# Ratunek vs Suunto

The clearest difference is rating: Ratunek at 5.0 against Suunto's 4.0. Ratunek also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (11.4 vs 17.0). Suunto's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 32 months) and ratings volume (2.1K vs 3). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Ratunek holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Suunto has 2.1K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Ratunek's written reviews are positive against 25% of Suunto's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Ratunek ships an update every 32 months, Suunto fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
