Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: LockWidget at 4.5 against ScreenKit's 3.9. LockWidget also leads on review sentiment (56% vs 16%) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). ScreenKit's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
