Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Shoot at 4.8 against Crunchyroll's 3.4. Shoot also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 8 days). Crunchyroll's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 86%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Shoot sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Crunchyroll sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $13.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Shoot holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 24 and 5 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of Shoot's written reviews are positive against 100% of Crunchyroll's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Shoot ships an update every 2 days, Crunchyroll every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
