# Thermometer vs Weather +ㅤ

Thermometer and Weather +ㅤ both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 87% of Thermometer's written reviews are positive against 76% of Weather +ㅤ's. Thermometer also leads on device support (3 vs 1). Weather +ㅤ's advantage is ratings volume (857 vs 132). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Thermometer sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.09 per month and Weather +ㅤ sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Thermometer against 4.7 for Weather +ㅤ. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Weather +ㅤ has 857 ratings behind it against 132, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 87% of Thermometer's written reviews are positive against 76% of Weather +ㅤ's.

Thermometer ships an update every 3 weeks, Weather +ㅤ fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 13, 2026 and November 14, 2026 respectively.
