# Ambient Weather Network vs 2 kool

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 2 kool at none against Ambient Weather Network's 4. 2 kool also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Ambient Weather Network's advantage is ratings volume (14K vs 2) and chart position (#46 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ambient Weather Network sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. 2 kool asks for nothing beyond the download.
