# Inrange vs Shot Pattern

The clearest difference is rating: Shot Pattern at 4.8 against Inrange's 3.7. Shot Pattern also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (2K vs 21). Inrange's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 8) and review sentiment (79% vs 68%). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Shot Pattern sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month. Inrange asks for nothing beyond the download.

Shot Pattern holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shot Pattern has 2K ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of Inrange's written reviews are positive against 68% of Shot Pattern's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Inrange ships an update every 3 weeks, Shot Pattern every 3 days. Both last shipped on September 23, 2026.
