Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Transparent Widget at 3.7 against Quotes Widgets's 3.0. Transparent Widget also leads on ratings volume (51 vs 1). Quotes Widgets's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Quotes Widgets sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Transparent Widget sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Transparent Widget holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Transparent Widget has 51 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Quotes Widgets's written reviews are positive against 46% of Transparent Widget's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Quotes Widgets ships an update fortnightly, Transparent Widget every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 7, 2026.
