Fast Shutter
Read full descriptionHide full description
FastShutter always opens to the shutter, and never into a menu, a mode, or a setting. It minimizes the time to your first photo. If the camera hardware is still warming up, tap the shutter anyway. FastShutter queues your tap and fires the instant the camera is ready. Use FastShutter often and the camera starts to feel consistently ready, so your attention stays on the moment instead of the interface. โข Always opens to the shutter, never a mode or menu โข Tap before the camera is ready and the shot still fires โข Hold to record video and also save a photo โข Upgrade to Premium for auto-capture on launch
TimerShot

Your photos can also be saved as a video, making it easy to share your creative process, favorite memories, or highlights on social media.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Fast Shutter at none against TimerShot's shown. TimerShot's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs weekly). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
