# Shortcuts & Scriptable vs Charging Animation for Battery

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Charging Animation for Battery at 1.1K against Shortcuts & Scriptable's 20. Charging Animation for Battery also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.3). Shortcuts & Scriptable's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.2 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Shortcuts & Scriptable sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per month and Charging Animation for Battery sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Charging Animation for Battery holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Charging Animation for Battery has 1.1K ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of Shortcuts & Scriptable's written reviews are positive against 12% of Charging Animation for Battery's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Shortcuts & Scriptable ships an update every 2 months, Charging Animation for Battery every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
