Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Shinobi Go at 4.5 against UGREEN NAS's 4.1. Shinobi Go also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). UGREEN NAS's advantage is ratings volume (327 vs 6) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Shinobi Go holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UGREEN NAS has 327 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Shinobi Go's written reviews are positive against 53% of UGREEN NAS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Shinobi Go ships an update every 2 months, UGREEN NAS every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
