Web Widget holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 10 and 6 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Web Widget's written reviews are positive against 50% of Widget Construction Set's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
