Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Flip at 84% against Flip Runner's 54%. Flip also leads on iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). Flip Runner's advantage is ratings volume (38K vs 266) and rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Flip sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Flip Runner sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Flip Runner holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flip Runner has 38K ratings behind it against 266, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Flip's written reviews are positive against 54% of Flip Runner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
