# Clock Widget vs Clock Widget with Seconds Live

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Clock Widget at 100% against Clock Widget with Seconds Live's 24%. Clock Widget also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). Clock Widget with Seconds Live's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.1). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clock Widget sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Clock Widget with Seconds Live sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Clock Widget with Seconds Live holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 29 and 42 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Clock Widget's written reviews are positive against 24% of Clock Widget with Seconds Live's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
