# Time Left vs Line Run

The clearest difference is rating: Line Run at 5.0 against Time Left's 4.5. Line Run also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 73%). Time Left's advantage is ratings volume (246 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Time Left sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Line Run sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $39.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
