# ASICS Runkeeper vs Running Tracker App

The clearest difference is ads: Running Tracker App at none against ASICS Runkeeper's shown. Running Tracker App also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). ASICS Runkeeper's advantage is ratings volume (379K vs 6.4K) and chart position (#156 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ASICS Runkeeper sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Running Tracker App sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
