[solved] Android weather app needed /for offline use/. Or does it already exist? (sopuli.xyz)

There is only one FOSS weather app that claims to function offline, and it is broken. The f-droid.org repo shows many weather apps but none state that they work offline. It would be very useful to be able to quickly fetch the weather forecast when connecting to a hotspot, and then to later be able to view the latest forecast that was fetched. Because not everyone has a data plan or has continuous connectivity.

Anyone know of an Android weather app that can do that?

Breezy Weather satisfies my needs. Thanks for the feedback folks!

"Breezy weather" seems to work for me offline.

Thanks! But I should have mentioned that I need the forecast for the week ahead. It seems to only cover the current day.

(edit) Sorry, I was wrong.. The daily forecast goes ~~4~~ ~10 days out. That’s good enough.
