Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Photo Widget ‧ at none against iWidget's shown. Photo Widget ‧ also leads on rating (4.1 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (35 vs 3). iWidget's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support 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. Photo Widget ‧ sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and iWidget sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Photo Widget ‧ holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Photo Widget ‧ has 35 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Photo Widget ‧ ships an update every 4 months, iWidget fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
