-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

Weather apps used location even in fucking Symbian and whatever before android, and my 2011 Android Gingerbread bread phone had that as well

If it's ONE app that has any legitimate business with my location it's weather

Weather apps being able to use GPS data is great. Weather apps shitting the bed if you don't give it permissions, when it fucking knows it has to ask for permissions, are failed products.

I will give it a location. It can tell me the weather there.
