Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: WeatherAlarm Notifier at 100% against Storm Tracker°'s 46%. WeatherAlarm Notifier also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months). Storm Tracker°'s advantage is ratings volume (82K vs 59) and rating (4.6 vs 4.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Storm Tracker° holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Storm Tracker° has 82K ratings behind it against 59, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of Storm Tracker°'s written reviews are positive against 100% of WeatherAlarm Notifier's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Storm Tracker° ships an update every 2 months, WeatherAlarm Notifier every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
