ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Uber Shape holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PAKO Forever has 8.5K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Uber Shape's written reviews are positive against 69% of PAKO Forever's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Uber Shape ships an update weekly, PAKO Forever every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
