# ProWeatherLive vs PWS Console

The clearest difference is rating: PWS Console at 4.0 against ProWeatherLive's 1.8. ProWeatherLive's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PWS Console sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. ProWeatherLive asks for nothing beyond the download.

PWS Console holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 1.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ProWeatherLive has 14 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of ProWeatherLive's written reviews are positive against 20% of PWS Console's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

ProWeatherLive ships an update monthly, PWS Console every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
