Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. GoWidget| Photo Widgets &Theme sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Lock Screen Widgets sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Lock Screen Widgets holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 171 and 107 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of GoWidget| Photo Widgets &Theme's written reviews are positive against 33% of Lock Screen Widgets's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
GoWidget| Photo Widgets &Theme ships an update every 4 weeks, Lock Screen Widgets every 4 days. Both last shipped on October 15, 2026.
