Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Watch Faces & Widgets Gallery at none against Watch Faces's shown. Watch Faces & Widgets Gallery also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (18K vs 5.7K). Watch Faces's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks) and review sentiment (52% vs 39%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support 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. Watch Faces sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Watch Faces & Widgets Gallery sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Watch Faces & Widgets Gallery holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5.7K and 18K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 52% of Watch Faces's written reviews are positive against 39% of Watch Faces & Widgets Gallery's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Watch Faces ships an update every 8 days, Watch Faces & Widgets Gallery every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
