Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Achievr at 4.3 against Shadow PC's 3.7. Achievr also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). Shadow PC's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, review sentiment, ads and iOS requirement 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. Achievr sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Shadow PC asks for nothing beyond the download.
Achievr holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2K and 553 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of Shadow PC's written reviews are positive against 37% of Achievr's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Shadow PC ships an update every 6 weeks, Achievr weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
