Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Previs Shot at 80% against Name Badge's 25%. Previs Shot also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). Name Badge's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (119 vs 8). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Name Badge holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Name Badge has 119 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Name Badge's written reviews are positive against 80% of Previs Shot's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Name Badge ships an update every 3 months, Previs Shot every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
