Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: AIM Weather at 4.4 against Weather Gauge's 1.0. AIM Weather also leads on ratings volume (154 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Weather Gauge's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
