#Weather apps for android 2016 android#

As with any roundup of Android apps, and especially in this case, it's not possible for me to test all of the apps available so I can't claim that these are the top or best, but what I can say are the reasons that make them special and why I think they are good enough to deserve a place on your phone or tablet. I have divided this roundup into subcategories to address the various types and styles of weather apps, then picked a couple of interesting choices in each with a few honorable mentions to follow. That's why today I'm taking a look at some interesting weather apps for Android. And they can have a large selection of widget styles to fit with your homescreen's look. They can also grab their data from various providers that might happen to be more accurate where you live. Weather apps can provide a breadth of information that Google's knowledge graph and cards don't have. So why bother with a third-party weather client, especially when Google Now has its own weather card, Android comes with a News & Weather app, and a simple Google search for the name of your city with the word weather turns up the result you're looking for?ĭetails for one. Even browsing the category is a daunting minefield of Froyo-stuck designs and mediocre data and options. If one app category gets its own entire section in the Play Store, you should surmise that the choices are beyond wide and the selection is almost impossible.
