REVIEW
Dont Forget The Weather is a one-screen hourly forecast with a typo for a name.
An indie Android weather app from Ten Digit Grid that strips the category back to nine hourly variables, scrolls them sideways, and asks nothing else of you.

Most weather apps on Android open with a giant current-conditions hero — a cartoon sun, a temperature in 96-point type, a one-line summary of the day. Dont Forget The Weather doesn’t do that. It opens with a table of the next twenty-four hours and nine variables, and it expects you to read columns. That choice is the whole product.
The app is the work of a developer who lists themselves as Ten Digit Grid on the Play Store. It first appeared in February 2024 and was last updated in April 2026, which means it’s been quietly maintained for over two years without ever picking up enough Play Store reviews to surface a rating. That’s unusual for a weather app — the category is crowded with shovelware that farms ratings aggressively — and it leaves the product in an odd place. The work is honest; the discovery is invisible.
What it does well is what every weather app should do and most don’t: it treats hourly forecasting as the headline rather than the footnote. Cloud coverage and wind gusts and snow accumulation are columns, not buried tooltips. For a runner, cyclist, gardener, or dog walker, that’s the right product. For everyone else who just wants to know whether to bring an umbrella, the seven-day strip is a single screen away in any other app, and Dont Forget The Weather doesn’t try to be that.
The missing apostrophe in the title is either a charming indie quirk or a sign of what the budget allowed.
FEATURES
Dont Forget The Weather is a free Android weather app from a small developer called Ten Digit Grid, first shipped in February 2024 and quietly updated since. It does one thing: hourly forecasts, presented as a horizontally scrollable table of nine variables. Cloud coverage percentage, precipitation chance, temperature, feels-like, wind speed, wind gusts, rain accumulation, snow accumulation, snow depth.
No maps. No animated radar. No daily seven-day strip across the top of the screen. No widgets in the Play Store listing. No premium tier — the app is free with no in-app purchases visible. The pitch on the store page is one line: "Accurate Hourly Weather Forecasts at a Glance."
Forecast data appears to come from a standard meteorological API; the developer doesn't name the source on the listing, which is the kind of detail a heavier review app would disclose.
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED
The product idea is genuinely useful and almost nobody else builds it this way. Most weather apps lead with a current-conditions hero, then a seven-day strip, then a grudging hourly view buried two scrolls down. Dont Forget The Weather inverts the hierarchy — hourly is the homepage, and the next twenty-four hours are what you see when you open it.
The variable set is also better-tuned than the defaults in Google Weather or AccuWeather. Wind gusts as a first-class column matters for cyclists and dog walkers. Snow depth is a column most apps never surface. Rain accumulation in millimeters at hourly granularity is what gardeners and runners actually want.
ROOM TO IMPROVE
The app has no ratings on the Play Store — zero reviews — which means there's no public signal on reliability, accuracy, or how the forecast compares against the BBC, Apple Weather, or the Met Office. For a category where forecast accuracy is the entire product, that's a problem the developer can't fix by writing better copy.
Presentation is utilitarian. The screenshots show a dense table view with minimal typography hierarchy, no charting, and no visual cues that help you scan for the moment the rain starts. A category leader like Carrot Weather or Weather Strip puts that information into a chart so you read it in half a second; here you read columns.
And then there's the name. "Dont Forget The Weather" — no apostrophe — is either a charming indie quirk or a sign of what the budget allowed. Either way, it's the first thing the user sees.
CONCLUSION
Install this if you live for hourly granularity, hate hero screens with giant suns on them, and don't need radar. It's a tiny indie product that solves one problem cleanly and asks for nothing in return. Watch whether Ten Digit Grid adds widgets, a complication-style home-screen view, or a single small chart in the next update — any of those would lift the score meaningfully. Until then it's a useful second weather app, not a replacement for your first one.
