# Photo Widget ‧ vs OC

The clearest difference is ads: Photo Widget ‧ at none against OC's shown. Photo Widget ‧ also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 70%) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). OC's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 4 months) and rating (4.4 vs 4.1). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Photo Widget ‧ sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and OC sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.69 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

OC holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 35 and 22 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Photo Widget ‧'s written reviews are positive against 70% of OC's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Photo Widget ‧ ships an update every 4 months, OC every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
