# Step Two vs WhyNot Widgets

The clearest difference is rating: Step Two at 4.5 against WhyNot Widgets's 4.0. Step Two also leads on review sentiment (86% vs 62%) and ratings volume (185 vs 17). WhyNot Widgets's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
