TinyCelsius keeps current weather small, readable, and always nearby. See Celsius and Fahrenheit together without mental conversion. On Mac, TinyCelsius lives in the menu bar near the clock. On iPhone, it gives you a simple weather view and widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen. Use your current location or set a city. TinyCelsius loads live weather, shows the current condition, and lets you choose whether Celsius or Fahrenheit appears first. On Mac, you can keep the menu bar item compact, show or hide the condition icon, and refresh from the panel. On iOS, widgets can show the latest temperature pair and optional refresh time. Features: * Celsius and Fahrenheit side by side * Current location or pinned city * Mac menu bar weather item * iPhone Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets * Weather condition symbol and update time * Unit order, decimal, and compact menu bar controls * Local weather powered by WeatherKit TinyCelsius is intentionally focused: current conditions, quick reading, and no account to manage. All data is on device and using Apple Weather for realtime weather information – we don't have access to your location at any time.

SkyVex is a complete weather app with nothing held back. Every feature is free — there is no subscription and no in-app purchases. MINUTE-BY-MINUTE RAIN Know exactly when rain starts and when it stops. The Rain tab shows the next four hours minute by minute, with the time until rain begins or clears and the peak intensity. Drag across the chart to inspect any moment. ALERTS THAT WORK EVERYWHERE Official government severe-weather warnings where they are published, plus SkyVex's own hazard alerts calculated from high-resolution forecast data — thunderstorms, damaging winds, torrential rain, heavy snow, freezing rain, dense fog and extremes of heat and cold. Those forecast hazards are computed worldwide, including in countries where no official warning feed is available. YOUR OWN ALERTS Build custom rules — wind above 40 km/h, temperature below freezing, heavy rain on the way — and get a notification when the forecast crosses your threshold. COMPARE THE FORECAST MODELS See GFS, ECMWF and ICON side by side for temperature, precipitation and wind. Where the models disagree, confidence is lower, and SkyVex marks those days so you can plan around the uncertainty. THE FULL PICTURE • Current conditions, 48-hour hourly and 8-day daily forecasts • Air quality, with a pollutant breakdown and forecast • Sun and UV, including golden hour and daylight length • Flood risk based on river discharge data • Marine and beach conditions for coastal locations • Pollen forecast (Europe) DESIGNED TO BE READ AT A GLANCE A dark, focused interface where the sky above the forecast takes on the colour of the current conditions. Numbers are set in aligned figures so columns stay steady, and nothing is hidden behind a paywall. Save as many locations as you like, switch between them with a swipe, and choose metric or imperial units. SkyVex is free and supported by occasional ads. Weather data from Open-Meteo, Rainbow.ai and Apple Weather.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: TinyCelsius at none against SkyVex Weather's shown. SkyVex Weather's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
