How/why is it "for" the Pixel 9? Unless it has some specific hardware requirement then any app should be able to run on any (new-ish) Android device, right?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Just how google does stuff. Releases only for current gen then older gen and then to all android. Fyi, I'm running it on my s24+

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

It's shipping with the Pixel 9 by default.

Looks like the Samsung weather app

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I thought so too. I just looked at mine and it is very similar but not identical.

Overall, yes. Same same, but different..... But still same.

Ah, they finally killed the frog. Maybe the one last bit of fun left in a google product. RIP

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I think the frog has been killed for a little while now, it's not in my current Google Weather app. Just some semi-creepy gifs of people.

Still there on my mine on my Pixel 8. Well, most of the time. Sometimes it doesn't have any accompanying image.

Google absolutely stole the design lol.

I love breezy

Shame climate change has rendered it about as useful as looking out the window at predicting the weather.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Ngl, this looks really nice.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

Like every other fucking weather app πŸ™„nobody gives a shit, they all use the same databases.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago

Wow, that's a major selling point!
