The clearest difference is rating: Tread Timer at 5.0 against Run Run's 3.9. Tread Timer also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (monthly vs every 13 months). Run Run's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (38 vs 3). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
