Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: OneWidget at 4.5 against Chameleon's 3.9. OneWidget also leads on ratings volume (222 vs 37). Chameleon's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. OneWidget sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Chameleon sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

OneWidget holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OneWidget has 222 ratings behind it against 37, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of OneWidget's written reviews are positive against 55% of Chameleon's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

OneWidget ships an update every 3 weeks, Chameleon every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
