Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Counter Widget at none against Countr's 5. Counter Widget also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4). Countr's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Countr sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.69 per month. Counter Widget asks for nothing beyond the download.
Counter Widget holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 48 and 33 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Countr's written reviews are positive against 60% of Counter Widget's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Countr ships an update every 5 weeks, Counter Widget every 3 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
