# Widgets Maker vs Widget PLUS+

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.

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.
