# Shadowrocket vs TR Save Editor

The clearest difference is rating: Shadowrocket at 4.5 against TR Save Editor's 3.8. Shadowrocket also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (12K vs 20). TR Save Editor's advantage is review sentiment (78% vs 57%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Shadowrocket costs $2.99 and TR Save Editor $2.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Shadowrocket holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shadowrocket has 12K ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Shadowrocket's written reviews are positive against 78% of TR Save Editor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Shadowrocket ships an update weekly, TR Save Editor every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 15, 2026 respectively.
