Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Watch Faces Gallery at Free against Imagez's $1.99. Watch Faces Gallery also leads on rating (4.5 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (580 vs 97). Imagez's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 7) and ads (none vs shown). On update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Watch Faces Gallery holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Watch Faces Gallery has 580 ratings behind it against 97, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 37% of Imagez's written reviews are positive against 24% of Watch Faces Gallery's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 10 days. Both last shipped on November 7, 2026.
