Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ParkProgress at none against Shot Pattern's 8. ParkProgress also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). Shot Pattern's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs monthly). On price there is nothing between them.

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 2.1K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Shot Pattern's written reviews are positive against 100% of ParkProgress's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Shot Pattern ships an update every 3 days, ParkProgress monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
