# Windfinder vs MeteoCasting

The clearest difference is ads: MeteoCasting at none against Windfinder's shown. MeteoCasting also leads on iOS requirement (14.0.0 vs 16.0). Windfinder's advantage is chart position (#44 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Windfinder sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and MeteoCasting sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
