Verdict
The clearest difference is price: WeatherExt at Free against Dans Quick Weather's $0.99. WeatherExt also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.6). Dans Quick Weather's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
