Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Swifty Forecast at none against Tiny Weather's 3. Swifty Forecast also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 4 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Tiny Weather's advantage is review sentiment (97% vs 75%) and ratings volume (151 vs 3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Swifty Forecast holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tiny Weather has 151 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Swifty Forecast's written reviews are positive against 97% of Tiny Weather's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Swifty Forecast ships an update every 5 days, Tiny Weather every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
