# AIM Weather vs Blue Days

The clearest difference is ads: Blue Days at none against AIM Weather's shown. Blue Days also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 15 months). AIM Weather's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.2). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AIM Weather sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per year and Blue Days sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

AIM Weather holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 154 and 238 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of AIM Weather's written reviews are positive against 44% of Blue Days's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

AIM Weather ships an update every 15 months, Blue Days fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
