Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Alook Widget at 4.3 against ToolManager's 3.2. Alook Widget also leads on ratings volume (156 vs 5). ToolManager's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Alook Widget holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Alook Widget has 156 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of ToolManager's written reviews are positive against 62% of Alook Widget's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ToolManager ships an update fortnightly, Alook Widget every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on June 22, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
