ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ApowerWidgets holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Notepad Sanrio characters has 1.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of ApowerWidgets's written reviews are positive against 81% of Notepad Sanrio characters's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ApowerWidgets ships an update every 3 weeks, Notepad Sanrio characters every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
