Verdict

The call

Pixel Widget and Widgets 27 both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 86% of Pixel Widget's written reviews are positive against 41% of Widgets 27's. Pixel Widget also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and device support (3 vs 1). Widgets 27's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 7). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pixel Widget sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Widgets 27 sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Widgets 27 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Widgets 27 has 1.3K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of Pixel Widget's written reviews are positive against 41% of Widgets 27's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Pixel Widget ships an update every 2 weeks, Widgets 27 every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
