Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Icon Skins Maker at 78% against Widgets Maker's 28%. Icon Skins Maker also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 14.0). Widgets Maker's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 3.8) and update cadence (every 11 days vs every 2 months). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Widgets Maker holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 253 and 203 respectively.
