# WidgetArt vs Only Widgets

The clearest difference is monetization model: Only Widgets at free with in-app purchases against WidgetArt's subscription. Only Widgets also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). WidgetArt's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (50 vs 3). On price, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WidgetArt sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per year and Only Widgets sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Only Widgets holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WidgetArt has 50 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

WidgetArt ships an update every 5 weeks, Only Widgets every 2 months. Both last shipped on September 22, 2026.
