FOSS air quality app/widget?

Hi guys!

Just that...is there any FOSS app I could use to get the air pollution (AQI level) or similar for my area?

Thanks!

Breezy Weather has pretty good widgets that also show AQI data. You can download it from F-Droid, just add the IzzyOnDroid repository.

Thanks a lot, just what I needed! I'd like to rearrange the air quality to show first, but i guess this still works fine. Thank you!

I probably spent 15 minutes looking for some option to only show AQI data or to make it bigger or something like that, but I couldn't find anything.

Thank you for trying... I also did 😅 At least it seems to be the only FOSS option so far.

Thank you for the recommendation. One of the best foss weather apps I've seen and with widgets too.

I can't explain how grateful I am for your recommendation. I've been on the lookout for a good and easy to understand weather app for a very long time. Breezy weather is absolutely perfect. The widgets absolute nail it and the interface reminds me of weather timeline in its straightforward approach. Thank you again, I wanted to donate to the project but they don't seem to be asking for donations :(

Usually there are web sites for that if you just want regional measurements. I thought you wanted a hardware sensor. Look at airgradient.com for stuff like that.

Yes, but i wanted a widget on my home screen that i could quickly check at a glance.
