Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Countdown Widget Maker at 5.6K against Countdown Widgets's 44. Countdown Widget Maker also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and device support (4 vs 2). Countdown Widgets's advantage is review sentiment (90% vs 79%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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. Countdown Widget Maker sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 3 months and Countdown Widgets sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Countdown Widget Maker holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Countdown Widget Maker has 5.6K ratings behind it against 44, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of Countdown Widget Maker's written reviews are positive against 90% of Countdown Widgets's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Countdown Widget Maker ships an update every 2 months, Countdown Widgets monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and August 19, 2026 respectively.
