# Events Countdown Tracker vs Countdown Widgets

The clearest difference is rating: Countdown Widgets at 4.5 against Events Countdown Tracker's 3.8. Countdown Widgets also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). Events Countdown Tracker's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 90%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Events Countdown Tracker sells 1 one-off in-app purchase 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 Widgets holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Countdown Widgets has 44 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Events Countdown Tracker'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.

Events Countdown Tracker ships an update every 4 months, Countdown Widgets monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and August 19, 2026 respectively.
