Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Degrees Converter at none against Barometer's 1. Degrees Converter also leads on price ($0.99 vs $2.99) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.0). Barometer's advantage is update cadence (every 4 months vs every 20 months) and chart position (#97 vs unranked). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
