Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Colored Note at 4.7 against Widget Maker's 3.9. Colored Note also leads on ratings volume (5K vs 14). Widget Maker's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 54%) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Colored Note holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Colored Note has 5K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Colored Note's written reviews are positive against 67% of Widget Maker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Colored Note ships an update weekly, Widget Maker every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
