Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Mello at free with in-app purchases against Next Shot's subscription. Next Shot's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (48 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Mello sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and Next Shot sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Next Shot holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Next Shot has 48 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Mello ships an update every 4 days, Next Shot every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
