Most runners know they've run "a lot" of their city. They couldn't tell you which streets. MyRunMap turns your city into a challenge. Every street you run is marked complete, every city gets a completion percentage, and watching that number climb toward 100% is strangely hard to stop. Connect Strava or Garmin and years of history load onto one map immediately. New runs sync automatically. Or record straight from the app and watch streets complete as you run them - no desktop, no second app required. WHAT YOU GET FREE - One map of every street you've ever run - Per-city completion percentages. Tap any city to see exactly which streets are left - Activity import from Strava or Garmin with automatic sync - Native GPS recording that survives screen-off and backgrounding - Leaderboards for every city you've run in - Challenges: compete with friends to finish a neighborhood or rack up streets in a month - 40 achievements across streets, cities, competition and routes MYRUNMAP PREMIUM, FOR WHEN YOU'RE HOOKED - Route builder: plan your next run through streets you haven't done yet and export it to your watch - Create your own challenges and invite anyone - Extra map layers and watermark-free sharing - Connect Strava, Garmin, and Suunto at the same time Travel and see which streets of Tokyo or Lisbon you actually stepped on. Pick a neighborhood and close it out street by street. Chase 100% of your home town. Built by a runner who got tired of every running app treating every activity as a clean slate. Feedback goes to hello@myrunmap.com and we read everything. Run every street.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: MyRunMap at 5.0 against Run Mapper's 4.3. Run Mapper's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. MyRunMap sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Run Mapper asks for nothing beyond the download.
MyRunMap holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 7 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Run Mapper's written reviews are positive against 50% of MyRunMap's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
