Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: CroForecast at 5.0 against Barometer's 4.5. CroForecast also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). Barometer's advantage is ratings volume (144 vs 2) and chart position (#21 vs unranked). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
