Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Alive Widgets at 90% against Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen's 41%. Alive Widgets also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (weekly vs every 4 weeks). Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 3.7) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
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. Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Alive Widgets sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen has 538 ratings behind it against 3, 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 90% of Alive Widgets's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Live Wallpapers 27 Lock Screen ships an update every 4 weeks, Alive Widgets weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 14, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
