# Weather ++++ vs Weather Widgets

The clearest difference is monetization model: Weather Widgets at free with in-app purchases against Weather ++++'s subscription. Weather Widgets also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Weather ++++'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (190 vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Weather ++++ sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Weather Widgets sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Weather Widgets holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Weather ++++ has 190 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Weather ++++ ships an update fortnightly, Weather Widgets every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
