Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Share Widget at none against Widgets Maker's shown. Share Widget also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence 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

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Widgets Maker sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and Share Widget sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Share Widget holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 203 and 92 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Widgets Maker's written reviews are positive against 25% of Share Widget's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Widgets Maker ships an update every 11 days, Share Widget every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
