# Shot Pattern vs Golf Pro Tempo

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Shot Pattern at 2.1K against Golf Pro Tempo's 57. Shot Pattern also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 9 days) and chart position (#155 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Shot Pattern sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month and Golf Pro Tempo sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Shot Pattern against 4.7 for Golf Pro Tempo. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shot Pattern has 2.1K ratings behind it against 57, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 67% of Shot Pattern's written reviews are positive against 60% of Golf Pro Tempo's.

Shot Pattern ships an update every 3 days, Golf Pro Tempo every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
