Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Counter Widget at 4.7 against Countap's 3.5. Counter Widget also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (33 vs 2). Countap's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 26.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Counter Widget holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Counter Widget has 33 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Countap's written reviews are positive against 60% of Counter Widget's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Countap ships an update fortnightly, Counter Widget every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
