Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Learn Tarot at 296 against ZenShelf's 2. Learn Tarot also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 17.0). ZenShelf's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 78%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On ads, in-app purchases, chart position and device support there is nothing between them.

Learn Tarot costs $3.99 and ZenShelf $0.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
ZenShelf holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Learn Tarot has 296 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Learn Tarot ships an update every 2 months, ZenShelf every 6 months. Both last shipped on October 18, 2026.
