Widget Plus+ is a fantastic, free app for customizing your iPhone. It’s a multifunctional solution that includes handy widgets for the "with-it" generation. The app automatically detects your location, always provides up-to-date weather info, and displays the local time as well as the exact times for sunrise and sunset. Plus, the widget shows all your active alarms, your health stats, your battery level, events on your calendar, and lots of other useful information to meet your needs throughout the day. For example, our widgets could show you the weather forecast when you're getting dressed for work and your calendar at the end of the day so you know what's going on tomorrow.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Widgets Maker at 4.3 against Widget PLUS+'s 3.8. Widgets Maker also leads on ratings volume (221 vs 27). Widget PLUS+'s advantage is review sentiment (48% vs 28%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Widgets Maker sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and Widget PLUS+ sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Widgets Maker holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Widgets Maker has 221 ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Widgets Maker's written reviews are positive against 48% of Widget PLUS+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Widgets Maker ships an update every 11 days, Widget PLUS+ weekly. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
