Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: TrueRound at 100% against Shot Scope's 42%. TrueRound also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Shot Scope's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 6) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
