Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: datasphere mobile at none against WeatherLink's shown. datasphere mobile also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). WeatherLink's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 18 months) and chart position (#130 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
