# World Clock Time Zone Widget vs Ora

The clearest difference is ratings volume: World Clock Time Zone Widget at 31K against Ora's 71. World Clock Time Zone Widget also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Ora's advantage is review sentiment (85% vs 69%) and rating (4.9 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. World Clock Time Zone Widget sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Ora sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
