Accuweather is a conservative controlled scam-for-profit company and the NWS is under conservative control now as well. Conservatives absolutely despise science, so we should trust absolutely nothing produced by these entities anymore.

    Anecdotal but my phone battery life has been greatly improved since I disabled Google Maps. I was hitting the 20% warning routinely before end of day previously, and now I typically have 30-40% when I plug it in at night.

    On a related note, MapQuest offers Android Auto integration, and the turn-by-turn experience has been adequate in my admittedly limited testing.

    YMMV.

    It's a truism amongst gapps-free ROM and also all sorts of adblock users.

    And yea, OSM has vastly improved in the past decade to the point that it's just as - if not more - reliable as Google's maps.

    Disclaimer: people pointing out the convenience of Google products will be ridiculed. Even traffic jam prediction.

    We need to report the error. Daily.

    I've had AccuWeather forever, what's decent out there?

    I vouch for Breezy. Been using it for years. It's very easy to use and clear and I think more accurate than a lot of my friends phones. Though that depends on your weather source.

    Breezy is fantastic and works with gadgetbridge if you have something like a bangle.js
