Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Shrines Guide at 4.6 against TOTK Gears Guide's 4.1. Shrines Guide also leads on ratings volume (3.2K vs 8). TOTK Gears Guide's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and review sentiment (83% vs 72%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Shrines Guide sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per year and TOTK Gears Guide sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Shrines Guide holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shrines Guide has 3.2K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Shrines Guide's written reviews are positive against 83% of TOTK Gears Guide's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Shrines Guide ships an update every 2 weeks, TOTK Gears Guide every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
