Best weather app

[danootz]

Is there any app or something that will place weather information ONLY in the slide down notification tray? Weather Channel comes so close, but I'd rather not have the blue icon on the top bar.

weather bug does this. Just as elongated as you have it running in the background.

No memory/battery sucking issues with weatherbug? I thought I read a review like that but it might have been an old review.

(For some reason I associate weatherbug with spyware ;P but i'm willing to try it if it has the function i described)

I've used Beautiful Widgets ever since I got my droid. The only thing that drives me nuts is the little big of lag I get sometimes when I wake my phone up and that widget is the last one to load up. I don't use a task killer either. Other than that I love it. I have heard good thing about weather widgets donate though too so I may try that out.

As far as real weather widgets that let you see radar, extended forcasts, etc. I've currently got both Palmary and WB elite on my droid. I like the layout of Palmary alot, and my only real complaint other than not having a widget is that I wish there was a way to turn off the airports view and maybe put a button to view the Radar up there instead. I don't fly too much so having the airports as such a prominent view doesn't benefit me very often.

I like WB Elite, the overall layout and functionality is nice, plus it integrates using google maps so when you see the radar and satellite animations it's pretty cool to see it with maps.

I was using the Weather Channel App until today. We had some winds, and receiving audible alerts on my phone was a deal breaker since there seems to be no way to turn them off. Very stupid for them not to let us turn that off. Using weather bug for now, but I think I may get Beautiful Widgets.

In settings you can control what alerts you want to get.

I also like the different widget options.

Also soneone asked about animated radar. The Weather Channel app does have animated radar. Press Map It → Play to animate the maps.

I use WeatherBug Elite and the basic HTC sense weather on my Incredible. They both seem to be great. WeatherBug is definitely more in depth though, as expected.

I tried to use Weatherbug Elite since its on my Ipod and I like it but, when I tried it it was over a month ago and "FC" on me enough I removed it still within the 24 hr trial period so wasn't charged for it.I been using weather channel free since no problem with it.The blue icon weather channel shows on your notification bar turns to a red icon when your server weather notifications are turned on
I have used "rainydays"radar but its just a radar nothing more and I wanted more

Weatherbug is always a popular choice by many. I'm liking Beautiful Widgets.

Weatherbug is a good app for detailed weather. The deafult HTC Sense weather app is also good for quick overview.

The Weather channel app is good but I uninstalled because there was no setting for Celsius temperate measurement.

Beautiful widgets looks the best I think with hundreds of skins. Weather bug is more accurate so I have that open when I tap on the 5 say in BW. Best of both worlds.

Found A Good Weather App

I used to have weatherchannel app and tried the accuweather app as well. I just seemed to always have problems getting the times and weather in sync. The latest I downloaded has not given me any problems at all. So far so good!
