Tired of weather apps that notoriously access your data and reveal your location?

Then try this free alternative: #TinyWeatherForecastGermany

This is a #floss #weather #app for #android that respects your privacy and uses the very reliable weather forecast provided by the Deutscher Wetterdienst @DeutscherWetterdienst .

It includes a weather forecast for up to 10 days, a rain radar and weather warnings for Germany and extensive weather texts.

It provides multiple widgets for your home screen and also forecasts for international locations worldwide.

As it caches forecast data, is is well suited for travel and use in regions with only intermittent internet access.

Give it a try and regain your privacy.

Does anyone has a spare Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (version from 2020, SM-P610, not the successor) willing to sell it for a reasonable price?

I need a tablet with good, official #lineageos support.

Actually, any of the other officially supported Samsung tablets would be ok, too.

You would also support the #floss #dev of #imagepipe and #TinyWeatherForecastGermany (yes, that's me) and help me to better test both #apps on real #tablet devices.

I am developing two #floss #apps , available at #fdroid.

I am still concerned about G***le making #android more and more proprietary and closed. Not sure #floss things will have a future there.

But where to migrate my apps to? Generic #java, using #javafx ?

What is the future of our #floss #android apps ?

@neil pointed me to this: https://developer.android.com/developer-verification

This will make alternative app stores like #fdroid mostly useless on #android devices with a stock rom, since most apps won't install at all, unless also available through the play store.

Being the dev of the #floss #apps #TinyWeatherForecastGermany and #imagepipe, it is unlikely that the apps will be available for devices running a stock rom in the future, since I likely won't share my private keys with G****e nor will I give them a copy of my ID.

Das neue Regenradar von #TinyWeatherForecastGermany ist echt super; es lΓ€dt deutlich flotter. Vielen Dank fΓΌr die tolle App, @Billie!

I am happy to announce that my both main projects #TinyWeatherForecastGermany and #imagepipe are #reproducible #builds at the #izzyondroid repo.

Thanks to @IzzyOnDroid for his assistance to achieve this!

ok, just released #TinyWeatherForecastGermany version 0.63.0 !

This update will fix some things:
- the clock widget should now be better resizable on #pixel devices
- updates the weather stations available ->
some new weather stations, especially in #lithuania
- various bug fixes and smaller ui improvements

Enjoy the new version!

This is a #floss #weather #app for #android devices based on #opendata from the @DeutscherWetterdienst

I just updated the list of weather stations used by #TinyWeatherForecastGermany , and it turns out my app now supports 6291 locations worldwide.

Time to update the advertising claim from "over 5000 locations worldwide" to > 6000 πŸ‘

#TinyWeatherForecastGermany delivers you a weather forecast on #android devices based on #opendata from the Germany's National Meteorological Service, @DeutscherWetterdienst .
