# Countdown Widgets vs Countify

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Countdown Widgets at 90% against Countify's 40%. Countdown Widgets also leads on rating (4.5 vs 2.7) and ratings volume (44 vs 6). Countify's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs monthly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Countdown Widgets sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Countify sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
