Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Wind Speed Forecast App at 4.1K against iSHMU's 4. Wind Speed Forecast App also leads on review sentiment (79% vs 57%) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). iSHMU's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. iSHMU sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Wind Speed Forecast App sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
iSHMU holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wind Speed Forecast App has 4.1K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of iSHMU's written reviews are positive against 79% of Wind Speed Forecast App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
iSHMU ships an update every 3 weeks, Wind Speed Forecast App every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
