I'd like to track hurricanes. All the apps I see collect all kinds of personal data. I just go to NOAA to see the advisories, but wondering if there is something better.

Edit: OS is Android 14 Edit: looking for radar (probably) or some other feature to track hurricanes (I don't know what tools there are besides radar, but if there's something else I'm interested).

Hmm, the app on google play store says it collects no information and shares no information with third parties. I'm hopeful about this one.

---actually, looks like a nice general weather app, but doesn't have hurricane tracking features
