Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Transparency Weather at 92% against 天气王's 50%. Transparency Weather also leads on ratings volume (51 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.6). 天气王's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and in-app purchases (none vs 3). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Transparency Weather sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.00 per month. 天气王 asks for nothing beyond the download.
天气王 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Transparency Weather has 51 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 92% of Transparency Weather's written reviews are positive against 50% of 天气王's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Transparency Weather ships an update every 6 weeks, 天气王 every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
