Verdict

The call

My Widgets and AirWidgets both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 90% of AirWidgets's written reviews are positive against 51% of My Widgets's. AirWidgets also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). My Widgets's advantage is ratings volume (355 vs 21). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. My Widgets sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and AirWidgets sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

My Widgets holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Widgets has 355 ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of My Widgets's written reviews are positive against 90% of AirWidgets's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

My Widgets ships an update every 3 months, AirWidgets every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
