Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: AWS GraphWidget at 5.0 against AWS Events's 4.6. AWS GraphWidget also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). AWS Events's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (5.3K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

AWS GraphWidget holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AWS Events has 5.3K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of AWS Events's written reviews are positive against 0% of AWS GraphWidget's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

AWS Events ships an update every 9 days, AWS GraphWidget every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
