1. Meteor
You may already have this app, because it can be used daily and anywhere. But you‘ll find it really indispensable on hikes. It displays a map of current precipitation recorded by a meteor radar in the Czech Republic. It will show you where it‘s raining, if you‘re about to be hit by a storm and you‘ll also see how long it‘s expected to last. And that‘s always useful!
2. WiFi: WiFi Map and Password
This application will enable you to get online more often than you otherwise could! Its purpose is to search for wifi networks in your current location, including passwords. You can also add hitherto unknown passwords to wifis you‘ve found and rate them. The only downside is that the owner can change the password and the old one remains in the application. Another app similar to this one is WiFi Map, which works on the same principle.
