What is a privacy friendly application that you'd love to have, but no one has developed yet? (lemmy.ml)

Which one? I'm using geometric weather, and there is a FOSS clone/adaptation called breezy weather that I'd love to use but unfortunately there's an unfixable bug, so I'm more than happy to look for alternatives.

It's called Weather Warbler. It's very simple. Still adding additional features when I have time.

Just had a look, any idea specific reason why there is a light grey line on top? That completely obscures my title bar.

Else I like the simplicity! Would be nice to have wind speeds in km/h as well.

And if you are looking for features to implement, having a persistent task bar icon that shows the current temperature is my personal must-have.

Hey, thanks for checking it out and giving feedback!

Can you attach a photo of the grey line and what model you're using? I'll see if I can reproduce and fix it.

Adding the wind speed option should be easy, I'll try adding that in the next release, probably around the end of December when I have some downtime.

I will also see how to implement a persistent task bar icon, I haven't done that before, but feel it would be useful for sure.

Again, thanks for the feedback!

Sure, here you go: https://imgur.com/a/pkAwdqy

In the screenshot my title bar is still vaguely visible, on screen with a higher brightness setting it's next to invisible. You can actually barely make out the temperate icon from geometric weather there.

I'm using a OnePlus 10 pro on Android 12, with Nova Launcher installed, in case that makes a difference.

Thanks. I'm actually just changed some of the colors and will be working on better col9rs, so thank you for that feedback.

I was also able to get the kilometers per hour on the settings page the current release, so it should be available in the play store soon.

Again, thank you!

Awesome, thanks a lot! I'll wait for the update then, not currently available here. Guess it's a staged rollout.

I like wX on F-Droid.

Just had a look, seems to be US only.
