtime, so we knew to wear plenty of thin layers to be able to adjust for that, but likely drop back down during the evening commute.

I've been rocking Krona Sunlight for a while: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.marscity.sunlight&amp;hl=en

Its great to glance at my watch and instantly be able to tell the weather throughout the next 24 hours period.

Weather Timeline has a widget like that.

I also use InstaWeather for Android Wear with a similar watchface.

Krona Sunlight

It doesn't have everything you want, but it has most. This is the best weather face I've seen.

I keep coming back to it despite other faces looking cooler or more unique.

Use Weather Timeline. You can use WU as a data source and the widget is much nicer looking. They also have an Android Wear face that changes color with the current conditions (and finally fixed the issue of white on white when it snows...)

Relay is your best bet for Reddit on Android. I promise once you use it you'll wonder how you ever lived without it. It perfectly adheres to Material design~~, and as your 5X has an AMOLED screen, you can turn on the Black AMOLED theme inside Relay to save a bunch of battery.~~ (Sorry, I was confusing my 6P for the 5X)

Use the free version of Relay for a bit and see if you like it. The only difference between paid is that there's sometimes an ad at the bottom of the screen in the free one.

EDIT: For weather, I strongly recommend you grab Weather Timeline. It's only 99 cents, and again, adheres perfectly to Material design (it actually won an award from Google for it). It uses Forecast.io as its source, and is extremely accurate. It has great widgets too. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samruston.weather&amp;hl=en

Still waiting for my zenwatch 2 to arrive, but these peaked my interest from another thread.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.marscity.sunlight

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.thema.wear.watch.morphing

I absolutely love 1Weather's widget, and the app as a whole.

Play Store link.

The Weather Underground app will allow you to do just that. I also recommend changing to NWS forecast in the settings menu.

I've been using Today Weather since the Dark Sky announcement. Paid for premium and honestly it's been pretty nice. Nobody's come close to Dark Sky imo but this has definitely made the loss more bearable.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.lockdown.weather

Thoughts on Today Weather? I recently switched to it and like it. It's a bit more expensive but it has a whole bunch of APIs to choose from.

I use Today Weather. They let you pick your weather source. And it's a very clean app with dark mode and built in radar.

The default install shows a dumb large picture that takes up half the screen which i disable in the settings so it's a bit cleaner.

Weather sources:

• Weather.com
• Accuweather.com
• Aerisweather.com
• Dark Sky
• Yr.no

Well, I'm using Windy app on my Android device... Not sure if it fit your need.

You can check out the web page to get an idea about the possibilities and layout.

Agreed about Weather Underground. I like that is has current weather, radar, and a 7 day forecast all visible as soon as you open the app. The UI and layout have the best information density of any of the weather apps I've tried. Plus it has a dark theme, and no adds if you pony up a few bucks.

Today Weather has some of the best weather widgets I've seen. I think only a few of them have backgrounds, and there are a lot of options. The app also looks cool. It's the best one I've found.

Costa ma è fatta bene, ti consiglio di provarla inoltre ha diversi provider così se non ti trovi puoi cambiare tranquillamente.

Weather Timeline

This week I'm recommending Dark Sky Hyperlocal Weather app, I pay £2.99 a year for a premium service that so far has been spot on with predicting when it's going to rain, I live in the UK and we get rain at the most annoying times, like when I've lit up the BBQ it will rain. Now I have the upper hand. The widgets are pretty good as well.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.darksky.darksky

Etwas später, aber ich kann Yr, zumindest unter Android, sehr empfehlen. Wird vom norwegischen Wetterdienst und dem meteorologischen Institut betrieben und daher ohne Werbung. App sieht gut aus und die Vorhersage bisher scheint vernünftig.

Play Store Link

Coming from Apollo... Boost is best client for Reddit on Android, IMO.

Weather Time line for weather apps - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samruston.weather

Enjoy your Pixel. ��

Today Weather Is the only Weather app I will use (using Dark Sky as a source). Lots of good widgets too

Widgets

I have a 360 Sport and like it very much. I love the convenience of having notifications and other apps on my wrist, especially when in meetings at work. The reason I picked it over the Huawei watch is because of the fitness component. I use it to track Spin class and runs. I even shower with it on. The band doesn't get nearly as dirty as I thought it would, and cleans easily in water. I hold off from saying I love it because the Moto Body software really only works really well with running. If it supported other activity modes like cycling, spinning, weight lifting, etc it would be far more useful. Endomondo is good for cycling, and shares data nicely with Google Fit and Moto Body, but I'd prefer it to be in one app. Also I'm experiencing a weird bug right now where Moto Body Run is incrementing time in 3 second chunks, which is really throwing off the heart rate zone calculations.

But I digress, if you're going to use your watch for fitness tracking stick with the 360 sport, if you want a more refined look switch to the Huawei watch.

Bonus Opinion: My favorite watch face is Krona Sunlight , it's an amazing weather oriented watch face. I love it so much that I haven't used anything else in 6 months. It very cleverly shows the next 24 hours worth of weather be using a colored ring around the outside of the watch face. Yellow tick marks are sun, Gray tick marks are clouds, blue tick marks indicate rain. The relative height of the tick marks indicates the temperature based on the next 24hr high/low temp forecast (taller tick marks are the high, smaller tick marks are the low). It also clearly tells you the current forecast based on your location, and the battery level of the watch. You can even tap the face to view the wind forecast, which as a sailor I appreciate very much. I'm not the developer I just genuinely love the watch face and would pay for again if I had to.

I absolutely love Weather Timeline. Yes, it's $0.99, but it's worth it. Go get Google Opinion Rewards and do a few surveys. You'll have the money for it in no time. Widgets are nice, lots of customization, multiple data sources if you find one to be more or less accurate than another, Material design, and your notification shows up on the lock screen. At least, it does on my 6P.

I don't think you're going to find a good app that will do this, any decent developer wouldn't touch that with a ten foot pole. "Yes, we're looking for an app that will drive the user directly into a storm front" is a pretty huge liability no matter how you spin it.

The Weather Underground app is pretty powerful and includes almost everything the desktop site does - the Wundermap is incredible and based on Google Maps. You're not going to get in-app turn-by-turn directions, but you can use GPS to show your location on the map and it's already overlaying Google Maps so you know when you switch over for navigation that any reference points you use to drop a pin would line up.

I use this for the opposite purpose, knowing when to detour from my GMaps route to avoid the worst of storms driving between service calls. The app gives you stuff like projected storm tracks for 20-40-60 minutes etc, so you can adjust your driving accordingly.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wunderground.android.weather&amp;hl=en

Love the weather widget, which app is that... if anyone got one that has the time date and 3-5 day forecast please let me know. the best one i found so far is Today Weather

Correct, we're just capital of the USA. If you download the Windy app for android that will give you live feed of how often lightning strikes when the weather radar picks it up, it's actually pretty nifty.

Download the app and feel that bitch vibrate off the chart come Friday when Fred gets here. You'd think you're holding a pair of electric clippers in the palm of your hand 😂

• Apple: Windy
• Android: Windy

I'll second MyRadar. It has an unfortunate shovelware-sounding name, but it's got quite a ridiculous amount of features. I have the Pro version for ease of keeping up on hurricanes, but its rain and lightning alerts work great.

As for severe weather alerts, I've had the best luck with this app providing the most rapid alerts (oftentimes mere seconds after the NWS issues them).

I don't use the widgets in 1Weather, but it does have some, including a round circle one that might accomplish what you want.

Today Weather

I loved the widgets and precipitation forecasts on Dark Sky. Found them to be very accurate in my area. Today Weather has the type of widgets I'm looking for AND Dark Sky is an available source. Sticking with the NWS source for now, but if a few months go by and I'm still digging it I'll buy it for sure.

Could try meteogram ... has a choice of different weather data sources so pick what works best for you. Disclaimer: it's my app ;-)

It's an Android app called MyRadar. Worth the extra couple of bucks to get the premium version. You can select per-station radar and then select reflectivity or velocity.

My favourite is Meteogram https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cloud3squared.meteogram

Tons of customisation for the widget, also you can select one of many weather APIs to use, including Dark Sky (you need to pay for that one)

Ive set mine up to replace Aix weather widget, but you can do anything with the widget (which is also reflected in how the app opens up full screen). It gives lots of predesigned widgets that you can modify, or start from scratch.

Check out 1Weather. It has a widget that lets you switch between hourly, daily, and morning/noon/evening/night forecasts. I've been using it as the main weather widget on my homescreen for a couple years.

Screencap

I use Weather Timeline for the notifications and as a weather info app, but I love Meteogram's widgets for the exact purpose you are asking about. At-a-glance weather with whatever variables you want, time and conditions, in all kinds of configurations.

E: Linked to wrong app at first.

Well you can always find via "Installed Apps" section in "My Apps* or via your Order history. Anyways here's the link for Weather Timeline.

A lot of the old standby weather apps are getting worse with time. Dark Sky is actually improving. I'm cool giving them a few bucks per year.

EDIT - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.darksky.darksky

I use Weather Timeline - Forecast by Sam Ruston because there are a bunch of widget options and you can change the colors pretty freely. Would definitely recommend. I use a transparent one so all I see is the icon for the weather and a bit of text for the temperature.

Today Weather.

It is one of the most beautiful weather app I've ever used, along with beautiful widgets. I pay for all weather apps including annual memberships, after using most of them for a year. Today Weather is the one I stuck with (some features do crash the app like radar and wind maps from specific sources.)

I also don't see anything wrong with the weather app that's built into the phone. The only reason why I have to stop using it, it's because it doesn't give me weather forecast past 5-7 days within the app, unless I click on it and it takes me to the browser.

Fwiw, this weather app recently started listing the UV index along with the weather, and has quickly become my go-to to see how much I should cover up/bother going outside at all.

I like Dark Sky (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.darksky.darksky). The back-end is forecast.io, if you're familiar with them. They call themselves, "hyperlocal" and can offer down-to-the-minutes forecasts.

There isn't. Weather Timeline (and other weather apps) have a permanent notification you can enable with the temperature as the notification's icon. The AOD shows notification icons, so that's where I get the temperature from.

Tried it, but I still stick with <strong>Weather Underground</strong>, and <strong>Today Weather</strong>
