I didn't even know Geometric Weather wasn't maintained any more. Thanks for this.

Would be great to have this on Fdroid though, seems like it might happen
Oh thanks for sharing. I still use Geometric Weather but I did notice that it's abandoned.
We need to get Wheezey Waiter to promote Breezy Weather on a podcast called Cheezy Wrangler. Link in the dooblydoo /s
Nice! I don't have any issues or bugs with geometric, but it's good to know development is going forward elsewhere, in case of future incompatibilities or api changes.
This looks really nice. Was using Prognoza for a while, but ended up back with the BBC Weather app here in the UK as I couldn't find a good open source app that showed allergy/pollen information.
This does seem to show allergens for some areas, though not all. Possibly a bug given the provider (AccuWeather) does provide it for each area on their website. If that's fixed I'd probably be able to use it exclusively.
I tried Geometric Weather for a while. I appreciated that it actually had everything I'm looking for in a weather app: up-to-date data, a widget and severe weather alerts in notifications, though I moved on from it because those notifications would keep popping up every time the app refreshed the data. That issue was being worked on when the main dev vanished. I'm sure this fork will take care of it, and I'll be watching for when it drops on F-Droid.
Wauuu it's looks great and better than GW, I was change and I'm happy.
Can you link to it? I have never heard of it before
This looks great and hopefully widgets will be added.
Widget are there
I found them. I was just to stupid and didn't saw them ๐
