Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: iWallpaper at free with in-app purchases against Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen's subscription. iWallpaper also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 41%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 weeks). Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen's advantage is ratings volume (523 vs 15) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and iWallpaper sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen has 523 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen's written reviews are positive against 67% of iWallpaper's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen ships an update every 4 weeks, iWallpaper every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
