# Orunning vs Tband

The clearest difference is ads: Orunning at none against Tband's shown. Orunning also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and ratings volume (123 vs 16). Tband's advantage is rating (3.3 vs 3.0) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence 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.

Tband holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Orunning has 123 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 23% of Orunning's written reviews are positive against 20% of Tband's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Orunning ships an update every 3 weeks, Tband every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
