# Nova Standby vs Widget Kit

The clearest difference is rating: Widget Kit at 5.0 against Nova Standby's 4.0. Nova Standby's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Nova Standby sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Widget Kit sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Widget Kit holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 2 respectively.
