icon RoadTripRadar is a map app prioritizing situational awareness and weather. Live weather radar imagery on an interactive map, helping you see precipitation along your direction of travel at a glance.

Features:
- Distance rings centered on your location that adapt to zoom level.
- Navigate using bearing to your destination instead of rigid turn-by-turn instructions. Perfect for explorers and people who like to wander!
- Live animated weather radar from RainViewer with adjustable opacity and playback controls. Perfect for motorcyclists who want notice to reroute around a storm or gear up.
- Wind speed and direction
- Temperature and 1-hour trend
- Multiple map styles: Light, Dark, Auto, and custom colors for either.
- Speed readout with metric and imperial units, adjustable font size.
- Open source, no tracking, no accounts, no ads.

WhatsNew:

First launch tutorial, and fix a bug preventing the use of approximate gps location (Thanks Chris L).

anti Anti-Features:
  • NonFreeNet (this application promotes/depends a non-Free network service):
    ⇒ Depends on Rain Viewer (https://www.rainviewer.com) for weather radar
  • TetheredNet (This app is bound to a certain network service):
    ⇒ Depends on Open-Meteo (https://open-meteo.com) for weather forecasts; Rain Viewer (https://www.rainviewer.com) for weather radar metadata and animated radar map tiles; OpenFreeMap (https://openfreemap.org) for base map styles, vector tiles, fonts, and sprites; Postpass (https://postpass.geofabrik.de) for nearby points of interest—Geofabrik’s SQL API over OpenStreetMap-derived data (the same map database behind community POI queries; see the Overpass API overview at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Overpass_API). The app calls Postpass at https://postpass.geofabrik.de/api/0.2/interpreter. Photon (https://photon.komoot.io) powers search / geocoding (turning place names and addresses into map locations).

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device.
