About Hong Kong Rain Radar & Reports APK
Table Of Contents
Description
Thunderstorms are common in certain times of the year in Hong Kong. While I am outside hiking or cycling I like to be able to predict when a rainstorm is going to hit so I can take shelter. I don't like to get rained on. To help me predict when rainstorms are going to come, I have become heavily reliant on the rain radar from the Hong Kong Observatory (HKO). Their radar is provided to their end users in at-least 2 ways: via a specialized application that can be installed on your phone or via their website. I found that both of these ways do not work too well when I am out on the go. I cannot get the HKO application to work well on newer Android devices; and this app suffers from feature bloat. The website is not very usable on a phone browser. All I wanted was an easy and fast way to access the HKO Rain Radar without the feature bloat of the application and without the usability issues of the website. All I wanted was a no-frills light application that will help me download and display the current rain radar from the HKO. The result is this application. Its goal is to be fast and usable so you can quickly and easily tell when rain is coming. This application allows you to view radar imagery and forecasts via the app itself, home screen widgets, periodic notifications, or a live wallpaper.How to install Hong Kong Rain Radar & Reports APK on Android phone or tablet?

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
