Times change, and so do the applications for our Android mobile. Like life itself, the traditional section of Google Weather has given way to its evolution, with clear influences from Material You and adapted to the design lines of Android 14.
However, even though the official mascot of this app is still present, you may miss the old interface. In the current we see the information more clearly but there will always be those who understand it better with the previous one. You can recover it, but for that you need to download an application that perfectly imitates it.
Here is Frog Weather, a copy of the old Google Weather
That Google continues to update its applications to offer them better functions and a more careful aesthetic section is not something new. This is what happened to all “Google Apps” when Android 12 launched Material You, and we continue to receive new updates that change the interface today.
In reality, the “new” Google Time hasn’t been on our Android phones and devices for too long (forgive the redundancy), as it arrived gradually mid to late last year. Now though, we love the new interface, but as they say “it never rains to everyone’s liking”. Don’t worry, Frog Weather She is your savior.
This application copies the old appearance of the Google Time with a very convincing result. We have a main screen organized into three tabs: “Today”, “Tomorrow” and “10 days”, as in the past. They provide access to forecasts for different periods.
Then, the “hamburger menu”, the one with the three horizontal lines that appears in the upper left corner, gives us access to the settings, a button to refresh the weather and a curious Weather map where we will see the evolution of the clouds or winds throughout the day.
As we said, the beloved and adorable little frog returns to his origins by posing in different settings. If we scroll while we have it on the screen, we will access the detailed forecast, which informs us about different parameters: humidity, pressure, UV index, visibility and comprehensive reports on rain and wind.
It also provides information on air quality and about sunrise and sunset. As in other similar applications, it can detect our location so that we do not have to enter it manually when we change our position.
Frog weather are completely free, although it shows advertisements. You can eliminate them by paying for the app, although in our tests they didn’t bother us. Additionally, no features are saved for paid users, another reason to use it. You can download it to your Android mobile from the link to the Play Store that we leave below.
