# Storm Tracker° vs UV Report

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 (#55 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

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.
