Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TAPCA at none against ProShot's 2. TAPCA also leads on price ($0.99 vs $7.99) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). ProShot's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 66) and chart position (#40 vs unranked). On rating, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
