# 爱主题 vs Widgetime

The clearest difference is ads: Widgetime at none against 爱主题's shown. Widgetime also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). 爱主题's advantage is ratings volume (15 vs 1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 爱主题 sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Widgetime sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for 爱主题 against 5.0 for Widgetime. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 爱主题 has 15 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

爱主题 ships an update every 2 weeks, Widgetime every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on September 2, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
