# WeatherSpork vs CloudPath

The clearest difference is rating: CloudPath at 5.0 against WeatherSpork's 4.2. CloudPath also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). WeatherSpork's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly) and ratings volume (54 vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WeatherSpork sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and CloudPath sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

CloudPath holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WeatherSpork has 54 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 67% of WeatherSpork's written reviews are positive against 100% of CloudPath's.

WeatherSpork ships an update every 4 days, CloudPath fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
