# Flashcard Blocker vs Widget Vocabulary

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Flashcard Blocker at 100% against Widget Vocabulary's 40%. Flashcard Blocker also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Widget Vocabulary's advantage is ratings volume (486 vs 4) and chart position (#111 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Flashcard Blocker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Widget Vocabulary sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Flashcard Blocker holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Widget Vocabulary has 486 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
