# Tiny Weather vs Weather

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Weather at none against Tiny Weather's 3. Weather also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Tiny Weather's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 5 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tiny Weather sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Weather asks for nothing beyond the download.

Weather holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tiny Weather has 151 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Tiny Weather ships an update every 4 weeks, Weather every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
