ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Anemometer holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Anemometer has 43 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of Wind & Weather Meter'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

Wind & Weather Meter ships an update every 3 months, Anemometer every 4 months. Both last shipped on September 22, 2026.
