Both are free to download. Clippd sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $25.00 per month and Shot Pattern sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Shot Pattern holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shot Pattern has 2K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Clippd's written reviews are positive against 68% of Shot Pattern's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Clippd ships an update every 2 weeks, Shot Pattern every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
