# Widgetal vs Dynamic X

The clearest difference is rating: Widgetal at 4.4 against Dynamic X's 3.9. Widgetal also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 9 months). Dynamic X's advantage is review sentiment (32% vs 21%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Widgetal sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per 3 months and Dynamic X sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Widgetal holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Widgetal has 589 ratings behind it against 61, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of Widgetal's written reviews are positive against 32% of Dynamic X's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Widgetal ships an update every 3 weeks, Dynamic X every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
