Weather Text
Read full descriptionHide full description
Weather Text is a small watchOS app that puts a short summary of today's weather on your Apple Watch face or in the Smart Stack. It shows the current temperature and conditions, today's high and low, and the next sunrise or sunset. When there is a severe weather alert, the alert takes the place of the sunrise or sunset line. An optional Work Weather setting can point out a meaningful difference at your work location on workday mornings, such as rain or a high temperature that is at least 10 degrees warmer or cooler. Open the app on your watch to grant location access, preview the weather summary, and change settings. Weather Text requires an Apple Watch, location access, and an internet connection. It has no accounts, ads, analytics, or in-app purchases.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Weather Text at every 5 days against PréviCA's every 2 months. Weather Text also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
