Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Widget Toolbox at 88% against Art Widget+'s 38%. Widget Toolbox also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). Art Widget+'s advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (142 vs 35). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
