Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Top Four at every 4 days against Lock + Home Widgets widgetopia's every 2 months. Top Four also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5). Lock + Home Widgets widgetopia's advantage is ratings volume (8.6K vs 35) and review sentiment (61% vs 50%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Top Four holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lock + Home Widgets widgetopia has 8.6K ratings behind it against 35, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Lock + Home Widgets widgetopia's written reviews are positive against 50% of Top Four's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Lock + Home Widgets widgetopia ships an update every 2 months, Top Four every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and August 13, 2026 respectively.
