Yeah, I was just curious if the app could harvest it anyway via the SDK or something.

the weather app can’t. Your cell provider can without any phone permissions. Google/Apple secretly could as well. These companies love your government more than they love you.

I’m not the person who posted the widget issue, but IME many FOSS solutions (not just weather-related) are more often than not aesthetically/UX crap.

Many phones come with a weather app you can neither uninstall nor disable.
