# Runtrip vs LiveRun

The clearest difference is review sentiment: LiveRun at 80% against Runtrip's 30%. LiveRun also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Runtrip's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (10 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Runtrip sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per month and LiveRun sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

LiveRun holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Runtrip has 10 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 30% of Runtrip's written reviews are positive against 80% of LiveRun's.

Runtrip ships an update every 10 days, LiveRun every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 11, 2026.
