Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Widget Template at none against Themes's shown. Themes's advantage is ratings volume (2.1K vs 27) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Widget Template sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Themes sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for Widget Template against 4.5 for Themes. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Themes has 2.1K ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 25% of Widget Template's written reviews are positive against 19% of Themes's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Widget Template ships an update every 6 weeks, Themes every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
