# Only Widgets vs LockStart

The clearest difference is ads: LockStart at none against Only Widgets's shown. LockStart also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Only Widgets sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and LockStart sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Only Widgets ships an update every 2 months, LockStart every 6 days. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
