Ever since I started using smart phones, I have been jumping between different weather apps and have not been very satisfied with most of them. I found the apps from the big weather providers like Accuweather and Weather Channel to be bloated and distracting with advertisements and irrelevant news. The app I was closest to being satisfied with was the free version of Dark Sky, but I didn’t get to enjoy it for very long since I discovered it not long before Apple acquired it. What are some of the best weather apps on Android right now?

    I recommend Weawow.

    Odd name. Great app and widget. Single, dedicated developer and very simple monetization hook (just a donation, if I recall correctly).

    Multiple data sources supported, and very customizable.

      That’s what I use and it’s the best weather app I’ve seen so far. The coolest thing is, when you’re choosing weather providers, it will show you the current forecast for each one, so you can compare them better.

      And it has so many widgets that are easy to configure.

      Another +1 for Weawow. The widgets and choice of weather provider put it over the top for me.
