# Countdown vs Countdown & Widget

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Countdown at 26 against Countdown & Widget's 1. On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Countdown sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Countdown & Widget sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Countdown & Widget holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Countdown has 26 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
