- Announcement - Make Breezy weather data available through a ContentProvider. Currently in testing phase
- #10 - “Add location” page needs a new design, in the spirit of Google Maps where you can select location points on the map, or search manually - No mockup done yet
- #937 - Widget overhaul (prerequisite for any new widget improvement) - Some mockups were done but no one is working on it anymore
- Paid-only sources, too limited free-tier, or free-tier that requires privacy-invasive information (credit card info, phone number, etc)
- Radar; please check out this document for alternatives
- Adding
standardflavor or non-free sources to the F-Droid default repo: please use thestandardflavor from a different store/source instead - Changes to the background updates process, including but not limited: options for refreshing less than every 30 minutes, every time you open the app, every time you tap on widget, every time you unlock your phone
- “Circular sky” interface: please set a fixed background per location instead
- Publish to Google Play Store: please check alternatives
- Allow different flavors to be installed in parallel
- Implement features that are no longer available in latest Android versions
- Backport features/fixes from latest Android versions to older Android versions
- Donations: if you have extra money to spare, consider donating to Open-Meteo to support infrastructure costs and future developments (we currently lack a libre and gratis worldwide alternative for the following features: Reverse geocoding, Alerts, Normals)
Translation is done externally on Weblate. Please read carefully project instructions if you want to help.
English (and regional variants) and French translations are maintained by repo maintainers, but they are open to proofreading/improvements. You will need to make a pull request, as we didn’t find a way to make these languages in suggestion-only mode in Weblate (let us know if you find anything).
For unit formatting, we use Unicode data as much as possible. If you believe there is an error, please open a discussion with evidences that the changes you suggest is the recommendation for your language.
- If you’d like to report a bug or suggest a new feature, GitHub discussions or issues are best for organization.

#breezy-weather-space:matrix.org.- If you are not comfortable writing a GitHub discussion/issue in English, you can ask on the channel if someone can help you in your language.
- We also have a dedicated help channel in French:
