# Code Runner Pro vs Stable

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Stable at 100% against Code Runner Pro's 50%. Stable also leads on price (Free vs $6.99) and rating (5.0 vs 3.8). Code Runner Pro's advantage is ratings volume (53 vs 7) and chart position (#30 vs #199). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Stable is free to download; Code Runner Pro costs $6.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Stable holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Code Runner Pro has 53 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 50% of Code Runner Pro's written reviews are positive against 100% of Stable's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
