Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Thermo at 77% against Anemometer's 18%. Thermo also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 4 months). Anemometer's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.7) and price ($2.99 vs $3.99). On ads, monetization model, chart position and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Anemometer holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Thermo has 1.9K ratings behind it against 47, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of Thermo's written reviews are positive against 18% of Anemometer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Thermo ships an update every 6 days, Anemometer every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
