Verdict

The call

WidgetDaily and Lock Screen Widgets App both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 80% of WidgetDaily's written reviews are positive against 29% of Lock Screen Widgets App's. WidgetDaily also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). Lock Screen Widgets App's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 10). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
