This one WeatherRadar - https://app.wetteronline.de/U13Q/deDETeilen
The company behind the app is kinda shit though. The German weather service, paid by German taxpayers to collect and provide weather data, has a weather app which used to be free, since it's already paid for by taxes. wetteronline (who by the way happily use the weather data from the German weather service for free for their own app) sued because they thought it's not fair that they have to compete with a better app that's both free and ad-free because, again, taxpayers already pay for the weather service. As result now if you want to use the official weather app provided by the weather service you gotta pay for it, despite already having paid for it in taxes.
All that said, the weather service's app WarnWetter is still the best in my opinion, well worth the 2.50€ that fucking wetteronline forced them to charge for the full version.
Thanks for the insight - I have it a try. So far their UI is not the best but no Ads is a plus.
What I wonder is A they can’t show much outside Europe I guess ? Any Tipps for that?
I don't mind the UI, but I also mostly use it as widget on the home screen where it blends in quite nicely.
Outside Europe I have no idea, I'd just give it a try and see what shows up. I've used it on vacations in other EU countries though and it always worked just fine.
