# MyScreen vs Watch Faces

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Watch Faces at 91% against MyScreen's 56%. Watch Faces also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). MyScreen's advantage is ratings volume (310K vs 1.9K) and chart position (#73 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MyScreen sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Watch Faces sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Watch Faces holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MyScreen has 310K ratings behind it against 1.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 56% of MyScreen's written reviews are positive against 91% of Watch Faces's.

MyScreen ships an update every 3 weeks, Watch Faces monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
