# Left vs WidgetAI

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Left at 73% against WidgetAI's 0%. Left also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.5) and ratings volume (429 vs 2). WidgetAI's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Left sells 28 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and WidgetAI sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Left holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Left has 429 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 73% of Left's written reviews are positive against 0% of WidgetAI's.

Left ships an update every 4 days, WidgetAI every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
