Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Widgets 27 at none against Contacts Widget & Manager's shown. Widgets 27 also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (1.3K vs 92). Contacts Widget & Manager's advantage is review sentiment (64% vs 41%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Widgets 27 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Widgets 27 has 1.3K ratings behind it against 92, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Contacts Widget & Manager's written reviews are positive against 41% of Widgets 27's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Contacts Widget & Manager ships an update every 2 weeks, Widgets 27 every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
