# Widget vs Be My Widget

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Be My Widget at 100% against Widget's 58%. Be My Widget also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and rating (4.5 vs 4.3). Widget's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (101 vs 8). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Widget sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Be My Widget sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Be My Widget holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Widget has 101 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 58% of Widget's written reviews are positive against 100% of Be My Widget's.

Widget ships an update every 3 days, Be My Widget every 5 days. Both last shipped on October 23, 2026.
