Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: UV Report at 5.0 against Storm Tracker°'s 4.6. UV Report also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Storm Tracker°'s advantage is ratings volume (82K vs 1) and chart position (#58 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Storm Tracker° sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and UV Report sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
UV Report holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Storm Tracker° has 82K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Storm Tracker° ships an update every 2 months, UV Report every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
