Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: RedCoach at 4.6 against UTSA The ‘Runner's 1.3. RedCoach also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (892 vs 46). UTSA The ‘Runner's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported). 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.
RedCoach holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 1.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RedCoach has 892 ratings behind it against 46, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 13% of UTSA The ‘Runner's written reviews are positive against 11% of RedCoach's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
UTSA The ‘Runner ships an update every 5 months, RedCoach weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
