Privacy weather app? (leminal.space)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by xorollo@leminal.space to c/privacy@lemmy.ml

I'd like to track hurricanes. All the apps I see collect all kinds of personal data. I just go to NOAA to see the advisories, but wondering if there is something better.

Edit: OS is Android 14 Edit: looking for radar (probably) or some other feature to track hurricanes (I don't know what tools there are besides radar, but if there's something else I'm interested).

No, but it has static information, and it's not an app. The website isn't great on mobile either. It's got good information though, and I don't have to submit to location tracking.

There's an open source front end called WX, it's a little harder to use but it's easy to adjust too.

It has multiple different radars that work well in places that don't have much data

This one has a clunky UI, but it has sooo much I formation and like ten billion widget options. I think I'm going to keep it around for curiosity's purpose and see if it grows on me.
