# PatchDay vs ShotTraX

The clearest difference is rating: PatchDay at 5.0 against ShotTraX's 4.0. PatchDay also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). ShotTraX's advantage is review sentiment (60% vs 46%) and ratings volume (7 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

PatchDay holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of PatchDay's written reviews are positive against 60% of ShotTraX's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
