# NightShooting vs BlackSight

The clearest difference is rating: NightShooting at 4.4 against BlackSight's 3.8. NightShooting also leads on device support (3 vs 1). BlackSight's advantage is review sentiment (73% vs 41%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NightShooting sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and BlackSight sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

NightShooting holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 16 and 44 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of NightShooting's written reviews are positive against 73% of BlackSight's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

NightShooting ships an update every 3 weeks, BlackSight every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
