# Blue Days vs WeatherRadar Basic

The clearest difference is rating: Blue Days at 4.2 against WeatherRadar Basic's 2.3. Blue Days also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (239 vs 3). WeatherRadar Basic's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and review sentiment (67% vs 44%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Blue Days sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per year. WeatherRadar Basic asks for nothing beyond the download.

Blue Days holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Blue Days has 239 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of Blue Days's written reviews are positive against 67% of WeatherRadar Basic's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Blue Days ships an update fortnightly, WeatherRadar Basic every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
