Adapte

Stay one step ahead of dangerous weather and air quality hazards with Adapte!

Stay ahead of dangerous heat, storms, and air quality hazards with focused alerts instead of noise.

Adapte provides detailed forecasts, hazard warnings for temperature and air quality, and map overlays for conditions like rain, wind, and pressure, with support for multiple languages and units. It is built to be free and privacy-respecting, with settings stored on your device instead of in the cloud.

Why Adapte?
FREE: We made this app in response to the India heat wave scenario in the book Ministry for the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson, so we want it to be as accessible as possible to save lives. I hate ads and how psyops has become synonymous with advertising. The primary developer is retired. So while he has a say, this app is as free as it gets.

Prioritizes Your Safety: Receive timely warnings for hazardous temperature conditions, poor air quality, and US weather alerts. Adapte ensures you’re informed when conditions become risky.

Privacy First: No personal data is collected or stored – only your chosen settings remain on your device. With no ads or tracking services, your information stays private. We believe data privacy is a human right and code our apps with that in mind.

Customizable Experience: Choose between unique themes, light or dark mode, and adjust text sizing to suit your preferences. Plus, enjoy multi-language support in English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese. Note that as a free app we have had to rely on text translator software, so until we can afford live translators some translations may be confusing... or amusing.
