# 5K Run vs Sudor Interactive

Sudor Interactive also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). 5K Run's advantage is ratings volume (2.2K vs 31). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 5K Run sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Sudor Interactive sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
