Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: MeteoSwiss at none against Weather +ㅤ's shown. MeteoSwiss also leads on chart position (#89 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). Weather +ㅤ's advantage is review sentiment (76% vs 62%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
