The Android version of Flying Calmly has been published! It is developed by the iOS team of Rain Alarm. Give it a try and let us know what you think!
Unfortunately we had to abandon our Firefox add-on as became too restrictive to be able to provide a good user experience anymore. Also their review process is very subjective with an unpredictable outcome for every submission. (1/2)
Additionally we have better data now for Germany, the Netherlands, and Norway. And we are very proud to add support for Poland and Sweden!

(MD)
(1/2) 🇲🇾 The current coverage for the Klang Valley in Malaysia is limited at the moment. This is because the weather radar at Kuala Lumpur International Airport is not available. This means it is either broken and being repaired or it is being maintained.
I was thinking the same! Was checking 2 hours before the planned launch and already wondered why they keep going ahead despite rain and thunderstorms nearby. (MD)

This app will make you aware of when you keep using certain apps for too long. I call this a Mind Leak. When it happens, the app will show you yourself staring into the phone (or a video or a meme) as a reminder that your mind leaked. Simple but effective!
