i am done with the one i am currently using after they discontinued the paid version and replaced it with a subscription years ago. i then used the free version with an ad blocker but today i opened it to find the message "allow tracking" with no opt out...

i know weather tokens aren't free but the first question is if there even is one that has a rain radar. it's the one feature i find useful (and why i kept using the old app as long as possible...) but it's mostly absent from apps it seems.

it doesn't need to be free or completely open source, just no subscription.

I use Cirrus because I love its widget, and it does have rain radar. It's GPL-3.0

Quickweather Has decent radar and info.

But I still like and use the 5-day forecast graphs from Forecastie

I use cirrus for radar and the radar widget, breezy for everything else.

Did a quick search on F-Droid and found RadarWeather. Maybe it'll work for you.

The german wetter.com has that feature.

Would Breezy work for you?

thanks, i tried it at some point and i just reinstalled it to have a look but it doesn't seem to have a rain radar (unless it is hidden somewhere). i am looking for a map like this:

Never delved deep so I'm not sure. For me its general weather, sun shine, rain or snow and that's it.

cirrus has that rain radar

i prefer OSS weather but their map doesn't work for me. Model comparison is really useful and i haven't seen it on any other app.

quick weather has a full screen rain radar but the rest of the ui is not customisable :/
