I want to receive an alert whenever there is a freeze or frost advisory in my area, so I can know when to cover my plants. I would assume there is an app for that, but there are dozens weather apps, and all their features are not listed.
Ideally, I just need something like this Android app:

Many apps offer weather alerts, but I don't want to get alerts for all inclement weather, just cold weather, and none made it clear that this is possible. Paid or free is fine. Thanks!

I recommend the Weather Underground app. I use it a lot for weather information (for which it seems to have the most conclusive collection, and I also use it's excellent alerts.
One can choose any combination, from a complete list of warnings, which alerts to be notified of. You can also limit alerts to only notify you between certain times of the day.
I just confirmed, however, that it doesn't have an exclusive "Freeze Warning" alert that can be turned off and on. It has "Special Weather Statements", and "Winter Advisories", which would probably function that way. However, the "Winter Advisories" indicates that it is for accumulation type wintry precipitation.
It is a free app and very easy to configure those notifications. It has ads which can be disabled with a subscription, but those are irrelevant to push alerts.
