Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Gallery Wall Widget at none against Flip Clock's 3. Gallery Wall Widget also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (86% vs 72%). Flip Clock's advantage is ratings volume (70K vs 168) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, rating, update cadence and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Flip Clock holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flip Clock has 70K ratings behind it against 168, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Flip Clock's written reviews are positive against 86% of Gallery Wall Widget's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Flip Clock ships an update every 3 weeks, Gallery Wall Widget every 4 weeks. Both last shipped on October 20, 2026.
