Privacy weather app? (leminal.space)
submitted 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

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).

Sorry but now with the edit I can't recommend anything because the radars seem to always be very proprietary for some reason. I know some good weather apps. One of them has a feature called "weather emergency notices" or something like that. It can be what you're looking for but I'm not sure. "Breezy Weather" is the name if you're curious.

Somebody else suggested breezy weather too. It is super sleek, and has some nice widgets.
