# Disputazo Kart vs Populus Run

The clearest difference is rating: Populus Run at 4.7 against Disputazo Kart's 4.0. Populus Run also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 1) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 2 months). Disputazo Kart's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Populus Run sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Disputazo Kart asks for nothing beyond the download.

Populus Run holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Populus Run has 1.6K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Disputazo Kart's written reviews are positive against 70% of Populus Run's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Disputazo Kart ships an update every 2 months, Populus Run every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
