# Run Tracker App vs Miles

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Miles at 89% against Run Tracker App's 23%. Miles also leads on rating (4.9 vs 2.5) and ratings volume (157 vs 2). Run Tracker App's advantage is monetization model (freemium vs paid) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Run Tracker App sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and Miles sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Miles holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Miles has 157 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 23% of Run Tracker App's written reviews are positive against 89% of Miles's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
