Erska,

I use YR Norwegian Meteorological Institute’s weather reports.

and have the widget show Precipitation for my chosen city. (work related requirements)


now this might not be perfect for others, but as I live in Finland the weather reports are quite exact and correct.

anewusername,

You can ask this and probably get a different answer for each comment! It really depends on what you want from it and what data sources work best where you live. I'll mention a few:

  • Forecaster is super simple, displaying the forecast for each day as a bar. Yellow represents clear weather, grey represents cloud, and so on. I quite like it, although you can only see weather, temperature and wind, and it uses Apple Weather with no option to use something else.
  • Clyma is by far my favourite. It looks the best and offers the most data (like wind gust and feels like temperature) and displays it in a graph. Although it's very unreliable, and sometimes stops refreshing entirely. I have to clear the app's data, then enable the location permission before I launch it again to get it working. So I can't rely on it that much.
  • Overdrop is a little bit like Clyma but it hasn't made it onto my new phone.
  • Today should get a mention. I don't use it much but it's got by far the biggest array of sources to choose from, and you get data on air quality that you don't see much elsewhere.
  • Meteogram is great if you really like customising and getting into the data itself. You can completely change how the graph looks and what data is included. I bought it on sale a while back and still have access to the old "Credits" system, so I can't speak for how the new subscription model works but there's still a free tier.
  • Forecastie and OpenWeather are nice ways to access OpenWeatherMap data if that's what you prefer.
  • The Met Office app is a nice way to get notified of warnings if you live in the UK.
  • And RainViewer is a very nice radar app, but the imagery doesn't seem to update very often here (even with Premium, which is meant to give you a 5-minute resolution. Other apps have this imagery, so I don't quite know why they don't because they definitely used to)

Hopefully some of that helped someone!

Weather on F-droid https://f-droid.org/de/packages/de.beowulf.wetter/

It has a really nice minimalistic widget with whtatever weather info you want for a location and it also integrates a clock with it, so its like 2 widgets in 1

pkntl,

I've found Windfinder to be really good for me. It's not as flashy as the others out there, but it's been really accurate and detailed which I value more than other features.

limeaide,

I like geometric weather quite a bit. Their widgets look nice too

confetti_8tVST5,

Love it been using it since I moved to grapheneos. Im a sucker for that design

recreationalplacebos,

Open source and available on fdroid, too! Only thing it's missing is a radar map, wX fills that gap nicely (also on fdroid).

LiGuangming1981,

My favourite too. Been using the 5 day forecast widget on my home screen for several years now.

Nope weawow is the best. It's one of the few non-FOSS apps I use. No tracking that I'm aware of.

I use an older version that still had Dark Sky, and it has the most accurate weather prediction where I live (middle Europe).

starmatt,

Im using Forcastie, it's on Fdroid

I'm really liking OSS Weather, it's OSM weather component.

visika,

I completely agree
