# 13! vs Canvas Run

The clearest difference is ads: 13! at none against Canvas Run's shown. 13! also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 14.0). Canvas Run's advantage is ratings volume (35K vs 8.4K). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 13! sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Canvas Run sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Canvas Run holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 8.4K and 35K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 34% of 13!'s written reviews are positive against 29% of Canvas Run's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

13! ships an update every 10 days, Canvas Run fortnightly. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
